## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the current edition of the Church Representation Rules. All church attendees are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC under these same rules. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

St Jude’s PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent in promoting, in the ecclesiastical parish and into the City of Plymouth, the whole mission of the Church: pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. It also has the maintenance responsibilities for the Church, Upper Hall, Lower Hall and Church Cottage on the St Jude’s site. 

## **Church Electoral Roll** 

There were 68 members on the Church Electoral Roll at the 2021 APCM, 49 of whom were non-resident in the parish, 19 resident. (At the 2020 APCM there were 67 members on the Church Electoral Roll, 48 of whom are non-resident in the parish, 19 resident) 

## **Safeguarding** 

With both a long-standing OFSTED approved Pre-School and many young people utilising our site, as well as adults with learning difficulties, St Jude’s has always taken great care in ensuring it has had more than just a ‘due regard’ for safeguarding both children and vulnerable adults. The Parochial Church Council, its employees and officers have always been required to adapt to bring into operation current safeguarding good practice direction from statutory bodies such as OFSTED and the Church of England’s House of Bishops guidance through the Diocese of Exeter Safeguarding Officers (as in those guidelines within the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016). Safeguarding is a standing item at every PCC meeting. 

The Church of England’s General Synod approved new guidelines and policies during 2017. The Diocese of Exeter adopted them early Autumn 2017. The Plymouth Deanery was advised of them in November 2017. Plans were put into place for early adoption of the new policies and guidelines as early as possible once Diocesan materials were made available. The PCC of St Jude’s then adopted the new policies 16 January 2018 and began work on bringing them into practice across the church. 

## **Review of the Parochial Church Council Year** 

The full PCC met six times during the year, and two more times on single item issues via email. The main meetings were on the 12 January, 16 March, 4 May, 13 July, 14 September and 9 November. The two single item issues were undertaken by email on the 15 February and by zoom on the 2 November. All meetings had an average attendance by the Vicar and elected members (PCC, Deanery Synod representatives and Church Wardens) of 98%. There were no Standing Committee meetings. 

PCC minutes were made publicly available throughout the year once approved at the subsequent meeting. Simplified agreed summaries of items of interest are produced soon after each meeting for distribution in the Church. At each meeting of the PCC, previous minutes are checked and approved and running accounts are presented by the Treasurer. Safeguarding is a standing item as well as a Health & Safety report, Human Resources and Sustainability. 

Highlights and some significant areas of the Church’s life covered during the year by the PCC on behalf of the Church were as overleaf:

## **12 January 2021** 

The PCC confirmed a decision to again close the Church due to Covid and to resume virtual online services from the 10 January. It also set the year’s budget, the prior year managing to end with a small surplus of £6,738. The great help of regular gifts through bank accounts were acknowledged as having been crucial during the major lockdown times when we met virtually. There was a report on concerns over the financial viability of the Preschool as Government grants ceasing and probable returns to Local authority ‘headcount’ payments on actual attendance and the PCC were going to wait to se what happens. Local Authority Building Control approval had been received for the Next Era church re-ordering project and work continued towards a faculty application. The Vicar confirmed that he may retire in the spring of 2026 and brought a report on the recognition that many areas of our church life are resourced by very few people which illustrated both the issue of our resilience being poor. In particular, there would be a need to encourage some to consider licensed ministry training. It was also acknowledged that there is a need for growth. 

## **15 February 2021 – single item PCC decision by email** 

Following information from the Diocese requiring a decision, the PCC decided to keep the church closed for public gathering and for online worship to be continued until a decision could be taken at the March PCC meeting. 

## **16 March 2021** 

The PCC heard that the preschool finances were still finely balanced, possibly just under a breakeven figure while other church finances were stable. The yearend accounts for 2020 were approved ready for the April Annual Meeting. There was good news of some interest from the congregation for licensed ministry training. The Church website and email urgently needed replacing due to several outages and after two quotations, one firm was selected to explore in detail a replacement system. Public services would restart on Easter Sunday (4 April). There was news the Diocesan Advisory Committee (DAC) may visit the site to review the Next Era project. Sadly ,there was also the agreement that Church Camp for our younger people would not be viable in the Summer due to the covid effects. Financial support of £211 was given to the Girls Brigade. 

## **4 May 2021** 

The new PCC assembled following the Annual Meeting and officers were approved. National changes to laws surrounding marriage in churches, in particular the registration process that will now be taken out of the Parishes into the local Registrar’s responsibility were announced. The PCC also heard the church had been awarded a Fairtrade Status. Church accounts were again still stable and the Preschool accounts were still on a ‘knife edge’. There were discussions around the anticipated return of permission to offer both the wine via the common cup along with the bread soon following its prohibition for health reasons during the pandemic. It was agreed that the Vicar should pursue looking at ways of introducing some form of individual glasses as some form of an option together with the ‘Common Cup’ and to ask a question on the topic at the next diocesan Synod 

## **13 July 2021** 

The church accounts were looking positive with a possible year end surplus estimated at c. £6k against the budget. The recognition of a need for a Church Administrator was acknowledged and felt a part-time post could be afforded. Work on a job description was needed. The Next Era plans were completed and being uploaded to the CAD website and the PCC gave their formal approval for the submission to be finished. There were some thoughts about helping the Preschool with a church team with a review on it after the summer. The church’s website was almost finished for going live in August. While small cups of alcohol-free wine at our communion services would not be consecrated, the PCC approved their use to aid meditation. Gluten free bread was also agreed to be provided for all. The PCC had been circulated with a Church of England document regarding a church’s responsibility for the wellbeing of their clergy. The Vicar confirmed “he felt well cared for by the church”.

