## **Trustees Report to Charity Commission FYE 31/8/2020** ## **Introduction** This report covers the activities of the Church for the 12m period ended 31 August 2020. The affairs of the Church are managed by the Church Council (the ‘Managing Trustees’), the members of which are also the charity Trustees. They are responsible for ensuring compliance with the principles and practice of Methodism and with the legislation relating to charities. The latter includes registration, keeping proper accounts and making returns to the Charity Commission. ## **Aims and organisation** The Mission of the Methodist Church as a whole is 'to respond to the gospel of God's love in Christ and to live out its discipleship through Worship, Learning and Caring, Service to others and Evangelism'. In response to this calling and to better equip the local Church to meet those aims, the Church created 8 Mission Teams during 2017 to concentrate on specific areas of our Church Strategy, namely, Caring, Communications, Discipleship, Family and Youth, Finance, Outreach, Property and Worship. The leaders of the Mission Teams report through a Leadership Team (responsible for day-to-day matters) to Church Council. The Church prepares an Annual Report on its Mission and activities which is presented to the wider congregation annually at the General Church Meeting for member approval. The approved Vision Statement of the local church (as approved by Church Council in June 2015) is ' to be a church that is known for its Spirit-Led discipleship and its practical care in the community ' and thus the Mission Team structure reflects our calling. ## **Minister’s report on Church Activities - April 2020** Once again, I find myself writing this report in the midst of huge turmoil and upheaval – this time through something that has come upon us uninvited – a global pandemic. Again, in a different way we find ourselves caught up in uncertain circumstances that seem certain to impact what it means to be Christ’s Church in the world today. My prayer is that we will draw on what we are and the things that have shaped our journey over the past year to build what we need to be going forward in faith. As we look back over the past year, I am encouraged by the way London Road continues to engage with its calling to be Christ in this community today. From the many hours of faithful service so freely offered from Sunday services to Wednesday Lunch Clubs, from Prayer Meetings to Messy Church, from Pastoral Visiting to Night Shelter, from flower arranging to Sunday lunches and so many more in-between we are truly seeking to be Christ’s light and life here in Horsham. Of course, one opportunity for celebration has been afforded us through the faithful service of David & Jane Casey, who together with others in the congregation offer such vital ministry to the Syrian Refugees in our Community. Methodist Insurance has created an award to celebrate volunteers in the Church Community and, whilst David & Jane reluctantly allowed us to put their names forward, we are delighted to celebrate their achievement in being chosen as our regional winners for the Southern & Islands region. The prize that comes with the award is a £1,000 donation to Church funds and so we have been doubly blessed. Their names will go forward for the national award which will be announced sometime in April – perhaps even in time for our General Church Meeting! David & Jane were also given funds to celebrate their award and they have chosen to do so by celebrating with all those who volunteer in all kinds of different ways in the life of the Church. Look out for details and do join in. One of the more significant aspects of the past year has been in the invitation to join in the conversation about the 2019 Conference Report on Marriage & Relationships: God in Love Unites Us. This is a far-reaching report that seeks to explore the whole extent of human relating and sexuality with a view to discerning to what extent the Methodist Church of Great Britain might become even more inclusive in its stance on these issues. Here at London Road we engaged with the report over a period of three to four months by making available copies of the report and study guide for everyone; we covered aspects of the report in three different Sunday services; two of these were followed by congregational meetings in the week following the service; all our House Groups engaged with the report over two months; a final congregational meeting was held in November and in January opportunity was given for members to give personal feedback in writing as they wished. The general consensus was that, despite there being significant obstacles for some, particularly in regard to changing the definition of marriage in the church to include same-sex marriage, the report was favourably received and the proposed amendments to various resolutions to enable the church to move in this direction were accepted. We were not asked to express our opinion in a vote, but a report has been sent to the Circuit Meeting and on to Synod. The Conference Report will be debated and voted upon at our Spring Synod and Summer Conference. (At the time of writing both these gatherings are subject to conditions pertaining at the time regarding the Coronavirus pandemic) We will await the outcome of these deliberations which will shape how London Road will be able to move forward in response to Conference decisions. Another aspect of our life together that I wish to highlight is