Structure, Governance and Management
The Parochial Church Council (PCC) is a registered Charity with the Charity Commi55ion.' charity
registration number.. 1134150. PCC members who f illed in the Charity Commission Declaration
form are Trustees of the Charity.
The method of appointment of PCC rnembers is set out in the Church Representation Rules. All
church attendees aro encouraged to Fogister on the Elector31 Rnll and st2nd fnr plgrtinn tn the
pcc.
The PCC comprises the Incumbent, two Churchwardens, two Deanery Synod representatives
pSus elected members. They are appointed at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting and serve for
orie year.
The Standing Committec comprises the Chaimian, the Churchw2rdens, Secretary and Treasurer
who meet from time to time to determine, amongst other matters, the Agenda for each PQC
meeting.
Other sub-committees are established to undertake specific tasks, such as social events and
f undrai5ing.
Oblectlves and Activitie5
The PCC'S general functions are set out in the Parochial Church Council (Powers) Measure 1956,
Section 2. This can be summarised as= 'it shall be the duty of the minister and the PCC to consult
together on matters of general concern and importance to the Parish.
The primary object of a51 PCC'S will be the promotion of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ
according to the doctrines and practices of the Qhurch of England.
The PCC'S mission statement is'saint Margaret and St Chad's is a Church family, where we gather
as God's people in faith, love and service. It is a place of worship, prayer, welcome and
acceptance, reaching out to the whole community,.
The PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the Incumbent in promoting in the
ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and
ecumenical.
The PCC is responsible for the maintenance and repair of the church and its content5. It arranges
suitable insurance cover for the building. The PCC has overall charge of all expenditure. Cheque
signatories are the two Churchwarden5, the Secretary and the Treasurer. All payments require
two signatures, any two of the four. The PCC relies wholly on volunteers to carry out all aspects
of the work, only engaging contractors where no expertise exists within the congregation.
Accordingly, there are no employees.
The PCC retains ownership of the Canon George Community and Parish Hall, and the
managerrjent of that building is the responsibility of the PCC following the demise of the Hall

Management Committee. The Hall maintains its own who Bank account, but the PCC is now
responsible for the insurance cover for the building.
The making of grant5 and donations is decided each year by the PCC. Collections are authorised
to be taken in church on behalf of other charitie5. The monies collected are recorded in the
accounts and paid to the charities concerned by cheque.
Risk Management Policy 2023
The risks f311 into three categorips..
Risk to the continuation of the church as a 'going concern, in Hollinwood and Limeside.
2. Risk to the premises.
3. Risk to individuals when using the premises.
The f irst of these has been addressed by the PCC to stake steps to rectify any shortcomings.
The Church the Canon George Community and Parish Hall are protected by burglar alarm
systems. The Canon George Community and Parish Hall also has smoke detectors f itted. Fire
protection 15 afforded by extinguishers which are serviced annually.
Health and Safety Issues have been addressed by the writing and dissemination of procedures
governing the conduct of user5 and visitors.

Annual Report for Year Ending 31st December 2023
1. PCC Secretary Report on the work of the PCC
During the past year, the PCC has met twice. Business covered was the appointment of Officers,
to receive the Finance Report, discuss the separation of the Foodbank from the PCC, the
progression of the document 'Living in Love and Faith,, issues facing the fabric of the Parish
Centre and any updates relating to our Safeguarding Policy or any incidents that the PCC should
be made aware of. Day to day i--.uoe are dealt with by the Standing Cnmmittrpp.
2. Electoral Roll Report
There are currently 57 people on the Electoral Roll. This number has remained the Same despite
the deaths of two member5 of our worshipping community and the reception of two others into
the Roman Catholic Church.
The next Revision of the Roll will take place in 2025.
3. Deanery Synod Report
Deanery Synod has met four times during the past year at various churches in the Deanery.
Complaints concerning the size of the Deanery and some members refusing to travel continue.
Sadly, the Deanery is what it is and if people are not prepared to travel, perhaps they should not
consider standing a5 a Synod member. This, however, is not the case at st Margaret's.
The agenda for the Meetings follows the usual pattern with updates from various bodies and
from Diocesan Synod when it has met. These are usually very interesting sources of information
especially on Diocesan f inance.
Much of the business of Deanery Synod has been around the creation of Focal Leaders and Eco
Champions, the Living in Love and Faith Document, Finance and Mission Community activities.
Fr Tom continues to be the clerical secretary for Deanery Synod. Regrettably, no one has stood
as the lay secretary.
4. Churchwardens, Report on the Fabric of the Church
Whilst the church is now watertight following the completion of Phase 4 (apart from an ongoing
issue with water ingre55 over the St Nicholas, Altar which all atternpts have 50 far failed to
re501ve), we still need to address the re-plastering of the south aisle wall and the staining of the
new timbers. We are currently looking at a grant source which will enable us to carry out this
work.
The PCC have also been looking at grant sources to improve the lighting system J provide a new
sound system and to eventually provide toilets and kitchen accommodation at the west end of
the church. Our Architect has produced a suggested scheme and work is ongoing . To provide
toilets etc would enable us and others to use the church outside worship time for many other
activities.