## **14 September 2021** 

The church’s finances were still positive and remain suggesting a small surplus will be present at the year end. The difficulties of the Preschool were considered further. There had been a suggestion from the church’s Pastoral Support Group (and information provided on costs etc) that a Public Access Defibrillator might be something we could consider providing, not just for the church’s benefit but also due to the lack of any within 500m of the church. The PCC agreed to buy one once faculty permission to install it by the front door of the church was obtained. There was a report to the PCC on the inability to ventilate the Upper Hall as we move into winter weather and close doors etc to retain heat. It was agreed to invest £7,197 in air cleaners (with £600 every other year for servicing) to have a similar effect to ventilation in reducing viral and bacterial loading in the air when people gather in any numbers. A member of the congregation was beginning initial courses towards ministry selection in the Church of England with a hope to be able to fulfil that non-stipendiary ordained ministry here in a few years-time. The PCC agreed to fund their travel and books etc for the year of his course. The church’s bank account was in a process of change to enable online access and BACS payments etc, impossible with their current account. The PCC agreed the new panel of signatories. 

## **2 November 2021 – special PCC meeting by Zoom** 

There were two issues related to the Preschool that had been discussed and investigated and now needed an urgent decision following weeks of major financial reviews and staff conversations that couldn’t be delayed to the planned November PCC meeting. 

The first was the ongoing financial issue that now meant it was clear that the Preschool was losing money each term and would into 2022. We had also reached the point that if we were to close, we could just afford all the redundancy and notice period payments if decided on now, but not if delayed into the Spring term when the church would then need to re-finance it in some way. 

The second was that Preschool Manager had requested to change their role to work more with children. Preschools must have such a person in post as Manager to remain open. The PCC heard that advertising had happened, yet only two applicants had presented and neither were suitable. The PCC were also informed that it had been discovered that there were multiple vacancies in the nursery/preschool sector in Plymouth for staff of all grades. 

In discussions of the Vicar with the leaders of the Preschool, who all year and beyond had known of the financial struggles, it was agreed that the PCC should be asked for a closure decision so that announcements could be made that week. 

Due to the notice periods required, a financially based decision was needed. The PCC unanimously, and very sadly, confirmed that notice to close at Christmas should be given to the staff over the next two days and very soon after to the families. 

## **9 November 2021** 

The PCC heard that the defibrillator was now registered with the health system to enable 999 callers to be directed to it and helped and was now installed. The church’s accounts still showed a small surplus over the budget. The PCC also approved a spend of £4,350 for repairs to the Lower Hall roof. They also heard that the faculty application had been delayed within the Registrar’s Office and was only forwarded for the Chancellor of the Diocese to consider it on the 8 November when progress was checked. The PCC was thanked for all the care around the last year (and beyond), and then earlier this month in taking care and making decisions with integrity for the Preschool, its staff and the families. Work required to bring the setting to a close at Christmas was outlined as well as the need for archiving of some records.

## **Finance Summary** 

Planned giving donations through standing orders at the bank and the highly successful Parish Giving Scheme has enabled the Church’s income to remain buoyant, despite the uncertainties of the pandemic at the start of the year, which resulted in online services being resumed for the first couple of months. 

Our financial outturn exceeded our forecast for the year in our General Account.  Our income was £96,315 and through careful management of our spending of £85,677, we achieved an in-year surplus of £10,638. Once again, this is testament to the generosity and support of our wonderful Church family who continue to honour its financial commitment during very challenging times. 

We were also blessed with a sizeable anonymous donation of £31,500 that has been designated to a separate fund, for monitoring purposes, so that it does not get subsumed and “disappears” into the general running expenses of the Church.  This ensures the amount is accountably spent and although no restriction was placed on the donation there was an expectation that the donor would like to see it being used, if possible, to continue our community outreach. 

The purchase of air purifiers of £7,197 for the upper hall, to provide ventilation and a covid safer environment allowed the church to continue to use this space for outreach.  This cost was offset by a very generous donation by a Church family, covering half of the cost and a smaller contribution from the Community Hub itself, so in all, we received £4,800 towards these unplanned costs during the year.  A further sizable donation has been received in 2022 from the Community Charity accounts of three Plymouth Councillors of £1,500 to further offset these costs. 

The gross income which includes all the funds held by the church, restricted Next Era Building Fund, Community Hub, Pre-School funds, Special donation, as mentioned above, and some other smaller funds amounted to £214,108 and expenditure was £204,147. 

Through successful grant applications by the Community Hub team, we were able to fund improvements to the Upper Hall toilet facilities and floor and a huge thankyou to all involved. 

