Trustees’ Annual Report

Charitable objects

The object of the charity is to promote the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church.

Our vision

To be Christ’s Church in the community

Our mission: By proclaiming Christ through teaching and example:

• By welcoming and serving all through hospitality.

• By encouraging people to find God through worship, faith, and prayer.

• By providing a spiritual home and resources for the local community.

• By transforming Swindon and beyond with God’s hope and compassion.

We will do this with humility, grace, and respect, listening prayerfully to God and our neighbours.

Trustees’ Review of 2023

How did we meet our goals for 2023?

Old Town Partnership

Our Bible verse for the year was John 20: 21:

‘Jesus said to them again: “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you” ’ Our prayer for growth was: ‘God of mission, who alone brings growth to your church,

Send your Holy Spirit To give vision to our planning, wisdom to our actions and power to our witness. Help our church to grow in numbers, in spiritual commitment to you and in service to our Swindon community. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen’

This last year was a strong one for Christ Church with St Mary’s and the Old Town Partnership of Churches. Our Partnership Messy Church meeting on the first Sunday afternoon of each month grew in numbers to approximately 40. Our Partnership Lent Course over 6 Wednesday evenings in Christ Church: ‘who is Jesus? Christian Mission Today’ was widely appreciated. We were blessed to have 6 excellent speakers who opened up during the question-and-answer sessions. The series was professionally recorded and is available now on YouTube. Including those who joined us online, over 200 people participated which is a record for a Partnership Lent Series. All of our Partnership Churches have now reached Silver Level for the Arocha Creation Care awards and are working step by step towards the Gold Standard. We are doing all we can to work with our wider community partners in our Swindon Borough towards reaching net zero by 2030.

Presenting the Christian Faith

Looking back over the last year, we have much to be thankful for. By God’s grace it was very encouraging to see much varied growth in our congregation and in our service to our Swindon community. The PCC were very grateful to Liz Day for all her help in developing a contemplative, listening, prayerful DNA at Christ Church. A sermon series with supporting materials was presented in January around the themes of ‘Beloved’, ‘Behold’, ‘Belonging’ and Becoming’. On 21st May 2023 11 adults and one young person were confirmed at the Swindon Deanery Ecumenical Confirmation at St Mary’s Church, Purton. As a Partnership

Page 3 of 25

we were sad for the first time in living memory that there was not an Ecumenical Confirmation offered within our Old Town Partnership Churches. The Christian faith has been shared imaginatively in our Sunday worship, mid-week offerings and in our occasional offices of baptisms, weddings and funerals. The growth in Fellowship of Faith and the new Bible Encounter Group on Wednesday evenings in Christ Church has been especially encouraging with over 50 people being involved. We made full use of King Charles III’s Coronation to reach out to our Old Town community through a Partnership Service and a community Sunday lunch. The Church Weekend at Home on October 21/22 was great fun. We were blessed to have visiting us the Revd. Rich Cresswell who presented ‘The Bible in One Hour’ (available now on YouTube) and our Bristol Diocesan Bishop, Bishop Viv on the Sunday when she preached, presided at Holy Communion, took part in an hour’s Question Time ending with a delicious parish lunch served by the Fellowship of Faith. We celebrated together the 25th anniversary of the Revd. Canon Simon Stevenette as Vicar of the Parish on Friday October 6th with a Partnership Service, renewing our Christian commitment. The words used in the Anointing were ‘the light of Jesus shine in you and through you to others’.

Restructuring the Christ Church Site

The PCC has worked hard and invested financially in our staff team so we can better serve the people of our Old Town Parish and meet their spiritual needs. The PCC are especially encouraged by the very strong team synergy which is developing. We are very grateful to our all paid staff and volunteers advancing our ‘One Christ Church’ vision. The 10th anniversary of the Community Centre was celebrated in November. Grateful thanks to our Site Operations Manager, Chris Smith, and to all the team for all that they do on our behalf. There has been considerable increase in the varied events offered in Christ Church and in the Centre which has brought many hundreds of people onto our site and raised thousands of pounds for local charities. The 10th Beer and Cider Festival was the best yet, raising £16000. The arrival of Fever with their 3000 LED lights and classical string quartet has been widely appreciated. The sermon series in the Autumn on Meals with Jesus has been practically followed with many meals served in Christ Church and the Centre. The 6th Alone at Christmas event on Christmas Day was again the best yet with 153 people eating Christmas Dinner in the Centre or receiving a meal at home. The PCC has invested financially and in time in further developing the Christ Church site, with a new pathway around the church, better lighting, planting of trees and considerable progress on the Jubilee Memorial Garden. Grateful thanks to Ian Handy’s team, the Friends of Christ Church and our Creation Care Working Group for their hours of effort on our behalf.

