NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
The Trustees are pleased to present their annual report, together with financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31[st] December 2021.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the current Church Accounting Regulations. The trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland published on 16 July 2014 (as amended by Update Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016) .
Aims and purposes
Nunthorpe PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the Incumbent in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical. It also has maintenance responsibilities for the Church of St. Mary the Virgin (including the Church yard and Millennium Garden); Church Lane, Nunthorpe; St. Mary’s Church Hall, Morton Carr Lane, Nunthorpe and 15 Ripon Road, Nunthorpe (the Curate’s house).
Objectives and activities
The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of the parish community at St. Mary’s – both Church and Hall. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish and makes suggestions on how our services can involve the many groups that live within our parish. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament.
Achievements and performance
Our aim is to promote the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. We have two places of worship – the Church of St. Mary the Virgin in Church Lane, Nunthorpe and St. Mary’s Church Hall in Morton Carr Lane which houses a dedicated Chapel within its confines.
COVID Pandemic
Church activity has been severely disrupted for the majority of 2021 as a result of the COVID pandemic that has restricted normal life for the entire community.
Worship and prayer
We began 2021 with a pattern of morning services in the Hall and evening services in the Church. However, the high number of Covid cases in the community caused anxiety and the decision was made to close the church from Sunday 17[th] January for the duration of the lockdown.
1
The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Mary the Virgin Nunthorpe Trustees’ Annual Report
We reopened in Holy Week with a 3-hour service of reflection for Good Friday. This was followed by three joyous Easter services with the vigil on Easter Eve, a dawn service outside the church building and a Sunday morning service in church. There was a booking system for the indoor services which worked well and in total 86 people attended the three services .
The morning services then returned to the Hall where greater social distancing was possible until July, when lower Covid numbers meant that we felt confident about returning this service to Church. We have retained one main Parish Eucharist a month in the hall on the 4[th] Sunday and this is followed by refreshments and a cake sale. The evening and midweek services continued to be held in Church throughout.
At the end of December 2021 there were 112 parishioners on the electoral roll of St Mary’s.
Looking at the Sundays when we were open in 2021, the usual Sunday attendance was 52 adults and 5 children. These numbers are lower than in 2019 (67 and 9 respectively) but are an improvement on last year (42 adults and 3 children).
It was a joy to be able to have a more normal run up to Christmas than in 2020 with the Christingle and Carol services both being held in person, and both well attended with a good mixture of regulars and newcomers.
In total 131 adults and 51 children were able to attend the Christmas Eve and Christmas Day services. This is an improvement on last year, partly due to the fact that we were once again able to hold the Crib Services in person.
Café Church restarted in Autumn 2021 and had been enjoyed by those who attend with a particularly good turn-out for the Pet Service held close to the feast of St Francis in October 2021. We also launched a new initiative for families called the Pilot Service. This initially attracted good numbers, but the attendance reduced greatly towards the end of the year and its future is now under review.
Through baptism we thank God for the gift of life, in marriage public vows are exchanged with God’s Blessing and through funeral services friends and family express their grief, give thanks for the life now complete and commend the person into God’s keeping. In 2021, we celebrated 26 baptisms, 12 weddings and 18 funerals and 12 burials of ashes .
After a challenging year, we give thanks to God for his faithfulness and for one another. In particular we are thankful for the way in which members of the church community have supported one another through good times and bad. We pray for God’s wisdom and guidance in 2022 as we recommit ourselves to being God’s people in this place and to sharing his love with others.

Deanery Synod
Two members of the PCC sit on Deanery Synod. This provides the PCC with an important link between the parish and the wider structures of the church.
Our buildings
A Quinquennial inspection of the church was carried out in 2020; the report was positive and highlighted only minor repairs, which were carried out during 2021. The Church Hall has proved popular for bookings which have accelerated through the year, following the earlier closures.
The house in Ripon Road is home to our Curate and her family.
Pastoral care
The pastoral team continued to keep in touch with church members by phone during 2021 but it also became possible to meet in person more easily and home communions have become possible once again. In the Autumn a number of the pastoral team worked together to organise and deliver a bereavement course. The course was attended by three individuals and the feedback was very positive.
Mission & evangelism
The SET team were unable to hold events during most of the year but latterly were able to organise a hugely successful Christmas Fayre at the Church Hall that provided an opportunity to meet and enjoy each other’s company as well as raising much needed resources. The 100 club and summer draw also proved successful
The Pram Service was able to re-start its activities in the autumn of 2021.
Ecumenical relationships
The church is a member of Churches Together in Nunthorpe and Marton. Several events have taken place throughout the year, including a very successful prayer walk.

FINANCIAL REVIEW 2021
The following statement of financial activities for the year ended 31[st] December 2021, has been independently examined in accordance with Church Accounting Regulations 2006.