The heating system continues to give cause for concern and with two of the boilers not working
the heating in church does not always reach the temperature which we need to be comfortable.
Eventually, the remaining two boiler5 will become impossible to repair and will need replacing at
considerable cost.
The organ is at present 'mothballed' and has not been played or serviced since the start of the
Pandemic and 15 in a poor state. Since 1958 when the organ was moved from what is now the
Lady Ch3pel and rebuilt, no major rep3irs or renovation work have been carried out for 66 years.
In the past it was tuned twice a year and if something has gone wrong, work has been done just
tn rp.me.dy the fault but there has been no long-term plan to deal with increasing issue5. The PCC
have already had a discussion as to its future and the new PCC will need to consider the
discussion f urther. The longer this is left, the instruTnent will only continue to deteriorate f urther.
Music at present is being skilfully handled by Martin Woods and is much appreciated. Our thanks
must go to him for ensuring the Solemn Ma55, weddings and funerals go ahead as though the
actual organ was being played.
Repairs to the railing5 on the front boundary wall of the church will be repaired by contractors
on behalf of Oldham Council and there is money with the Council to cover this work. Rep13cing
the railings which date from 1902 is skilled work, hence the delay.
We are gratef ul to the Council for all the work they do to maintain the churchyard, cutting the
grass and the planting around the War Memorial. The grave which is designated a5 a War Grave
war in danger of collap£o and it has been ronov3ted (in a different f orm) by thp C_niincil qn thRt
it still fulfils the criteria of the War Graves Commission. Regrettably, the War Graves Commission
were uninterested in its condition and ref used to restore it.
We must thank all those who carry out repair or renovation works in the church throughout the
year and those who help with the cleaning of the church prior to the major festivals. The church
looks splendid throughout the year and even more so on the major festivals. Thank you to all
those who help to make this possible.
5. Financial Statement
N.B. This report relates to Sections 3 to 5 and 8 in the "Notes to Financial Statements, which cdn be
found on pages J9 and 20.
During 2023, the PCC'S routine income (excluding that relating to the South Aisle roof and Charity
Collections) exceeded expenditure by about £2,500. The main sources of income have been
Planned Giving through the bank (115,245), Collections (£3,412), Sundry Doriations (L3,855) and
Gift Aid claimed back from HMRC (£ 6,815). These amounts were broadly similar to 2022. The
other main source of income was Fund raising event5 which raised an impressive SUTn of £5,605,
thanks to much hard work by members of the congregation.
The PCC also benefitted from Some non-recurring income such as the Energy cost support from
the National Church (£2,830).
On the expenditure side, the largest single item, as always, w35 the Parish Share (£17,280). After
that, Snsurance premiums cost £6,414 and the cost of Utilities wa5 14,561. While most of our

expenses were 5imi13r to those in 2022, the Parish Share increased by 1 ox (with a further 10% in
2024, to be followed by 5% increases for the next 3 years).
While the PCC'S f inancial p051tion in 2023 seemed re350nably healthy J the challenge to balance
the books in future years will be unrelenting. Although the c05t of utilities appear5 to have
stabili5ed at a lower level than in 2022, all the other costs borne by the PCC continue to rise by at
least the rate of inf lation. As it would probably be difficult to raise much more than in 2023 from
events, it will inevitably fall to parishioners to review their level of voluntary giving if we are to
avoid "going into the red, and using up our limited resources.
6. Safeguarding and Child Protection Report
In accordance with the Statutory requirements, a report from the Parish Safeguarding Off icer is
an item on each Parochial Church Councillstanding Committee Meeting agenda.
During 2023 there have been no issues to report at a PCClStanding Committee meeting or during
any other period in thc year. The Uniformed Organisations who rneet in the Hall comply with the
Parish Safeguarding Policy Document.
The Parish Saf eguarding Officer has completed all the required courses expected of her by the
Diocese during the past year.
7. Canon George Community and Parish Hall Report
The hall 15 managed under a Constitution agreed by the PCC and has its own bank account. All
accounts f or the upkoep of the hall (including insurance) are paid from the hall bank account.
This Constitution has been suspended and the PCC has had to take responsibility f or it as there
is no Hall Management Committee.
During 2023 the hall has continued to be used by the Uniformed Organisation and a signif icant
number of local people using it for children's parties and by Oldham Council as a Poling station.
In addition to these Slimming World hire the hall once a week, Sankova, which trains people to
work with young people with severe learning and behaviour difficulties use the hall fairly
frequently and a band who use the upper hall for their practice sessions.
Thanks to the efforts of Denise Mccoy, we have finally been able to rescind the contract with
PHS. Desplte the hall being closed during the Pandemic, PHS continued to charge us for their
services they did not provide and f or toilet ro51 etc that we did not need or use. This has been one
less bill to pay.
We continue to struggle with heating the downstairs hall to a reasonable temperature. The
system has been drained and there doesn't seem to be a reason f or it. Thankfully, a local plumber
has been identified who helps us when necessary.
Going f orward, the hall urgently requires redecoration especially in the kitchen where there has
been water damage and the flooring in the toilets and kitchen. Consideration a5 to how this can
be achieved is needed if we are to attract lettings in the future.

