Our Prayer for a Growing Church
God of mission,
who alone brings growth to your Church,
send your Holy Spirit to give Vision to our planning,
Wisdom to our actions, and Power to our witness.
Help our church to grow in numbers.
in spiritual commitment to you
and in service to our community,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
Welcome to our Parish Year Book. In these pages you will find not just the
necessary reports far our church's annual meetings, but also reports
from the groups which make up the living church here.
We are a community of faith in the heart of Huddersfield. We worship
together and live out our Christian faith together. As God's family in this
place, we try to make our life here one that informs, inspires and
resources daily Christian living. We also look out to our Parish and our
town, the places we are called to offer the care for others that Christian
living asks of us.
How we do this is represented in these pages. There are groups for alL
ages. There are groups who look after the church so that it's here for the
cornmunity. There are groups who look afterthe community so they know
the church is for thern and for everyone to know the Love of God in
cornmunity.
This year the reports have been grouped under headings which reflect our
aims together as a Diocese- Living, Loving, Learning. Though there is
obvious overlap between these- they are included as a reminder that we
are part of God's bigger picture across our area and all God's worLd.

Please take the time to Look through these pages and give thanks to God
for all the people you find here and their ministry. Please Listen too to
where God is calling you to be part of this beautifuLjigsaw of service,
celebration and support.
2023 At HPC-Vicar's Re
ort
2023 was a year of growth and change in the life and worship of our
church- which is saying both something and nothing! Change is
inevitable, and Jesus Christ is our inspiration and guide. Our participation
in the life of our church, our pursuit of good lives of faith together here , is
a hand outstretched- reaching forthe anchor that is Christ in the storm
of life. The steps we take to gather together, in worship, in social action,
in friendship and care for one another, are steps boldLy taken on the rocky
way illumined by Christ's light.
Churches like ours are unique places in a world where much has become
separate. There are places to be healed or cared for- places to learn-
places to celebrate- places to meet people- places to reflect- maybe
even an app for each of these things and many morel
Here we do not separate the community life we lead into such boxes. Our
Lives as individuals are rooted in our understanding of who God has
shown Godself to be in community: Creator, Saviour and Life-giving Spirit.
So we choose to Live in communitywith one another. The God who
inspired our ancestors to build beautiful spaces to share the Gospel is
the God who draws us here for all of life. We are here for celebration and
for deep sorrow, for the light-hearted and the heavy hearted. We are here
to create in our turn and offer worship to the gLory of God.
As I reflect on 20231 think of the occasions when I have had the privilege
to represent our faith community and the Church of England here in
HuddersfieLd. at events such as community Iftars, the Ahmadiyya annual
Peace Symposium, the Launch ofthe PoppyAppeal, and uniquely in 2023

the rededication of the restored Syngenta War memorial, originalLy
dedicated by one of my predecessors. In May I was invited by the Mayor
of Kirklees, Cllr Cahal Burke, to be one of his Chaplains- serving
alongside my Roman Catholic colleague here in the town centre, Very Rev
Canon Martin KeLIy.
Working together has been a joy, and I hope a sign of Christian unity to the
communities we serve.
I think too of the occasions when in our Civic ministry together we have
offered the hospitality of St Peter's. In 2023 we welcomed the Ukrainian
community to a Peace Vigil in February. inviting all to pray on the
anniversary of the current Russia Ukraine confLict. We hosted the priestly
ordinations for the Huddersfield Episcopal Area in June and hosted our
first and hopefully not our last"Celebrate Huddersfield" Civic service in
September.
In Interfaith Week we welcomed 200 primary school children from the
Huddersfield area to explore our building and the Christian faith. as well
as being part of the annual"Friendship Walk" where anyone can explore
our church, the Hindu Temple and the Sikh Gurdwara. We also opened
the church (in partnership with KirkLees Councilwho provided
equipment) for the community to watch the Coronation of King CharLes,
and we have had the joy of welcomed the new Bishop of HuddersfieLd,
the Right Reverend Smitha Prasadam, to our town.
The biggest event of the year- bigger even than our huge Civic
Remembrance Service-and happeningin the same weekend- was the
original theatre production of Beowulf. This was brought to St Peter's by
Proper Job Theatre as part of Kirklees Year of Music 2023 and funded by
the Arts Council. This was a huge undertaking and I feel reminded us that
we have the capacity in both our building and our people to think big-
especiaLly when we can work in partnership with other organisations.