UNRESTRICTED INCOME AND EXPENDITURE
2021 has been a difficult year. Like many other organisations the COVID pandemic has had a significant impact on our finances, but the Church community has coped well. Income has been resilient, especially in the latter part of the year, and expenditure has been reduced due to COVID closures. We ended the year with a deficit broadly in line with expectations of £3,637; which is an improved position from the previous 2 years, reflecting the combination of the recovery in income levels and a reduced freewill offer to the Diocese
A summary of the position for the last three years is given in Table 1:

Giving by Parishioners
Table 2 below shows total giving by parishioners over the last 7 years. It is pleasing to note that the total collected has returned to pre-pandemic levels.
Monthly Standing Orders have continued their gradual increase reflecting a small number of
4
The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Mary the Virgin Nunthorpe Trustees’ Annual Report
additional contributors and increased contributions from a few existing donors.
Planned giving via weekly envelopes continues to fall, and in 2021 was £4,170 compared with £4,667 in 2020. Over recent years this method of giving has reduced substantially.
Occasional ‘plate’ giving has increased since 2020, but still remains well below levels reached in previous years. However, a significant additional contributor to our income in 2021 has been through the retention of money from collections at baptisms, which previously was distributed externally. With gift aid this has contributed £1,690 in 2021
Table 2 – Giving by Parishioners 2015 to 2021
| Year | Total Giving £ |
Planned £ |
|---|---|---|
| 2015 | 50,823 | 32,559 |
| 2016 | 49,357 | 29,857 |
| 2017 | 46,958 | 29,942 |
| 2018 | 51,026 | 32,141 |
| 2019 | 52,845 | 34,804 |
| 2020 | 49,525 | 35,517 |
| 2021 | 53,839 | 37,477 |
Wedding and Funeral Fees
Income from wedding and funeral fees has risen in 2021. There were 12 weddings during the year; an increase of 7 over 2020, whereas funeral income remained stable. So far 21 wedding deposits have been received for 2022 and 2023, which is encouraging for the future sustainability of this income stream
Social Events
Social events continued to be impacted by COVID, but have nevertheless contributed significantly to Church Funds. A successful draw raised £1263 and the 100 Club a further £744. A very well attended Christmas Fayre raised £2,285 and various sales of cakes etc brought the overall total raised to £4,552.
Church Hall
Income from Church Hall use increased by £1,353 over the 2020 level, but still remained materially lower than pre-pandemic levels. This was expected given closure of the Hall in the earlier part of the year, but it is encouraging that usage picked up towards the year end and if continued into 2022 then income from this source should increase.
Other
This includes donations from individuals as well as furlough payments and income from product sales. Two significant donations received during the year have offset the reduced
5
The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Mary the Virgin Nunthorpe Trustees’ Annual Report
income from Club’s, which historically have provided significant net income for Church Funds
Freewill Offer
At a PCC meeting held in May 2020 we considered our overall financial position as a result of the pandemic, and decided reluctantly to reduce our Freewill Offer to the Diocese by £10,000 to £55,000 for 2020. The same offer was made in 2021 following a further review of our finances in November 2020. It should be noted that during 2021 a further £5,263 has been passed to the Diocese from the receipt of wedding and funeral fees.
Other expenditure
This includes all expenditure other than the Freewill Offer, including Utility and Insurance costs. A key feature has been expenditure on boiler and associated repairs at both the Hall and Church, which together have added more than £3000 to our costs. More detail on this expenditure stream is provided in the notes to the accounts.
Conclusion
The COVID pandemic has had far reaching effects on all aspects of Church life, including its financial position. The PCC took early action to mitigate this by sharing the financial burden with the Diocese through a £10,000 reduction in our Freewill Offer in 2020. This reduced level was continued in 2021, which together with resilient income levels has protected the PCC’s reserves from a damaging decline.
RESTRICTED INCOME AND EXPENDITURE
The PCC holds restricted funds which can only be used on the purposes for which they were established. A new restricted Projector Fund was established during 2021 to collect and fully distribute a very generous donation received to purchase a new projector for the Church Hall. The new projector has now been installed. The total sum held in the 4 remaining restricted funds as at 31 December 2021 amounts to £3,114
BANK BALANCES
Our bank balances decreased in the year from £63,802 in 2020 to £55,498 on 31 December 2021
RESERVES POLICY
It is the policy of the PCC to review the balances held in reserves on an annual basis. Reserves are held as ‘Designated Funds’ (i.e., available to be spent at the discretion of the PCC if the spending meets the intention for which the Fund is designated) and a ‘General Fund,’ which can be used to meet day to day costs subject to conditions set out below.
As at the 31st December 2021 the PCC had two Funds remaining, as follows:
6
The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Mary the Virgin Nunthorpe Trustees’ Annual Report
A GENERAL FUND , currently £26,339 , available to supplement day to day costs, subject to this being part of an agreed budget that seeks to identify longer term income streams to meet future recurrent expenditure, or to meet specified non-recurrent costs such as new enhancements, replacement equipment or specific activity specified by the PCC. It is expected that this fund will be further depleted during 2022 as the effects of the pandemic continue to be felt.