Transforming Church Together

The PCC has continued to engage as much as possible with our Diocesan Strategy. We are encouraged that the values of openness, creativity, generosity and bravery, along with strategic priorities, are very much in synergy with our own Church Plan which has been developed by Ian Farr on behalf of the PCC. Progress has been made towards being part of a South Swindon Mission Area, along with Parks and Walcot, Wroughton and Wichelstowe. The PCC was disappointed not to receive the new self-supporting curate we anticipated at Petertide. On the other hand, we were delighted that Nitin Shinde was recommended for Ordination training at Sarum College. We continue to pray for Nitin and his family along with Will Stevenette on the second year of his ordination training at St Mellitus. Will returned from Birmingham to preach at Christ Church in the summer. After Nitin resigned as Churchwarden due to the Ordination training, the PCC appointed James Davies-Spratt and Simon Giles as Deputy Wardens, alongside Jim D’Avila. The PCC is very encouraged by the growth of vocations across the congregation 4 of our number are on the Diocesan ‘Exploring Christianity’ Lay Ministry training course. The PCC reformed the Children, Young People & Families Working Group and has done all we can to encourage growth in this vital area. The PCC is thankful to Sue Clack for coordinating our Sunday Club activities and to Jo Porter for all the creativity and joy she brings to All Age Worship presentations.

What are our Goals for 2024?

Old Town Partnership

Starting from our Bible verse for the Year Psalm 121 vv 1, 2:

’ I lift up my eyes to the hills…From where will my help come? My help comes from the Lord who made heaven and earth’ we will build on a strong theological foundation with much to look forward to. On the back of our prayer card to the congregation we have circulated a Partnership Prayer for Growth: ‘God of mission

Who alone brings growth to your church, Send your Holy Spirit To give vision to our planning, Wisdom to our actions And power to our witness. Help all our Partnership churches to grow in numbers, In spiritual commitment to you And in service to our Swindon community. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen’

Amongst many areas we look forward to playing our full part in our Old Town Partnership Mission Project supporting the work of Swindon Youth for Christ and Swindon Street Pastors in our Swindon area. We are very grateful to Diana Swann and Margaret Williams for all their work editing our Partnership Magazine. With Diana’s retirement this has been paused for the time being but as a Partnership we are committed to developing a new Communications Strategy, sharing our ecumenical vision with our own congregations and the people of Swindon. We will be offering a Lent series with small group resources around ‘Reconciliation’. We will continue to do all we can to support the growth of our Partnership Messy Church.

Presenting the Christian Faith

The PCC will continue to do all it can to encourage the growth of discipleship and new Christian vocations, supporting our many Christian leaders and growing new leaders as we present the Christian faith in our worship, teaching and community activities thoughtfully, compassionately, prayerfully and creatively. The PCC identified at the end of last year the need to further grow daytime ministry away from Sundays. This is to supplement the extra work being done at Fellowship of Faith, Bible Encounter Group, Home Groups and Men’s Breakfast. We expect to begin a Spiritual Reflection lunchtime group called ‘Treasure Together’, an Iona Social Justice Worship Gathering, a Bereavement Support Group and a Men’s Support Group. In addition, we are excited to be renewing our ‘Little Fishes’ parent and toddler group on Thursday mornings in the Community Centre. We will be further developing our welcome ministry, offering meals and hospitality in Christ Church with a new welcoming area with small kitchen facilities being installed. Our vicar, The Revd Canon Simon Stevenette, will be away on Extended Development Study Leave from May 1st to September 1st. We are very grateful to the staff team and Diocesan and Partnership colleagues for their help in covering worship ministry. We assure Simon, Nicola and their family of our prayers that they would have a fruitful break, returning spiritually and physically refreshed.

Restructuring the Christ Church Site

The PCC is committed to prioritising our Church Plan, developed by Ian Farr, ensuring we keep on track with our priorities, time allocation and finances. The work on the Jubilee Memorial Garden will be completed. We will consider the financing of the verger role. We are grateful to Alex Davies-Spratt and to those who assist her in providing welcome and support in the services and activities we offer. To help with our communication we will review our audio-visual facilities, upgrading where necessary.

