Trustees’ Annual Report

Public Benefit Statement

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our trustees have given consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular the advancement of the Christian faith through the provision of worship and teaching services and the relief of sickness, financial hardship and promoting good health. This has been achieved by the provision of funds, and services.

Organisational structure; recruitment, appointment and induction of new trustees

Pudsey Parish Church is a charity registered with the Charities Commission (registration number 1134156). The Pudsey Parish Church Parochial Church Council (PCC) is a corporate body established by the Church of England. The PCC operates under the Parochial Church Council Powers Measure.

The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. At Pudsey Parish Church the membership of the PCC consists of the incumbent (our vicar), churchwardens and members elected by those members of the congregation who are on the electoral roll of the church. All those who attend our services / members of the congregation are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC.

The PCC members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the parish including deciding on how the funds of the PCC are to be spent.

Objectives and Activities

Financial Review

2022 has once again been a year where we have continued to rely on the generosity of the church in their financial giving, in their time and their investment. We have seen some movement within our church with some people moving on and some moving in. This has resulted in some giving ceasing but other giving beginning. We are actively encouraging people to give via the Parish Giving Scheme. The introduction of contactless card machines has been a positive asset as this has enabled people to give donations in other ways, particularly at events in church.

Pudsey Parish Church Year Ended 31st December 2021

Trustees’ Annual Report

Our accounts show at the end of December 2022 that there has been a notable dip in regular giving. This is reflected in a drop in numbers at Sunday morning services. This is a concern in light of the economic situation for many people at the close of 2022. Although last year we had to recognise the continued loss of income from various income streams some of this income has returned this year as we have welcomed back full ABC sessions and enjoyed opening our building to more community events.

In 2022 we have been fortunate again to have been in receipt of some unexpected income. This has been via a legacy and other one-offs. As stated in our report for 2021, it is important to recognise that we cannot rely on this as a regular income stream in our budgeting; however, we have been very grateful for this money.

The fund balances at the year end were as follows:

Reserves Policy

The total unrestricted reserves held by the Church at the end of December 2022 were £394,383. £68,452 is held as a designated fund for Music/worship activities, and in an PA, AV, IT improvement fund.

It is the councils intention to hold unrestricted reserves of between 3 and 6 months of operating costs (£32,742 - £65,485). Where unrestricted funds are held over this amount the PCC will review the financial position of the charity and evaluate were surplus funds are best spent and invested.

Achievement and Performance

2022 has continued to see us moving forward after the Covid pandemic but has seen much more of a familiarity as we have ventured into a ‘new’ normal.

We are working hard to encourage people who have not returned since before the pandemic to do so, together with welcoming new faces on a regular basis. We are planning to offer some additional short courses in 2023 to encourage each of our congregation to further explore their own faith journey and what that means in daily life.

It has been lovely to continue to welcome many families to celebrate a wedding or baptism and to have supported families through the grief of a funeral. This has become easier since restrictions ended.

As the year progressed, we were able to open our church for more community events such as the local Gardeners’ Shows, Pudsey Community Cinema, fairs, seasonal celebration events. This has helped to raise our profile in the community as a church that is there to welcome and support all. We have also opened our church as a ‘Cool Space’ in Summer and a ‘Warm Space’ in Winter.

In 2022 we were able to mark Remembrance Sunday once again with an indoor service. This was attended by over 500 of our community, followed by leading an outdoor Act of Remembrance at the Cenotaph with several thousand. We also planted the visual display of over 2000 poppy crosses in our church grounds as we had in 2021. We opened the church for hot drinks and for people to light a candle or look around the

church. This was appreciated by many members of the public who visited during and after the service at the war memorial.

2022 saw the continuation and development of Pudsey Perk. Pudsey Perk was set up as part of a bigger picture of Open Church. Open Church is our aim to have our church doors open to welcome people as often as possible. Pudsey Perk provides simple refreshments at a competitive price whilst allowing community members to socialise, reflect or pray. Numbers have been inconsistent over 2022 and in October the decision was made to close Pudsey Perk to allow for Warm Welcome to happen (part of a nationwide initiative to help support families during the cold months). During this time Pudsey Perk will be reviewed.

Churchwardens Report

We enjoyed our first full year worshipping back on site since the Covid pandemic and over the course of the year lifted the restrictions that the pandemic had bought. Our attendance averages around 85 over 2/3 services on a Sunday over a monthly period. This doesn’t include the numbers for baptisms. We also changed our online resources as the restrictions lifted and now record the reading and sermon from the 10.30am services which is then made available online. We continue to use priestly intinction of bread and wine as our means of offering Holy Communion in both kinds. We have had some music led by live singers although this needs to become more consistent. Together with our regular 9am and 10.30am Sunday services we have seen our monthly afternoon Kids’ Worship develop and regular enquiries for baptisms. We were able to have indoor services for all our main festivals as well as additional services to mark the late Queen’s death. Our services for Remembrance and Christingle were attended by over 300 people at each.