A DESIGNATED CAPITAL MAINTENANCE FUND readily available to ensure that all properties are compliant with Health and Safety regulations and are always a secure and safe environment. The sum available on 31 December 2021 was £31,014 . Within this fund a Special ‘Boiler Replacement Reserve’ amounting to £18,500 has been identified, given the likely need to replace boilers in our three premises in the future.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE and MANAGEMENT
The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. Nunthorpe PCC consists of the Incumbent, curate, the churchwardens and a reader plus up to 3 Deanery Synod representatives and a maximum of 12 lay representatives elected by those members of the congregation who are on the Electoral Roll of the Church. All Church attendees are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll in order to be eligible to stand for election to the PCC.
The PCC members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance in the parish including deciding on how the funds of the PCC are to be spent.
The full PCC held 8 meetings during the year. One of these was an extraordinary meeting held in January 2021 to approve the temporary cessation of in person Sunday worship. All the meetings were held on Zoom. This worked well and attendance has been high.
The PCC has a number of teams which deals with a particular aspect of parish life. These include Fabric, Social Events and Pastoral, each of which reports to the PCC. All PCC members are encouraged to serve on at least one committee and non-PCC members can be co-opted.
The Standing Committee consists of the Incumbent, the curate, the churchwarden, Hon. Secretary and Hon. Treasurer. They meet to deal with urgent matters and to set the agenda for the next PCC meeting.
The 2021 APCM took place via zoom on 23[rd] March.
Shared Ministry
“Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God”. I John 4:7
I would like to thank everyone in our community for the way in which you have coped with the many changes of the last year as we closed for worship in January and reopened at Easter. It has been a blessing to be able to use the church hall for worship at times when greater social distancing has been required and also for services with some opportunities for fellowship. It has also been good to re-establish regular Sunday morning worship in the church and to celebrate the major festivals there.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
Note 1 Accounting Policies General information and basis of preparation
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued in March 2018, the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015.
The and does not include a cash flow statement on the grounds that it is applying FRS 102 Section 1A.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’. This departure has involved following the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in March 2018 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
Funds
Restricted funds represent
(a) Income from trusts or endowments which may be expended only on those Restricted objects provided in the terms of the trust or bequest, and
(b)Donations or grants received for a specific object or invited by the PCC for a specific object. The funds may only be expended on the specific object for which they were given. Any balance remaining unspent at the end of each year must be carried forward as a balance on that fund. The PCC does not usually invest separately for each fund. Where there is no separate investment, interest is apportioned to individual funds on an average balance basis. Unrestricted funds are general funds which can be used for PCC ordinary purposes

The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Mary the Virgin Nunthorpe Trustees’ Annual Report
NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
Note 1 Accounting Policies (continued)
Incoming resources
Income is recognised when an inflow of economic benefit is probable.
Planned giving, collections and donations are recognized when received. Tax refunds are recognized when the incoming resource to which they relate is received. Grants and legacies are accounted for when the PCC is legally entitled to the amounts due. Dividends and interest are accounted for when receivable. All other income is recognised when it is receivable, apart from Church Hall lettings where outstanding invoices are now accrued in the accounts. All incoming resources are accounted for gross.
Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised when the outflow of economic benefit is probable.
Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if the payment of the grant is probable. The diocesan ‘freewill offer’ is accounted for when due. Amounts received specifically for mission are dealt with as restricted funds. All other expenditure is generally recognised when payable, and is accounted for gross including VAT which cannot be recovered. Where exact amounts are not known at accounts closure best estimates are accrued.
Fixed assets
Consecrated and benefice property is not included in the accounts in accordance with s.10 (2)(a) of the Charities Act 2011.
Movable church furnishings held by the vicar and churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal are inalienable property, listed in the church’s inventory, which can be inspected (at any reasonable time), any such assets are not valued in the financial statements as they are written off when incurred.
No original cost information is available for the Church Hall, but has recently enjoyed substantial refurbishment. This Hall is regarded as specialised property and under FRS102 is valued at depreciated replacement cost, which is the value of £1,459,750 provided by our insurance company surveyor in 2017. The Ripon Road premises is also included at its valuation figure obtained in 2017. At each year end the there is an assessment as to whether the freehold land and buildings should be written down (because the carrying value is more than the recoverable amount).
Depreciation is not provided on freehold land and buildings because, in the opinion of the trustees, the estimated residual value is in excess of the current book value. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £5,000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Mary the Virgin Nunthorpe Trustees’ Annual Report
Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of the Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Mary the Virgin Nunthorpe for the year ended 31[st] December 2021
I report to the charity’s trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31[st] December 2021.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the act”).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Your attention is to drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the accounts in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has since been withdrawn.
I understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the act; or 2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
3 the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a “true and fair view” which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