Transforming Church Together

We will continue to play a full part in Transforming Church Together within our parish, Old Town Partnership, Swindon Deanery and Bristol Diocese. An Expression of Interest will be submitted for a Growing Faith Chaplain to support our vital relationships with schools and family homes. An application will be submitted to the Bristol Diocese for Nitin Shinde to return as a self-supporting minister at Christ Church following his Ordination in July 2025. We will further develop our prayer and healing ministry, particularly around supporting people living with mental health challenges. A decision will be reached regarding a South Swindon Mission Area and in particular how we can support our colleagues at Parks and Walcot and Wroughton and Wichestowe. This will involve the reality of poverty, knife crime and drugs alongside building community in a new housing area and in the challenges at the Deanery and Kingfisher School following the ending of the Diocesan Board Academies Trust (DBAT). The PCC were delighted to host on Advent Sunday evening the Bristol Diocesan Service of Welcome for our new Bishop of Swindon. The Right Revd. Neil Warwick. The PCC will do all it can to welcome Bishop Neil and Helen when they move into our parish in April. We look forward to Biship Neil’s first official visit to Christ Church on Mothering Sunday 10th March 10am.

May God bless us during this coming year so that we can be a blessing to others, The Revd Canon Simon Stevenette On behalf of Christ Church PCC 17th January 2024

Buildings and Site Report

The main areas of work of the Buildings Committee are summarised below:

• Faculty applications for the camera and screen monitors in Christ Church have been submitted as part of the ongoing work to maintain and improve the AV facility, including live streaming.

• Ongoing maintenance and upgrade work in numbers 31 and 32 Cricklade Street has included the installation of extract fans. This is part of the ongoing effort to control severe damp issues.

• Work in support of Eco group effort to manage the grass cutting regime for biodiversity in the grassed areas in the churchyard continues.

• Work continues in support of Ian Handy’s team, for the ongoing development of the second phase of Jubilee Memorial Garden, including faculty application and approval.

• Routine work continues to implement safety checks and certification of our gas boilers and

electrical systems, including the vestry alarm. Additional works have included remedial work on the earthing of the lightening conductor system at Christ Church, as part of the insurance triennial reviews, and the replacement of a failed inverter in the solar panel system in the Community Centre.

• Effort continues in the management of gas and electricity consumption in, and suppliers for, Christ Church, St Mary’s and the Community Centre. Following an energy audit in October 2023, sponsored by Bristol Diocese, options are being investigated for carbon net zero by 2030.

• Following cold weather in 2023 (and in 2024) some local patches of stonework forming the decorative surrounds of the main west doors spalled and fell onto the roadway outside the doors. Investigations were carried out to confirm that this wasn’t a significant safety hazard but further work to stabilise this will be needed. Routine work continues to keep the main doors, especially in Christ Church, free and operational.

• As resources allow, improvements in the lighting in the car park remain a priority.

James Gare FCA, DChA, Monahans, Hermes House, Firefly Avenue, Swindon, SN2 2GA The Parochial Church Council is a corporate body established by the Church of England.

The PCC operates under the Parochial Church Council Powers Measure.

The PCC is a Registered Charity no. 1134032

Structure, management and governance:

The Trustees

The Trustees of Christ Church are the PCC, which has the responsibility of co-operating with the Vicar in promoting the work of the Church in the parish.

The appointment of PCC members is governed by and set out in the Church Representation Rules. The PCC

is responsible for a wide range of activities affecting the parish including, but not restricted to, compliance with statutes and legislation and the creation of suitable policies and procedures to protect those

considered

to be vulnerable. It is important that the PCC adopts and implements suitable training procedures to ensure that members are equipped to handle the challenges this represents. In addition to the dissemination of appropriate reading matter, the PCC actively encourages individuals to attend training courses arranged by the Diocese or Deanery and to report back to the PCC as a body.

The PCC actively encourages members of its congregation to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC.

The PCC has:

A Standing Committee – contact – PCC Secretary

And 7 subcommittees that report back to the PCC:

Page 9 of 25

o Buildings and Site Development – contact Stephen Grosvenor/Michael Palmer

o Mission and Evangelism – Ailsa Palmer

o Church Family – contact Anne Macmillan

o Finance and Governance – contact Daniel Pitt/Andrew Yeoward

o Children and Young Families – contact Sue Clack

o Community Centre Events and Networks Group – Contact Chris Smith

o Eco Group – contact Anne Grainger

The PCC has delegated authority to the Standing Committee to make day-to-day decisions when it is not practicable in terms of timescale to wait for the full PCC to convene and decide. This delegation may be withdrawn by the PCC at any time, and any decisions made by the Standing Committee under this authority must be approved by the PCC at the next suitable opportunity.