l also wanted to note with thanks the change of staff in our Parish Office.
Mitchell Wright, aLso a member of our choir. left his role as Parish
Administrator in August, to move into full time music teaching. I wish to
thank mitch for all the work he did for the church. and also to thank PCC
members Diane and Tony for their support in the recruitment of our new
administrator, Angela (also a member of our choir!)
l also want to inclLJde here my particular gratitude to our aLI Church
Wardens- both to Mike and Alan whose term of office ended in 2023, and
to the new Warden team- Verity. Megan, Nicholas and Alastair. whose
term began at the 2023 APCM. For all they have done and all they still do
thanks be to God.
Huddersfield Parish Church, St Peter's, in an extraordinary place. Not
because it is big, or seems important because of our location or civic
links, but because it has the capacity to be big hearted. a generous
witness to the transforming power of the Gospel. The stones and
coloured glass, the beautifuL things given for the glory of God by our
ancestors are wonderful. But they are stilljust the clayjar. The clayjar
holds the treasure which is wonderful people, made by God, here to
worship God and be inspired for ser￿iCe across Huddersfield and beyond.
Thank you for allyou are- and all we can be together here.
Rev Canon Rachel Firth
2023 PCC report from the Wardens The APCM in April 2023 saw
the retirement of wardens Alan and Mike after a combined 17 years of
service, and the election of a new warden team in the form of Megan, and
Verity, with deputies Alastair and Nicholas. The warden team would Like
to thank Mike and Alan for their work over the years, and their support
during the changeover. Change is never easy, but the new team were keen
to continue the good work of the previous warden team.

The PCC has been as busy as ever, with many noteworthy things taking
pLace this year. The following list gives some highlighted activities of the
PCC and the warden team.
PCC meetings have been held monthly, with a welcome move made
to hybrid meetings, combining'in person, with Zoom attendance
Charitable giving has continued, with a number of charities
benefitting, including Huddersfield Town Breakfast Clubs. and Water Aid
Continued support has been provided for church members in need,
as well as for those in the wider parish, ranging from train tickets and
utiLity bill heLp, to rent assistance and food parceLs
An away day in JULY 2023 focussed on how the PCC can enhance the
work of St Peter's and prompted thoughtfuL and creative discussion
The PCC has been fully involved in plans for and decisions related to
the recentLy started buildingwork
The PCC approved the provision of free of charge sanitary products
in church. These have been much appreciated by visitors
With the help of funding from Kirklees council, the church as a
whole was privileged to be able to step in when the Welcome Centre
experienced a temporary closure, expanding on the work we already do in
signposting people to support services, and providing practical heLp
Acting on feedbackfrom readers and intercessions, we are
continuing to work on accessibility for volunteers
Work continues on increased use of inclusive language and actions,
helping us stay Open, Warm, and Welcoming, and responding to the
needs of an increasingly diverse congregation
This year saw the formation of a new subgroup, focussing on social
events and community fundraising. Their hard work has shone through

especially at the Christmas Fair this year. which featured local author,
Joanne Harris as special guest. Other subgroups continue to do
important work across the church community
After a breakdown in the sound system the PCC agreed to replace it
entirely, in orderto support services as well as the increasing number of
community events and performances we are hosting as a church.
The warden team are grateful for everyone's support over the past year,
and forthe time that increasing numbers of people are giving to the
church as volunteers.

Living our Faith at HPC
Eco Church
ou
The Eco-church group is a sub-group of the
PCC- making recommendations to the PCC and exploring this part of our
shared ministry. The group seeks to ensure that we are doing our best to
maintain our Christian imperative to be committed to be environmentally
responsible and to ensure that we are striving to reduce our carbon
footprint.
Over the year we have been busy and to give a flavour of the things the
group have been doing: We committed to work towards the silver eco
award, having achieved the bronze award last year. We held an event to
give people the opportunity to check out their carbon footprint at a
Saturday morning coffee gathering. We have been looking at what we buy
to ensure that as far as possible we are sourcing local and
environmentally friendly products.

We held a wonderfuL eco waLk as part of Lent where we walked the parish
boundary and prayed forthe environment as we did so. We engaged with
an environmental audit of the church and explored more environmental
utility providers. We encouraged an expLoration of where church
investments were held to ensure that we were managing all of our
investments responsibly. We would love to hear from anyone who would
be interested in joining us as we continue this important work.