our ongoing journey in shaping our understanding of ministry and mission in the life of London Road. Last year I mentioned how the Leadership Team, through their engagement with the book The Shaping of Things to Come, had been enthused by the authors’ unpacking of Paul’s five-fold description of mission and ministry in Ephesians 4. Well, the journey is begun, and we will be exploring APEST – what it means to be Apostolic, Prophetic, Evangelical, Shepherding & Teaching – in our endeavours both individually and collectively here at London Road. Rob Pitt and Peter Bramhill got us off to a good start in January and February exploring being Apostolic and in May I will be picking up the threads in terms of being Prophetic and between us we will continue through the course of the rest of the year to explore and unpack each one. It is my prayer that we will be able to encourage each of you to understand and own your God-given gifts and opportunities to help shape the life of this church so that its ministry reaches out and touches others and draws them deeper into the love and life of God. Finally, just to say a huge thank you to the Rev Sue Conroy and Philip Reeves who together with the Leadership Team enabled me to have one of my most detached and unaffected sabbaticals in the course of my ministry. Angela and I spent six weeks in South Africa over Christmas, and I followed that up with some explorations in the ’s Enneagram and a six day individually guided retreat at St Bueno in North Wales. It was really good to be able to relax knowing that the church was in good hands both pastorally and from a leadership ’m point of view. Thank you to everyone who helped make that so. I sure there’ll be more to follow as a result of my sabbatical journey so do watch this space! ## **Report on Financial Outturn** The year-end accounts to 31 August 2020 have been approved by Church Council and Independently Examined. Standard Form of Accounts (SFA) is the standardised way of presenting accounts to the Circuit and the Charity Commission and complies with the relevant legislation and accounting requirements. There have been some presentational changes made to the SFA for the year ended 31 August 2020 and these are explained in the order in which they appear in the accounts. The regular donations made by some people which LRMC then donates to the 3 nominated charities, Mission in Britain and the Fund for World Mission are now shown in the Restricted Funds along with the Gift Aid that is claimed on those donations. The church has several internal organisations (Wednesday Lunch Club, Ladies Wednesday Club, Parents & Toddlers and Messy Church) that have separate funds which are not included in the church’s bank and deposit accounts. The income and expenditure reported in Note 13 to the SFA are now also included in the Restricted Funds and their balances at the end of the year are also included in the relevant lines. There has been the opportunity for some confusion in the past as to how the various pots of money should be classified between Unrestricted Funds, Designated Funds and Restricted Funds. To ensure clarity, from now on, the **Designated Funds** will comprise: Property Development Fund, Memorials Fund, Benevolent Fund and Church Mission Fund **Restricted Funds** will comprise: Legacies, Regular charity donations and internal organisations **Unrestricted Funds** will be everything else apart from the monies for charities and other organisations deriving from retiring collections, events, special collections and funeral collections. For these we are only receiving money as agents for those organisations and it is never money belonging to London Road. These are reported in Note 8 to the SFA The Prior Year Adjustment implements this classification, adjusts the brought forward balance to include the internal organisations and corrects some minor errors in the prepayments and debtors and in the creditors. The other gains and losses are changes to the property value based on the updated insurance assessment of rebuilding costs and an addition of £200,000 for the land value as previously approved by Church Council and as required by Methodist Church guidelines. The church normally depreciates capital expenditure on the building and equipment over 5 years but we will depreciate the windows over 10 years as they have a much longer life and are guaranteed for 10 years. Matters to note: - Resulting from the pandemic we have had significant periods when we have been unable to worship face to face and, in line with Government and Methodist guidelines, have had to cease the community hiring of our premises. - This has affected the way in which our members are able to make their mission giving but also led to the loss of significant income from hirings/lettings. - We therefore undertook an extensive exercise with our members to seek and encourage giving by alternative (noncash) means including online methods via cheque/direct transfer and CAF Donate. This has been very successful and sustained the mission giving. - As a result of an early and critical review of all unnecessary property/hiring related expenses, we have also managed to broadly mitigate the loss of the hiring income contribution to our general funding profile, certainly during the period we remain closed. - The challenge (for the next financial period) is how we will manage a changed financial profile as we come out of the pandemic. - Overall, we achieved a surplus of £1,145 v budget