The largest of our funds is those held for the Next Era Development.  During the year, we received a further pledged donation and paid out for further professional fees and the fund finished the year with £245,985, an increase over last year of £3,000. 

Unfortunately, and despite regular monitoring of finances by the PCC the Pre-school succumbed to the economic pressures of unsustainable nursery numbers, reducing local authority funding and labour recruitment difficulties.   This was a sad and devastating blow, not just for those that worked in the setting, but for those in the Church family who were instrumental in setting up and providing the local area with a Christian ethos-based Pre-School for over 30 years.  A longstanding requirement of the PCC was to ensure there was sufficient funds in the Pre-School bank account to cover a redundancy situation should this ever arise. The Pre-School closed at the end of term in December with all redundancy payments met, wages and bills paid, leaving £196.69 in their account. 

As we move into 2022 we need to be mindful of the continuing economic pressures the Church will face with utilities prices rising exponentially and the additional burden, placed on others, carrying out the administrative tasks, once carried out by a paid member of staff, that we will need to readdress at some point. 

Once again, through the ups and downs of another challenging year and as we face more uncertainty, we can rest assured that our faithful God will supply all our needs.

# **PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL FINANCIAL REPORT** 

**Year Ended 31st December 2021** 

Charity Reg No 1134316 



**Notes to the financial statement** 

## **For the year ended 31 December 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

The PCC is a public benefit entity within the meaning of Financial Reporting Standards (FRS102). The financial statements have been prepared under the Charities Act 2011 and in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 governing the individual accounts of the PCCs. The PCC are currently working towards preparing their accounts under FRS102 (2016) as the applicable accounting standards and the 2016 version of the Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP (FRS102)). 

## **ASSETS** 

## **Consecrated and benefice property** 

In so are as consecrated and benefice property of any kind is excluded from the statutory definition of the ‘charity’ by Section 10(2) (a) and (c) of the Charities Act 2011 such assets are not capitalised in the financial statements. 

## **Moveable church furnishings** 

These are capitalised at cost and depreciated over their useful economic life other than where insufficient cost information is available. In this case the item is not capitalised, but all items are included in the Church’s inventory in any case. 

## **Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity** 

These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £1.000. They are valued at cost or else, for gifts-in-kind, at a reasonable estimate of their open market value on receipt. 

Depreciation is calculated to write off the capitalised cost of fixed assets less their currently anticipated residual fair value over their estimated useful lives as follows: 

Land – Nil Fixtures and fittings – 20 years Computers – 3 years 

No depreciation is provided on buildings as the currently estimated residual value of the properties is not less than their carrying value and the remaining useful life of these assets currently exceeds 50 years, so that any depreciation charges would be immaterial. 

An impairment review is carried out at each year-end and any resultant loss identified included in expenditure for the year. 

## **Investments** 

Investments quoted on a recognised stock exchange or whose value derived from them are valued at market value at the year end. Other investment assets are included at PCC’s best estimate of market value. 

## **Short term deposits** 

These are the cash held on deposit either with the CCLA or at the bank. 

## **FUNDS** 

## **Unrestricted Funds** 

These represent the remaining income funds of the PCC that are available for spending on the general purposes of the PCC, including amounts designated by the PCC for fixed assets for its own use or for spending on a future project and which are therefore not included in its ‘free reserves’ as disclosed in the trustees’ report. 

## **Restricted Funds** 

These are income funds that must be spent on restricted purposes and details of the funds held and restrictions provided are shown in the notes to the accounts. 

## **Endowment Funds** 

These are restricted funds that must be retained as trust capital either permanently or subject to a discretional power to spend capital as income, and where the use of any income or other benefit derived from the capital may be restricted or unrestricted. Full details of all their restrictions are shown in the notes to the accounts.

## **Independent Examiner’s Report to the PCC of St Judes Church PLYMOUTH** 

This Report on the Financial Statements of St Judes Church for the year ended 31 December 2021 is in respect of an examination carried out in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 ( **‘** The Regulations’) and s.43 of the Charities Act 1993 (‘the Act’). 

## **Respective responsibilities of St Judes Church and the Examiner** 

As members of St Judes Church, you are responsible for the preparation of the Financial Statements, you consider that the Audit requirement of the regulations and s.43(2) of the Act does not apply. It is my responsibility to issue this Report on those Financial Statements in accordance with the terms and regulations. 

## **Basis of this Report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under s.43(7)(b) of the Act and to be found in the Church guidance, 2006 addition. That examination includes a Review of the Accounting Records kept by St Judes Church and a comparison of the Accounts with those Records. It also includes considering any unusual items or disclosures in the Financial Statements and seeking explanations from you as Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an Audit, and consequently I do not express an Audit opinion on the view given by the Accounts. 

## **Independent Examiner’s Statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that there are any material facts in respect of the requirements; 

   - to keep Accounting Records in accordance with Section 41 of the Act, and 

   - to prepare the Financial Statements, which accord with the Accounting Records and comply with the requirements of the Act and the Regulations have been met or 

- (2)      to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the Accounts to be reached.