Inclusion Sub
roup As part of our church vision for 2022-2025 the PCC
identified inclusion as a vital part of our ministry at HPC. This sub-group
seeks to ensure that we are doing our best to engage with issues of
inclusion and converseLy to address those things which might exclude.
As a group we have engaged and grappLed with all manner of issues over
the year: we have been working to ensure that the disabled access routes
are open as often as possible to ensure access for those who cannot use
the steps. We have worked to improve access to large print orders of
service and notice sheets. The hearing loop has been fixed. We have
updated our inclusion and equality, diversity and inclusion policies. We
are delighted to have been able to provide sanitary products in the toilets.
We drafted a letter to Bishop Nick for the PCC about the Living in Love
and Faith process which led to further dialogue with the Bishop.
We have explored inclusion of children and young people and ensuring
that their voices are heard. We are working to ensure that people feel they
can use the language that enables them to best participate in worship.
This is not an exhaustive list but some of the wonderfuL things this group
has been involved with this year.

We would Love to hear from anyone who would like to join us in this vital
work for a church who is signed up to the IncLusive Church Network.

Hannah Talbot, Diane Groom
Cornmunication Sub-Grou
The communications sub-group was set
up following the PCCS 2021 Vision Day. Things that have been done
under this umbrella include the introduction of the digital notice board,
which now advertises services and events in the parish and Diocese, and
the updating of internaL notice boards.
In 2023 the group looked at our Social Media Policy and brought a
proposal to PCC to ensure we are careful, appropriate and effective in our
use of social media. A review ol church signage led to the PCC deciding
to purchase an additional street sign to show when the church is open
(based on the effectiveness of external signage when the Queen's book of
condolence was open in church).
An existing external sign has also been refurbished, with thanks to Mike
Bembridge, and similarly the signage on the corner of Byram Street has
been awaiting good weather to be refurbished as part of the
Communications Group plans.
Longdiscussion through 2022 and 2023 about our communication with
housebound parishioners and the posting out of notice sheets has bourn
fruit in 2024 with a monthly newsletter. If you know anyone who wouLd
like to receive such a newsLetter, either by emaiL as a pdf or a hard copy,
please let the office and the pastoral care team know.

SooiaL& Fundraisin
Sub-Group This year saw the creation of the
Social and Community Fundraising Group. The group works on events
throughout the year which aim to bring people together in different ways.
This year the group organised the Christmas Fair and contributed games
to the shrove Tuesday pancake party. We are always looking for new
ideas for social events and activities. If you would like to be involved you
would be verywelcome._Megan Barford (Chair)
Crafters & Grafters The Grafters and Grafters group meet on the first
Thursday of the month at the back of church between 10.00am and 12.00
noon. The aim is to share fellowship whilst chatting, exchanging ideas,
and enjoying refreshments. We produce crafts which are donated or sold
to raise money, around £500, at events such as coffee mornings and fairs.
We also ran a craft stall in the Packhorse Centre in December and plan an
Easter craft stalL at Huddersfield Royal Infirmaryfor Church funds.
We like to try our hand at new crafts. and in the last year have undertaken
stone painting, making wooden nativity sets, bargello, wreath making and
crocheting. New members and ideas are always welcome.

Loving one another at HPC
Rainbow Eucharist The Rainbow Eucharist Service is a quite new
initiative here at St Peter's which has flourished in 2023 with a committed
congregation. We have seen guest speakers including our own Megan
Barford. Canon Rachel, and brilliant guests such as Dr Paul Whittaker,
and Rev Binga ALlison.