deficit £7,938 (before the agreed allocation of 30% letting income to the Property Development Fund (‘PDF’). - Income - Key positive variation was the known reduction in letting income at £10,942 (budget £18,000) due to the closure. This compares to letting income of £16,527 in the previous year. Overall income for the year was c£10k below budget. - Expenditure - overall spending was c£19,000 under budget mainly due to planned lower than budgeted property repair, renewals and related expenses incurred in the period following closure. - Balance Sheet - Following the allocation of 30% of letting income to the property development fund reserve, the overall general fund deficit for the year is £2,455 (budget £13,338) reducing the net worth to £30,137 but still well in excess of the stated reserves policy to maintain 3 months operating expenditure. - The balance sheet tangible fixed assets figure reflects the valuations following assessment by the Methodist Insurance Company in the previous financial year. - Sundry creditors, in addition to uncleared payments, relates mainly to retiring collections and donations to be disbursed and Sundry debtors mainly to the prepaid Circuit Assessment for the following financial period and HMRC Gift Aid monies due in. ## **Risk Management and Governance** Any major risks have been identified and recorded by the Trustees, with professional advice taken, as required. In particular, there is a regular and ongoing review of our Safeguarding obligations by our Safeguarding Officer; of ‘Lone-Worker’ activities and our Health and Safety policy by our H&S Officer. These policies are reviewed and updated every 3 years. At the beginning of the pandemic, the Managing Trustees set up a Coronavirus Response Group to review, advise, implement and manage all Covid obligations arising from either the implementation of Government guidelines or that of The Methodist Church of GB. This group has reported regularly to both the Managing Trustees and the Leadership Team. The Church is committed to ensuring implementation of Connexional Safeguarding Policy; government legislation; guidance and safe practices in the Church and Circuit through the provision of support, advice, guidance and training for lay and ordained people so that they are clear and confident to carry out their roles and responsibilities. ## **Safeguarding** Every person has a value and dignity which comes directly from the creation of male and female in God’s own image and likeness. Christians see this potential as fulfilled by God’s re-creation of us in Christ. Among other things this implies a duty to value all people as bearing the image of God and therefore to protect them from harm. "Methodist Connexional practice outlines commitment to the following principles: - the care and nurture of, and respectful pastoral ministry with, all children, young people and adults - the safeguarding and protection of all children, young people and adults when they are vulnerable • the establishing of safe, caring communities which provide a loving environment where there is informed vigilance as to the dangers of abuse. • We will carefully select and train all those with any responsibility within the Church, in line with Safer Recruitment principles, including the use of criminal records disclosures and registration with the relevant vetting and barring schemes. • We will respond without delay to every complaint made which suggests that an adult, child or young person may have been harmed, cooperating with the police and local authority in any investigation. • We will seek to work with anyone who has suffered abuse, developing with them an appropriate ministry of informed pastoral care. - We will seek to challenge any abuse of power, especially by anyone in a position of trust. • We will seek to offer pastoral care and support, including supervision and referral to the proper authorities, to any member of our church community known to have offended against a child, young person or vulnerable adult. • In all these principles we will follow legislation, guidance and recognised good practice" London Road Methodist Church commits itself to ensuring the implementation of Connexional Safeguarding Policy; government legislation, guidance and safe practice in the church. The Church commits itself to the provision of support, advice and training for lay and ordained people that will ensure people are clear and confident about their roles and responsibilities in safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and adults who may be vulnerable. ## **Reserves Policy** The approved reserves policy during this accounting period was to hold a minimum sum in general reserves equivalent to 3 months' average expenditure or such sum sufficient to meet unforeseen major expenditure on the Church building. Church Council has agreed that the reserves policy definition and calculation should be reviewed in the subsequent financial period as a result of the financial impact of the pandemic. ## **Static Information** Full Name of Charity: London Road Methodist Church ('LRMC'), Horsham Charity Commission number: 1134052 Date of Registration (as a charity): 3 February 2010 Communication address: 41 London Road, Horsham, West Sussex, RH12 1AN Treasurer: Mr Philip Reeves Financial bookkeeper: Mr Fred King It is confirmed that Philip Reeves, as a Managing Trustee, acted as the principal officer overseeing the day-to-day financial management and accounting during the financial year.
