PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST ANDREW'S, CULLOMPTON TRUSTEES' REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Structure, governance and management

Parochial Church Councils (PCCs) are charities, which are governed by two pieces of Church of England legislation, called Measures. These are:

  1. the Parochial Church Councils (Powers) Measure 1956 as amended. This defines the principal function, or purpose, of the PCC as “promoting in the parish the whole mission of the Church”; and

  2. the Church Representation Rules (contained in Schedule 3 to the Synodical Government Measure 1969 as amended).

The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation rules. At St Andrew's the PCC comprises of the Rector, Associate Priest, Church Wardens, Curate (although we did not have a Curate in 2020), Deanery Synod members, “ordinary” members and any ex-officio members (Such as Diocesan Synod or General Synod). The Deanery Synod members and “ordinary” members are elected by church members who are on the Church Electoral Roll. PCC members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the parish, including how the funds of the PCC are to be spent. The PCC meets at least quarterly, although the PCC day and Christmas social had to be cancelled this year.

The Senior Leadership Team (SLT) continue to meet twice monthly to act on behalf of the PCC and present proposals, reviews and policies for the PCC, as a whole, to approve and ratify. The SLT comprises of the Rector, the Associate Minister, 2 Church Wardens, Treasurer, Operations Director and PCC Lay Chair.

The town of Cullompton is set to more than double in size by 2033 and the PCC continue to look at how we “do church” in a variety of non-church settings and in particular how we might engage with people in new community facilities.

Aims and purpose:

St Andrew's Parochial Church Council (PCC) is responsible for co-operating with the Rector, Rev. Edward Hobbs, to promote the whole mission of the church: pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical, in the ecclesiastical parish of Cullompton and as part of the Mission throughout the Culm Valley. It also supports work within the Cullompton Deanery and the wider mission of the Diocese of Exeter.

Objectives and activity

The objectives of the PCC are summed up in the simple words “Revealing the heart of Jesus in the heart of our community”. This underpins all our activities. The PCC, with the Priest-in-Charge, oversee worship throughout the parish, aiming to meet the needs of the congregations, and also reaching out intentionally into the community. As austerity continues to impact local service delivery the “gaps” are increasing, and the church has a role to play in providing support and services. The planning of activities for the year satisfied the Charity Commissioners' guidance on public benefit and specifically the guidance on charities for the advancement of religion.

In order to make all this possible the PCC continued the necessary repair and maintenance of St Andrew's Church, the Community Centre and its immediate surroundings. Work has focused on more routine maintenance in 2020 with no major grants and no significant progress on the 2016 priorities listed in the quinquennial report, mainly due to the restrictions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST ANDREW'S, CULLOMPTON TRUSTEES' REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Achievements and performance

Rector Edward Hobbs worked closely with the wardens, the senior leadership team, the wider staff team and the church family to promote and deliver the objectives mentioned above. Every Sunday provided opportunities for worship, prayer and praise. For a majority of the year we were restricted by the national COVID-19 lockdown and were unable to gather in the church building as normal. We began pre-recording short services each week to send out to church members and the wider community. We also invested in the necessary equipment to begin live streaming services as soon as COVID-19 restrictions allowed a limited number of people back into the building. As lockdown restrictions were eased we were able to hold a few weekly services in the church building with strictly limited numbers and a ticketing system in place to ensure social distancing.

During the year we held 3 infant baptisms, 5 marriages and 6 in church funerals. These figures were much reduced this year due to the COVID-19 restrictions which affected these services during the year. Communion was taken to 11 adults who are housebound or locally in Care Homes when restrictions allowed. At least 125 church members attend Home-groups, usually fortnightly, to socialise, enjoy suppers, pray, and discuss the Bible's teaching. Homegroups have functioned online since March.

In 2020 the Church Electoral Roll was 235. During 2020 participation was 268 adults and 117 children and young people.

Our Easter services this year were pre-recorded (a traditional and more contemporary), and although we were able to have a carol service, two nativity services, a Christmas Eve midnight service and Christmas Day service in the church building the numbers were vastly reduced due to COVID-19 restrictions and social distancing. The annual events usually attended by our church family members were all cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Youth

The youth services were affected by the same restrictions as all other services in 2020, although we set up a number of regular Zoom calls and online meetings with the young people and saw many of them joining in. We also employed a new Youth and Worship pastor, who joined us in September, and has already run a number of online meetings getting to know the young people of the church. As lockdowns eased he was able to run a few sessions with the young people in the Community Centre.

He is also working well with his team and is looking forward to a time when he can get the young people back together again.

Children and Families Ministry

Our youth ministry has continued in much the same way as the other services. We have maintained the family service at the start of the month, either online or in church as restrictions allowed. Our Children’s pastor has kept in touch with many of the children and their families within St Andrew’s family and in the wider community, running frequent online events.

Community engagement/local mission

Our community and mission events have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdowns, with many of our annual or one-off events having to be cancelled.

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST ANDREW'S, CULLOMPTON TRUSTEES' REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

During the first lock down, the very tight restrictions and lack of access to technology made our Keystone ministry difficult to maintain. Since the summer, job club and Friday work group have restarted and the group are looking to buy technology to help people access the services they need. A woman’s support craft group has also recently restarted.

People Matter has continued to run weekly, either delivering food or asking people to collect food parcels safely from the church and community centre. Vulnerable families were supported over Christmas with presents and food parcels and the number of individuals and families supported has increased.

Global Mission

St Andrew's continues to give away 10% of its gifted income to support mission activities which is managed by an Outward Giving Team. We give to local, national and international charities, with a particular focus on forging longer term relationships with these groups.