This service relies on a core team made up of: David Heathcote, Nicholas
Benn, Megan Barford, ALan Eastwood, Diane Groom and myself. We also
work alongside our wonderful music group and serving team and l am
deeply grateful to each and every person who puts so much work into this
service.
We always end with a simple supper and drinks. The whole congregation
stay for this and there is a growing sense of community belonging. We see
a number of people who have been fearful about comingto church who
are given the courage to come bythe intentionality of this service. We
have seen some wonderful exampLes of peopLe walking through the door
and beginning fabulous faith journeys that they did not think possibLe.
If you have not yet been to Rainbow Eucharist I deepLy encourage you to
come and try it and see what God is doing in and through this wonderfuL
team of people.
Rev Amanda
The service is at 6.30pm on the fourth Sunday of every month.
Pastoral Care Team The pastoral care team is made up of members of
the community here who have felt Galled to the ministry of care for others
on behalf of the whoLe community. Each pastoral carers has a group of
parishioners to care for. They keep in touch with those in their care,
checkingwhether people are well or worried and when people are absent
from church the PastoraL Carers will contact and/or visit them to check
they are OK. Pastoral carers keep the cLergy updated with the wellbeing
or otherwise of the people in their groups.
We meet together regularly. 4 or 5 times a year, to keep up to date with
any new people on the ElectoraL Roll, making sure that each new person
is assigned a named Pastoral Carer

We also meet once a month to pray together for our church community
and the wider community of Huddersfield. At this service of community
prayers we pray for people who have asked for our prayers by name, as
well as praying for those whose year's mind comes during that month.
We are currently looking to recruit new carers and to find an experienced
carer to take the roLe of Pastoral Care Coordinator.
If you are interested in finding out more please see Rev Carol, Jane
Bembridge, Chris Sparks or Stephen Smith.
Rev Carol (Pastoral Care Co-ordinator) and The PastoraL Care Team

Communion service (12.35pm) from Wednesday May 1,2024. Ifyou
don'tknow who yourpastoral carer is please ask one of the team.
Children Youn
Peo
le & Families This year we have discussed how
to deal with the wonderful joy of a growing number of children, young
people and families within our commLJnity. We have had around 35
children and young people in our community throughout 2023.
Junior Church continues to thrive and we owe a huge thank you to Ide
Wise the Junior Church Coordinator and all of those who lead and help
this ministry. The subgroup have discussed a lange of issues to ensure
the safety and well-being of our children and young people both during
and after the services.
Last year saw another group of children and young people make their next
step of faith at our Initiation Service. This is undoubtedLy a vital part of
discipleship for our children and young people.
The servingteam continues to be a place of engagement for our children
and young people which is a gift to see and many thanks to head server
Pam for the brilliant work that she does.

We had a summer barbeque which was a loveLy social time and well
attended, we seek to grow the number of socials that we provide to allow
our families to get to know each other better.
This subgroup is: RevAmanda (Chair), Verity Quarmby, Tatenda Mutasa,
Jane Bembridge, Ide Wise. and Alan Eastwood.
Pra

In September 2023, five
members of our congregation at Huddersfield Parish Church travelled
together to Ripon Cathedral for a Rhythm of Life event. From this we were
very inspired and have since set up our now established Prayer Chain
with fifteen members of our congregation. We are committed to pray for
all who need - for you, for a person or situation close to home or far away
we offer confidential prayer.
Foltowing on from this we have committed to re-estabLishing Prayer

Learning our Faith Together at HPC
Encom
ass Everywednesday straight after the Eucharist our
Encompass Bible Study meets. We are a diverse community who gather
to build community, share friendship and a love of Jesus and the Bible
together.

Once a month we have lunch together, with deep thanks to Jane and
Michael Bembridge and Alan Eastwood for making and serving lunch. The
community are always delighted when they are with us, they are a vital
part of the work that we do. The Christmas meal is a big highlight of the
year, where around 28 of us sat down to a three course meal and the
group aLL got a gift. For some of the community this is the only Christmas
meaL and the onLy gift they received. We manage to secure funding for
this from South West Yorkshire Partnership Trust.
Other highlights have been reading through the whole of the Gospel of
Mark, Acts and ReveLation together. and the growing and deep friendship
and support within the group.
Huge thanks to Susan Middleton who has helped with this group but now
stepped back and to CaroL Hunt and Christine Sparks for their support.
There have been question marks over succession of this group but the
fabuLous Jane Rigg is now sharing leadership and will ensure that this
group continues to flourish and thrive together.

Evenin
Bible Stud Grou
2023 Throughout the year the evening
Bible study group met one evening per week usually for periods of 6
weeks following the liturgical year of the church.
The topics for discussion are decided in advance by the group members
and have included, discussion of the previous Sunday readings and the
sermon during Lent and reviewing Archbishop Welby's book Dethroning
Mammon. This book considers and challenges how society and churches
address the power money and finances are given in daiLy life. Films and
TV programmes have aLso been used to challenge and enable our
discussions.

The group consists in total some twelve to fourteen members. We have
met onLine via Zoom in the winter months and in person at church- as
well as enjoying a meal together in the summer. We are an open group
and welcome new peopLe. Please do consider joining us.

Bell Rin
ers HPC have a team of bell ringers who support our worship.
Our Tuesday evening ringin has continues to flourish throughout the year.
We don't always have sufficient foLks to ring aLI 10 bells every week,
though we have more often than not rung 8 and have been in a position to
tackle more intricate methods, culminating in a full peaL in February at
Ripponden of 8 spliced Surprise Major.

Our next project is to practice and attempt a quarter peal of "Horton's
Four" (London, Bristol, Glasgow, Belfast.)
Between March and October we rang a total of 7 quarter peals, rang for
the King's Coronation and entertained both a visiting band from the
BristoL area in April and the Yorkshire Association of Change Ringers in
July.
If there is a downside I have been disappointed that we have not
managed to ring a bit more often on a Sunday. There are a number of
factors for this, principally a shortage of folk available to ring, illness and
other churches aLtering their serdice times.
In earlyApril Smiths of Derby upgraded the chiming mechanism on the
clock as we had problems with the weights not rewinding after striking.
While this work was being carried out they notices 2 of the spotlights for
the clock faces were showing signs of burning on the plastic cases. They
suggested replacingthese with suitable LED lights which wouLd be
cheaper to run and this was passed to the Church Wardens.
We carried out our annual visual inspection ot the bells and fittings in
nd
ApriL, when it was noticed that the wooden wheel on the 2 bell has
disintegrated around the garter hole. As is meant the wheel would
require dismantling and sending off to TayLors BeLI Foundry we sought
perrnission to carry our this work which was organised via Buildings
Group. David Pygott at Taylors was a great help getting the wheeL off the
bell and both delivering and returning the wheel and refitting it aLI free of
charge- thereby savingthe church in the region of £500 from the originaL
quote.
Various other repairs have been done throughout the year including a new
th
"dingle box" on the 6 , 3 stays and rope repairs and replacements.

The wooden shute on the 2nd bell has been removed as it was loose on its
fixings. Hopefully with another pair of hands this can be fixed back in
pLace securely.
As we move into March/April 2024 we will be engaging in our usual
sweeping of the stairs, cLock room and bell chamber. hoovering the belL
frame and having a general tidy up.
Alan Trebble, Tower Captain
If you're interested in giving bell ringing a try, please contact the office.
Choir The choir has had a productive and fruitful year with many
highlights, and many significant achievements which are to be
ceLebrated. We have also had some experiences from which we need to
learn for the future, and we hope that this will assist us in our continual
drive to drive up standards within the music department.
Choir rnembership continues to be good. We have a healthy baLance
between stuclent members and adult volunteers which is pleasing, and
aLI mernbers of the choir are very committed to the music that they make,
and the continuing success of the choirwithin the church, attending
services and rehearsals as regularLy as they are able.
We said goodbye to some excellent scholars, and have recruited some
new singers from the university. The scholarship places at present are
unfilled, aLthough we had responses initiallyto the advertising. Plans are
in place for advertising to go out earlier in the summer term, and to a
wider range of places in order to try and recruit new scholars for
September 2024

All of the choir members have worked very hard and produced some
outstanding music over the course of the year. Particular highlights in the
year have been material produced for the Kirklees service of
Remernbrance, helping us to reach members of the community beyond
the regular congregation, and the outstanding singing at the Nine Lessons
and Carols service, and in Holyweek duringthe Lead up to Easter. We are
regularly reminded what a professional privilege and a personal pleasure
it is to be participating in such high quality music making in the glorious
setting of Huddersfield Parish Church.
The streaming equipment continues to be used on a weekly basis, and
has proved very useful, not only in making the services available to those
who would not be abLe to access them otherwise. but aLso in making
avaiLable to us high quality audio-visual recordings of the performances
of the music department which can be used on social media and other
online assets to raise the profiLe of music within the church, and indeed
the church within the community.
Evensong is a particularfavourite service of the choir members- a full
choral evensong is somethingvery much enjoyed by the choir and the
attending congregation. It provides not only a superb musical
experience, but also a structured moment of quiet and reflection during
the week. Discussions are ongoing as to how this service can be
developed, not only within the musical context, but also to grow the
congregation and the online presence of this service so that it is able to
reach further into the community. Come and Sing Evensongs have
provided a good start on this, but there is more work to be done, and
definitely an audience to be found as we are the only full choral evensong
being sung outside the cathedraLs for a significant distance.