Prayer Chapel

Our prayer chapel in the north aisle continues to be well used and is available whenever church is open. This space has been put aside for quiet reflection and prayer.

Finance

Despite relocating last summer, Gail Sutton has continued to support us as we have tried to recruit her replacement. A year into using our new accounting system, we are better able to track our income and expenditure. We are indebted to Gail for her support and flexibility. As of December 2022, we are still looking for a treasurer, but the New Year is looking promising.

Our end of year accounts revealed that we need to look at different ways to support the finances of our church as a notable dip in regular giving is making things very tight. The current economic climate will not help us as many people are unable to increase their giving and may need to decrease it.

Property

We have continued to follow up on the few issues raised from the quinquennial inspection in 2021 and carried out a thorough review of the Terrier and inventory. Part of this review involved transferring the data onto a secure electronic platform so that it can be accessed and updated much more readily. This work was recognised by the Archdeacon during his visit together with the Fire Assessment risk that was carried out by a specialist company.

The problems with the church clocks have continued to be on the agenda throughout 2022. The clock face which was removed in 2021 is still in the Narthex for safe keeping.

Pudsey Parish Church Year Ended 31st December 2021

Trustees’ Annual Report

Following initial reports from the clock repairers about what needs to be done to get the entire clock working correctly and in good order, a meeting took place between the clock company and our architect. This resulted in a further inspection of the stonework to which the faces are attached. Unfortunately, the inspection revealed that the stonework was not supporting the clock faces adequately and led to us spending c£5000 to have the faces temporarily re-secured until we have funding to allow us to carry out the necessary restoration work. This was an expensive and disappointing setback. We continue to consider the way forward to complete the works necessary hopefully by grant applications, a possible public appeal, and no doubt some money from church finances. The inspection also highlighted some further work being required on some external stonework on the top of the tower.

As we moved into 2022, problems with the boilers continued. We experienced some relief over the summer period but we didn’t have the final parts fitted to complete the works until late December 2022. The boiler repairs, maintenance and servicing took the whole of the allocated buildings budget in 2022. It has highlighted the urgent need to replace our heating system as our boilers continue to fail.

We carried out some long overdue maintenance on the interior of our building in January with the replacement of the carpet in the entrance porch and foyer of church and cleaning of the narthex windows.

A very generous legacy left to the church in January has also enabled us to plan to replace our chairs which have served us for over 20 years. These chairs are now beginning to break due to the constant moving of them to accommodate the many activities carried out in our building. We are currently awaiting samples for us to make an informed choice about the replacements.

In the late summer, we finally completed the transaction to purchase the building on Fartown which is home to the Pudsey Community Project. Necessary work has begun to allow the building to be able to be used more effectively in support of our local community.

Staff

There has been a further staff change during the year as our curate, Sarah Harrison, moved in March to another parish to continue her curacy.

ABC Group

ABC stands for ‘Adults, Babies and Children’ and is a popular, thriving group which exists to serve young families in our community and welcomes parents, grandparents, and carers with 0–4-year-olds. This group has continued to be very popular and grown in number as Pandemic restrictions have lifted. In December the number of places on offer at each session (Monday and Tuesday mornings) was raised from 30 families per session to 35. New volunteers are always welcome and follow our Safeguarding recruitment policy. Many families find this is a fun and safe place to meet up and make new friends. Our objective continues to be that it will be the gateway for many to start or continue to explore their faith and links with church. We hope to achieve this by developing relationships and demonstrating God’s love and care to all who join us. There is a simple Christian thread running through the sessions in stories, prayers and songs. This has been developed during 2022 with the stories and crafts having a common theme. We also have a termly ABC church service which is well attended. In 2022, a ‘Prayer teapot’ has been introduced so that members can request prayer for any situation. This has been well used. ABC is supported by a very active Facebook group and has further strengthened links with the Kids Worship services held once a month on a Sunday afternoon.

Electoral Roll

The number on the Electoral Roll for 2022 is now 152. Names have been removed because of either people moving away from the area, dying, or requesting to be removed following decisions to start worshipping at other churches in the Diocese.

Life Groups (home study and support groups)

Life Groups continue to meet weekly either in homes or via Zoom. We recognise that numbers have dropped and that many of the new faces coming to church do not attend a Life Group. Also, there are a number of people who now have commitments that mean they are unable to attend a weekly group. With these issues in mind, from Easter 2023, the main centre for Bible study will be based at church where we will be offering some short courses at church on various evenings throughout the year. We will be encouraging everyone, including former Life Group members, to attend these either as individuals or as a group. In addition, we will be looking at developing our skills of pastoral care. Life Groups will of course be encouraged to meet socially to support each other if they wish to.