Church Building

The church was open most weekdays for visitors prior to the beginning of lockdown, and when restrictions were eased in early autumn we were able to open the church building, with strict limitations to ensure compliance to COVID-19 guidelines, for three days each week. Ongoing maintenance and repair are always important matters and we are in continued conversations with the local council over statutory duty to maintain the churchyard.

Cullompton Community Centre

St Andrew’s Church owns the building of the Cullompton Community Centre, located in the church grounds. The building is leased to Cullompton Community Centre (Operations) Limited, a wholly owned trading subsidiary company of St Andrew’s. The company shares are held in trust by the Church Wardens, who at the year-end were A Jerreat and J Bailey. The long-term aim is for profits from this company to be used to maintain and improve the building and to be donated as revenue for St Andrew’s Church. Due to COVID-19 the centre has had a difficult year and at the end of October 2020, the centre staff were made redundant. A volunteer interim management group, made up of members of the church, are now in place running Cullompton Community Centre (Operations) Ltd. There are plans to rent out some of the space on a long-term basis and for a phased opening of the rest of the centre once the easing of COVID-19 restrictions allows.

Financial Review:

Total receipts of Unrestricted Funds amounted to £248,382 which is a fall from the £275,477 received in 2019. The main reason for the reduction in unrestricted income is the fall in cash collections as a result of the lockdown restrictions arising from the on-going pandemic. During 2020 a further £1,235 (2019: £16,983) was received towards designated funds. Restricted income amounted to £86,108, of this £46,800 is from the Culture Recovery Fund Heritage Grant to support the church through the pandemic.

Total expenditure for unrestricted funds was £227,268. After transfers between funds the General Fund was showing a surplus of £6,888, Designated Funds a surplus of £4,145 and Restricted Funds a surplus of £57,557 for the year.

The transfers between funds include a sum of £22,875 to the PCC Designated Outward Giving Fund from the general Fund with further details in note 19 below. We committed £120,000 of our expenditure in Common Fund payments to the Diocese.

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST ANDREW'S, CULLOMPTON TRUSTEES' REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Reserves Policy

The PCC aims to maintain a balance in General Reserves equal to 6 months of budgeted expenditure. For 2020 this amounts to an aim of £121,000 based on the 2021 budget, however actual reserves from 2020 (including those brought forward) total £102,602, representing only 5 months budgeted expenditure. The policy has changed from 2 months expenditure in 2018 to the current level, so we are still building up this reserve, and additionally due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the resultant loss of some income streams the Trustees have had to utilise rather than fully build general fund reserves in 2020. The PCC has decided to increase the reserve up to 6 months of budgeted expenditure in order to protect against unexpected costs or loss of income, so that we can protect our increasing staff team and continue to meet all our commitments in regards to support for other groups through outward giving. The PCC continued to watch expenditure closely during 2020 and will continue to do so in 2021.

The PCC also hold a number of designated reserves which are set aside for particular projects, details of these reserves are at note 21. The most significant of these is the Property fund which represent the carrying value of the Community Centre building and is therefore designated in a separate reserve as not freely available to spend.

In addition the PCC receives monies for various projects where the terms of the funding are restricted. At the year end the restricted fund reserves total £88,197. This represents the funds received that have not yet been spent on the specified project. Details of these reserves and the projects they will be spent on is shown at note 22 below.

Trustees' responsibilities in relation to the financial statements

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and UK Accounting Standards. A financial statement which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity is required each year. In preparing the financial statements the trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the charity and enable them to ascertain and ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent Examiner’s Report on the Unaudited Financial Statements to the Trustees

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2020 set out on pages 8 to 22.

Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair' view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

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 in, any material respect, the requirements:

  2. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and

  3. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement to give the accounts a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination

have not been met; or

  1. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST ANDREW'S, CULLOMPTON NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS - YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Note 1 Accounting policies

a) Basis of preparation of financial statements

The PCC is a public benefit entity within the meaning of 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 PCCs, and with the Regulations’ “true and fair view” provisions. The financial statements have also been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (FRS 102) (effective October 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102) (second edition – October 2019)).

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value except for freehold properties which have been included at revalued amounts.

The accounts present the results of the Charity only and do not include the results of the trading subsidiary, as the group is small, and the charity is therefore exempt from preparing consolidated accounts.

b) Asset Policy

Fixed Assets purchased for continuing use by the charity for the furtherance of its objectives are capitalised at cost (where cost is over £1,000) and depreciated over their economic lives, other than freehold property which is valued at market value at the balance sheet date and the gain or loss taken to the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA).

c) Depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are written off over their useful economic lives as follows:

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.

d) Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designed for other purposes. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for a particular area or work.

e) Incoming Resources

All incoming resources are included in the SOFA when the charity is legally entitled to the income the trustees are virtually certain they will receive it and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included in these accounts. Grants and donations are only recorded in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources. Investment income is included when receivable.

11

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST ANDREW'S, CULLOMPTON NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS - YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

f) Resources Expended

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. The charity is registered for VAT and all expenditure excludes this where appropriate. Costs of generating funds comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income. Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirement of the charity and include the examination fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity.

g) Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

h) Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

i) Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

j) Financial instruments

The PCC only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

k) Lease

The PCC has leased the Community Centre to Cullompton Community Centre (Operations) Ltd for 25 years from 13 August 2012 at a peppercorn rent and with a premium of £75,000. The premium is being released as income into the accounts over that period on a time related basis.

l) Concessionary Loans

Concessionary loans made are initially recognised in the statement of financial position at the amount paid. Where interest is payable, the carrying amount has been adjusted to reflect the accrued interest. To the extent that any loan becomes irrecoverable, and impairment loss would be recognised in the statement of financial activities. Further details of the loan arrangement can be found at note 13.