Other developments for our continued rebuilding include the restoration
of the concert programme on Saturday lunchtimes. and the promotion of
the church as a venue for performances and rehearsals to other groups.
A compLete programme for 2024 is in place for monthly recitaLs on the
second Saturday of each month, with some people in place for 2025. A
growing number of externaL groups are Looking at using the church for
recitals and performances. It is hoped that strengthening ties with the
University, potentially through the choral scholarship scheme, may help
in this regard.
The choir continues to be a cohesive and social unit as well as a very
musical one, and social events have been enjoyed after the nine lessons
and carols service, some of the Evensong services and also during Holy
Week as the choir and other members of the church ate together
between services.

Formal Reports for the Annual
Church Meetings
Treasurer's Report
The year has seen an increase in the leveL of Income compared to 2022
of around 30/0 but a substantial increase in expenditure of around 43¥0.
Income rose by £5.000 and expenditure rose by £62,000 resulting in a
negative balance of £21.500 compared to a positive balance of £35,000 in
2022.
The primary changes compared to 2022 were:
On the Income side we received consistent crypt rent, various grants and
drawdown from our Investments. Regarding the various donation
categories there was very littLe change in the total contributions with
around £52,000 each year.
On the expenditure side the significant increases compared to 2022 were
in Gas, Insurance, Clergy expenses, Parish Share, a new Sound System,
Missionary and Charitable giving, Church repairs and maintenance and
Professional fees associated with the new building project and an
increase in musician salaries.
On our Investment side we did transfer £20.000 from one of our Reserve
Accounts to Redmayne Bentley, we also retained the monthLy Interest
within the Investment Account for 9 months which was around £9,000
but we had to recommence receiving the Interest as and from September
to support our Current Account. We also had to transfer £15,000 from our
Investments to also support our Current Account. The nett result of all

the manoeuvring is an increase in our portfoLio of around £13,000. The
portfolio at the end of 2023 was £327,000.
Our Charitable Giving appeared to increase but this was to adjust the
figure that had been agreed to be paid in 2022. A number of Grants and
donations were received towards various aspects of Church activities,
faciLities and Fabric
The Parish Giving Scheme was introduced duringthe year and we are
continuing to encourage contributing by this method. To date we have
around 20 peopLe contributing. As with all contributions we try to ensure
that aLI monies can be Gift Aided where possible
There are continuing efforts to raise income through the hiring of the
Church and the Crypt to outside organisations particularLy now that the
new kitchen is operationaL. Various events includingthe regular monthLy
Coffee Mornings have contributed to the raising of funds.
Unfortunately the Annual Accounts were not available in time for the
APCM but wilL be available shortly afterwards.
In conclusion not a very good Financial year for Huddersfield Parish
Church, let us hope that going forward we can encourage greater
contributions from our ever growing congregation, that use of our
facilities can be advertised to a wider potential market and that our in
house fund raising activities can be expanded. However we must
continue as a Charityto support the members of our congregation and
where appropriate those in the wider area of Huddersfield

Buildings/Fabric Annual Report
The Building Group has been meeting regularly. both as a full team and as
a subgroup to deliver the Multi Use Space.
Multi-use space: We entered into a grant agreement with Kirklees
CounciL which brought together funds from The Combined Authority and
Kirklees to the value of £471 k. The Highway Authority was also granted
funding to provide vehicular access to the space. Initial requirements to
spend £168k by the end of March 2024 were alleviated by KirkLees
working in partnership with us. This ensured that the tight timeline could
be met. ConsuLtation with stakeholders and the HPC community has
been carried out over several weeks. At the time of preparation of this
report a letter of intent with William GaLlagher Ltd had been signed and a
formal contract is in preparation.
Water Leakage: Yorkshire Water has issued a notice to HPC that
there is a water leak between the hydrant on Lord Street and the building.