Trusts related to the PCC

o Swindon United Charities o Christ Church Burial Board

o The Friends of Christ Church

Risk assessment

The Trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. The PCC encouraged members of the congregation to abide by the lone working policy. The PCC agreed a policy on vulnerable adults.

The PCC endeavours to undertake risk assessments for events it manages.

The PCC has a child protection policy.

The PCC has reviewed the major risks facing them and systems/procedures have been/are being established to manage those risks.

Public benefit

We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities.

Financial Review

Charitable activities

The Community Centre had continued to be a large focus for our engagement with our local community. There were many regular groups that meet there including: exercise (for children and adults); dancing (for toddlers, children and adults); groups from other churches; a sewing group; a watercolour painting group; and many others. The outreach activities have resumed and back to pre-pandemics level, particularly helping the many lonely people in our area including the weekly afternoon tea on Tuesdays.

We have continued with policies established in 2004, of our designated mission giving being restricted to the amount collected in the offerings on special Mission Giving Sundays. On these weeks we have a focus on the work of the different organisations that we support. The total mission-giving contribution in this

Page 10 of 25

challenging year was £1,000 including gift-aid tax recovery which was sent to support the work of SHAP and WILLOWS.

Our net parish share contribution was set at £105,000 at the beginning of the year. This contribution level

was unchanged from the value in 2021 and reflected the reasonable expectations we had of our income levels recovering after the pandemic.

The budgeted parish share contribution for 2024 was also set at £105,000, matching the request received from Bristol Diocese.

Fund-raising

Some of the usual fundraising activities including the beer festival were well received by the communities this year, contributing significantly to our funds. The beer festival contributed £26,056 and other one-off events such as jazz festival contributed a further £10,014.

General, Endowment and Restricted Funds

There is a revaluation of the church’s properties (Cricklade Road and Victoria Road) this year combined with gains on shares held the total gain on investment was £220,535 for the general fund and £420,361 for the endowment fund.

Church Reordering/Development and Renewal Projects

Generous donations towards the continuation of the development and renewal of the churches and grounds had been received in previous years. In particular, the refurbishment of the Rose Garden continued under generous donations from an anonymous benefactor. The £7,000 grant from the Kingshill Trust received in 2021 continued to support the development of our Audio-visual capabilities. These credits and consequent expenses were attributed to the Property/Maintenance and Development & Renewal restricted funds. Total spending on church reordering is £10,605 this year.

Income

Total receipts of unrestricted funds in 2023 were £349,603, up from £305,802 in 2022. This is largely explained by ‘getting back to normal’ after coronavirus lockdowns and improved stewardship campaign of the church with the congregations. In addition, receipts for restricted funds, including Property & Maintenance and Organ funds, was £2,000, up from £1,500 in 2022. No legacies were received in 2023.

The “donation income” (see note 2a in the accounts below) was significantly higher (18%) than last year, indicating we should continue focus on our stewardship campaign and improve communication in 2024. Thank you very much to all who have supported the PCC during 2023, in which nearly £112,138 was

received

in donations.

The Community Centre lettings were £91,634 back to the normal level of services activities.

Expenditure

£384,267 was spent to provide the Christian Ministry of Christ Church and St Mary’s Churches during 2023. This compares with £355,954 spent in 2022 and once again reflects the significantly increased activity in the church and community centre as we came out of the pandemic. This figure includes our Parish Share contribution of £105,000, unchanged from 2021. Other increased costs included energy costs, and maintenance of investment properties.

Page 11 of 25

Reserves policy

It is PCC policy to maintain (whenever possible) sufficient general funds, equating to four months of ‘normal’ turnover, in order to cover unplanned situations that may occur from time to time. This is measured as one third of the budgeted income for the year. The General Fund Income Budget for 2023 is £180,728 so four months of this would equate to £60,242.

The total funds held at 31 December 2023 were £1,666,510, of which £1,196,448 was held in Unrestricted

Funds (see Note 6 in the accounts below). However, £611,131 of that is tied up in the Tangible Assets (i.e. the Community Centre) (Notes 5a & 6), £496,808 in investments (Note 6) and £25,145 is in designated funds for the ongoing running of the Community Centre.

This leaves a reserve of £63,364 which is £3,122 over to the 2024 reserves target. We will continue to monitor this situation during the year.

Environmental, Social & Governance Policy

In line with many organisations, we wish our funds to be deposited in ethically-oriented funds that seek to encourage systematic change in the way the environmental, societal and governance aspects of society are managed. It is therefore our current policy to invest surplus funds with the CBF Church of England Deposit Fund. The fund is managed in accordance with the policies of the Church of England’s Ethical Investment Advisory Group.