Youth and Children’s work

Sunday Morning

We have been delighted to be able to offer two new structured sessions for our under 11’s.

First Steps is our Sunday morning group for 0-5yr olds which meets during the 10.30am service 3 times a month, (on the 1[st] Sunday of the month we encourage families to attend the afternoon Kids’ Worship service instead although we do have provision at the back of church for parents and carers to share with their children at this service). This group started in May 2022 and is run by 6 team members who run sessions in pairs. Our times together have the same structure each week with welcome, short game, Bible story, prayer, craft and snack time followed by free play with the creche toys. The aim of our group is to introduce children to simple Bible stories and have fun! During 2022 we used the “Share a story Bible”, we learnt about the creation story and a selection of other Bible stories from Noah’s Ark and Abraham to some parables of Jesus. We have 13 children who have come along to our group at some point during the year and also regularly welcome visiting children with their parents or those attending church prior to being baptised.

Bible Explorers caters for 5-11 year olds and also works with support teams in pairs on a rota basis. Each session begins with a welcome, introductions and a prayer or song. A candle is lit and a reading from the Bible is shared. The reading is then discussed and followed up with refreshments. An activity is enjoyed before a reflection on the Bible reading and concluding prayers before the candle is blown out. Children receive a related task to take away and complete at home with their family.

Kids’ Worship

Kids’ Worship meets once a month on Sunday afternoons from 2.30pm for around an hour. This group is for children of primary age and younger with their parents/carers. It’s a fun, interactive service including action songs, a game, story, prayer, craft and finishes with refreshments. We have a team of 7 church members who organise and run Kids’ Worship between them. During 2022, our theme has been “Things that Jesus said and did”. We have been looking at this by exploring different parables and miracles. We have also had seasonal themes for Easter, Harvest and Christmas. We have 26 families who have been to Kids’ Worship over the year averaging around 10-15 families attending each month; for many of them this is the main service that they regularly attend. These services continue to grow in popularity. Some strong links are developing between these services and ABC and Baptism families.

Genesis

This group caters for 11-18 year olds and averages around 5 members. This group now meets on a Sunday evening. The group begin with refreshments and a chat before moving into a Bible study. This may involve a reading from the Bible or a video and is followed with a discussion. A game usually concludes the session.

Other Community outreach

Pudsey Community Project, launched from our church in March 2020, continues to be one of our mission partners, responding to ongoing need in our local community. The Project is now a separate charity working out of its own premises which are now owned by the church (since late summer 2022). This year has seen the outreach developing with the provision of a food pantry which runs several times a week; a weekly senior’s lunch club which usually reaches maximum numbers; an expansion of our Reduce Reuse kids clothing with regular events as well as access throughout the week. In the Autumn term, Youth provision began in the form of games evenings and a youth café.

Going Concern

The Trustee's are satisfied that the Charity is a going concern and do not know of any uncertainties regarding the organisations ability to continue operating as a going concern.

Trustees’ Responsibilities

The 2011 Charities Act require the Board of Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Board is required to:-

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the trust. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the trust and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Basis of Preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities Financial Reporting Standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (Charities SORP 2019 FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

Assessment of Going Concern

Preparation of the accounts is on a going concern basis. The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

Fund Accounting

Unrestricted income funds comprise those funds which the trustees are free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charitable objects. Unrestricted funds include designated funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have set aside resources for a specific purpose.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donor or the term of specific appeal, often known as a ‘special offering’ in the church.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the accounts.

Incoming Resources

All incoming resources are recognised once the charity has entitlement to the resources, It is probable that the resources will be received, and the monetary value of incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability.

• All voluntary income from members of the church are recognised as donations and are included in full, with associated Gift Aid receivable in the Statement of Financial Activities.

• Grants where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of specific performance by the charity are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.

• Income resources from charitable trading activities such as the letting of the building are accounted for when invoices are drawn up (as the point of entitlement).

• Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified.

• Gifts in Kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised.

• Volunteer time, the value of voluntary support for the work of the church is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees annual report.

• Investment income is included in the accounts when receivable.

16 Consecrated Land and Buildings and Other Church Property

The PCC has the use of the church property which is excluded from the accounts by virtue of s.10(2) 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 capitalised where appropriate and allocated to the appropriate fixed asset category. The church halls and certain clergy accommodation are held in trust by the Leeds Diocesan Fund on behalf of the PCC. These properties are essential for the mission of the church and have been in use for many years. Accordingly, they have not been capitalised as there is insufficient cost information and there depreciated cost is unlikely to be material. All expenditure on consecrated or benefice buildings is written off in the year of expenditure.