Ecclesiastical Insurance have been contacted and assessed the claim
offering a contribution towards the estimated cost of rectification circa
£4k. In the interest of expediency. it has been agreed with Yorkshire Water
that the new pipe can be laid at the same time as the aforementioned
works at point 1.
Government Security Grant: A grant has enabled a new CCTV
system to be provided. also additional security locks on the Crypt doors
however they do not reLease automatically if the fire alarm is activated.
This is to be considered further before they become operational.
Wish List: For many years the group have operated this list which
identifies work that requires to be done and prioritises and categorises it.
Any member may make requests for works they have identified to be
included within it. We attempt to undertakejobs on working days and
please be encouraged to come along and help maintain this wonderful
place.
Quinquennial l Maintenance General maintenance issues have
been undertaken during the year and works to comply with the
Quinquennial report have been done. You are encouraged to read the
report to see the extent of our Architects findings and the general state of
the building.
Grant applications: At the time of writing, we await information
from the Arts Council as to the acceptance or otherwise of our
expression interest, to enable Phase 2 of the project to provide a new
entrance, a lift, toilets etc to enable access for all to the buiLding and
bring back into use the north balcony. An application to the W Yorks
Mayor's eco-fund for an upgrade to the church Lights has recently been
confirmed as successful. Several other grants have been successful
including a grant to replace the sound system.

Eco subgroup We have been working closely with the Eco group to
ensure we try to make the building as sustainable as possible. We are
pleased the church has bronze award and is working towards silver.
Danny (caretaker) Danny continues to work hard at keeping the
church, surrounding area and the car park clean and tidy. He takes great
pride in his work and is an asset.

Independent Examiner'5 report to the Parochial Church Council of SL Peter. Huddersfield
I report on the Financial Statemenls of the Parochial Church Council for the year ended 31.
December 2023.
Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and Independent Examlner
The Charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144{2) of
the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011Acl) and that an independent examination is needed.
11 is my responsibility to".
1. Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act
2. Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity
Commissioners section 14515){b) of the 2011 Act
3. State whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examlnerfs Statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity
Cotnmission and the Church Accounting Regulations 2006
An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Parochial Church Council
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 explanation from the Treasurer and
members of the Parochial Church Council conwning any such matters.
The procedures undertaken do not provide all the eviden￿ that would be required in a full audit,
and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the financial statements present a Irue and
fair view. and the report limited to those matters is set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner's Statement
The financial statements have been prepared on the accTuals basis. in accordance with Church
Accounting regulations and standards as set by the Statement of Recommended Practice on
Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP 2015)-
During rny examination of the financial statements all queries were answered satisfaclority by the
Treasurer and Adminislration Assistant. Extemal evidence on some transactions was obtained
where necessary.
In connection with my examination, no matters have come to my attention-
which give me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
to keep accounting records in accordance wth s.130 of the 2011 Act.. or
to prepare accounts whith accord with these accounting records have not been mel.. or
2. to which, in my opinion, altention should be drawn in order to enable a proper ullderslanding
of the accounts to be reached.

Independent Examiner'5 report to the Parochial Church Council of SL Peter. Huddersfield
I report on the Financial Statemenls of the Parochial Church Council for the year ended 31.
December 2023.
Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and Independent Examlner
The Charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144{2) of
the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011Acl) and that an independent examination is needed.
11 is my responsibility to".
1. Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act
2. Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity
Commissioners section 14515){b) of the 2011 Act
3. State whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examlnerfs Statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity
Cotnmission and the Church Accounting Regulations 2006
An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Parochial Church Council
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 explanation from the Treasurer and
members of the Parochial Church Council conwning any such matters.
The procedures undertaken do not provide all the eviden￿ that would be required in a full audit,
and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the financial statements present a Irue and
fair view. and the report limited to those matters is set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner's Statement
The financial statements have been prepared on the accTuals basis. in accordance with Church
Accounting regulations and standards as set by the Statement of Recommended Practice on
Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP 2015)-
During rny examination of the financial statements all queries were answered satisfaclority by the
Treasurer and Adminislration Assistant. Extemal evidence on some transactions was obtained
where necessary.
In connection with my examination, no matters have come to my attention-
which give me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
to keep accounting records in accordance wth s.130 of the 2011 Act.. or
to prepare accounts whith accord with these accounting records have not been mel.. or
2. to which, in my opinion, altention should be drawn in order to enable a proper ullderslanding
of the accounts to be reached.