We remain gratef ul to the Barton family who faithfully clean the hall each week and to Martin
Woods who co-ordinates the lettings, opens and closes it.
8. Oldham Foodbank
In 2023 the Oldham Foodbank fed 27,371 people.. 16,318 adults and 11,053 children. This amounts
to 11,667 parcels delivered and 46 parcels delivered on average each day, Monday to Friday. I
comparison with 2022, 7,356 more people have been fed (36.8% increase), including 4,447 more
adults (37.4°A increase) and 2,909 more children (35.7% increase) with 2,993 more parcels being
delivered which amounts to a 31.5% increase.
At the Vulcan Street site there are two large units,. one where the stock is stored and where we
receive donations and the other 15 the 'shop' where orders are pickedi packed, weighed and
de5Patched. Each f ood parcel is delivered to the recipient's door which is a demanding job for
our volunteer drivers battling through Oldham's traffic. The Units are rented and coupled with
bulk food purchases, utility costs and transport, the operating costs of the Foodbank are over
£9,000 per month, £4,000 of this 15 for food alone. There is no doubt that the pressure on the
Foodbank in 2024 will continue to rise as demand increases and the ability of the residents of
Oldham to afford donating food or maintaining their f inancial giving decreases.
Conversations around the separation of the Foodbank f rom the PCC are ongoing. It is hoped that
in the early part of 2024 a group of perspective Trustees will be formed with the Foodbank
becoming a CIO by June. However, there is still more work to be done to achieve this.
The funding for the Organisational Development Worker (Tom Lewis-Hood) comes to an end in
October 2024. Tom has made a Significant difference to the running of the Foodbank post-
pandemic. It is hoped that further f unding from other sources wi15 be found so that we can retain
him, but POS5ibly in another role. This sourcing of f unding will be the responsibility of the new
Trustees.
9. Parish Priest's Report
I sometimes believe that it is a mistake to read through the last year's report because it can
highlight some of the hopes and dreams that were not achieved and obscure what has been
3chieved. Let me begin this year's report with some of the disappointments thereby leaving all
that 15 good to the end.
Three years ago, the railings to the churchyard were either destroyed or signif icantly damaged
following a driver losing control of their car. The railings that survived are still in my yard and I
have got used to them being there or rather, I have got so used to them being there I no longer
see them. Two years ago, saw early conversations with our Architect about the possibility of
installing toilets and a kitchen at the west end of the church. Despite assurances that costing f or
such a project would be drawn UP> there has instead been a significant period of silence. This
year, I made the counci5 aware that the boundary wall
on the opposite side to the missing
railings - was in danger of collapse. A meeting was called, and l explained what was happening.
Excuse the pun, another'wa51' of silence. I could be blamed f or not chasing these people Upi but
do I want another round of promises that will never happen? Perhaps I do and will pray that by
the APCM in 2025, things will have changed.

2023 has seen some new people join our worshipping community who have come with
enthusiasm for f undraising and commitment to the spiritual lif e of the parish. The Christmas
Fayre in October raised a signif icant amount of money for church funds which has helped us pay
our way. The 'knitters' as I call them, have no 500ner finished one project as they begin another.
They have also discovered others who have the same skill which has brought people together.
At the same time as raising funds for the church, we have again been able to support the work
of the Additional Curates Society and the Leprosy Mission.
You will have read of the development5 that Bre happening for the Foodbank to become a
rharity in itf nwn right a c.haritable I ncorporated Org3nisation. When we meet again in 2025.
this will have happened. Thi5 15 very good news for us and the Foodbank. However, we owe a
great debt of gratitude to the volunteer5 for 311 they do. Without them there would not be a
Foodbank especially when you consider that just before Christmas, 92 parce15 were delivered in
one day.
st Margaret's School continues to be a source of joy for me as I make my regular visits to the
school and when the children come to Mass. We arp triily blessed with a strong Leadership Team
and committed staff who make the school 3 happy and secure place as well as delivering an
outstanding curriculum. In thanking the staff, I would also like to thank the Governors for the
time they dedicate to ensuring that the school is properly managed.
Following a tuneral I took, someone I had never met before made the observation, 'You are
clearly very happy here, and l am. I would like to thank you 311 for the many kindnesses you show
me and your prayerful
-upport. Cod has p13cod you in my c3re and l am vpry gr3tpf Lil fnr th2t
Let US together look to the future with optimism and hope as together we serve the people of
our parish.
