ANNUAL REPORT ON THE YEAR 2023

Aims and Purposes

Christ Church PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the church: pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical. It also has responsibility for the maintenance of the parish church and its ancillary buildings.

Objectives and Activities

Every Anglican parish church is by definition a charity. This charity exists to take the good news of Jesus Christ to the communities of Christ Church Cheltenham. The church is called to make disciples of Jesus, connecting them with God, being community together and showing compassion to others.

Achievements and Performance

There were 197 members on the updated Electoral Roll presented at the APCM in 2023 (2022: 202). During 2023 we had 142 Easter communicants (2022: 285) and 333 Christmas communicants (2022: 160).

Financial Review

The accounts for the year show that during 2023 there was a deficit of income minus expenditure, after gains and losses of £23,361 (2022: deficit of £34,458).

The PCC funds consist of unrestricted funds, including general funds and designated funds, and restricted funds. Designated funds are monies set aside for a particular purpose by the PCC, a decision which they can reverse. The use of restricted funds has been prescribed by the donor and is irreversible.

During the year the designated funds were:

Youth Work To support the provision of youth and
children’s work at Christ Church.
Development (Des) Fund To provide for repairs, development and
re-decoration of the church buildings.

The Fabric designated fund was not used in the year and has been closed.

The restricted funds were:

Special Appeals To support missions and charities.
Miss Milne Fund To provide for lighting the church tower.
Friendship Club To provide a mid-week meal and social
activities for its members.
Playgroup To provide a pre-school play group facility
in the church halls.

The restricted Development Fund has not been used in the year and has been closed.

Reserves Policy

Unrestricted reserves are held to help manage short term adverse fluctuations in income or expenditure.

The PCC has a policy of aiming to hold available cash reserves, i.e excluding those backed by tangible assets or which are designated or restricted, in the range from £25,000 to £75,000.

Available cash reserves at 31 December 2023 were £38,049, which is below the midpoint of the range of the PCC policy (2022: £45,279).

VICAR’S REPORT

I'm pleased to present Christ Church Cheltenham's annual report for the year ending December 31st, 2023. This short report highlights the dedication of our parishioners, staff, and volunteers who contributed to our mission of spreading the good news of Jesus Christ, and encouraging all who engage with Christ Church to ‘Get connected, be community, and show compassion.’

Although all our Sunday services are now in person, we continue to provide a live stream most Sundays, understanding how valuable it has become to a number of people. We have seen many new faces at Christ Church in 2023 and we are beginning to see encouraging signs of growth.

Among so many other wonderful ongoing activities and events, two that have begun in 2023 are proving that when members of Christ Church take the lead in areas they are passionate about, we can see exciting signs that God is at work. The weekly ‘Friendship Cafe’ on Friday mornings has seen a constant stream of visitors for freely available coffee and refreshments, and the Youth Connect twice monthly group for school years 7-11 has seen a small but growing number of young people come for table tennis, table football, board games and refreshments, as well as ten-pin bowling and cooking round a fire.

Looking ahead, we're excited about upcoming opportunities and remain committed to adapting and innovating in our mission. We express gratitude to our staff, volunteers, and parishioners for their hard work, proud to be part of this remarkable community.

In Christ,

Rev Simon Heron February 2024

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees’ report and the financial statements in accordance with general applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom General Accepted Accounting Practice).

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year 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 for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2015 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safekeeping the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Parochial Church Council of Christ Church, Cheltenham for the year ended 31 December 2023 which are set out on pages 8 to 16.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act).

I report in respect of my examination of the charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent Examiner's Statement

Since the charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Signed:
