Ri$k Management
The Trustees have conSide￿d the major risks affects'ng the Charity and Consider that there are no risks of
significan￿. Finanaal risk is under control and is not significant. The Charity's assets are invested in
diversified portfolio of equities, funds, bonds and cash managed by an independent investment manager.
Cash is also held in the Charity's current account, so it is unlikely that Investments will have lo be realised
in disadvantageous circumstances with consequent adverse impact on the Charity.
The Pastorale's Safeguarding Officer ISO) for 2024-25 was trustee Lorna Smith. Safeguarding is an
agenda item al each trustee meeting. Pastorale staff have an annual meetr'ng with the SO lo review

Achievements and Performance
The Trustees and Council have continued to hold regular meetings during the year. Council meets at least
three lirnes per annum, with the Trustees meeting as required and at least three limes per annum. The
Trustees and Council have undertaken a detailed review of the aims of the Pastorale and how they may

and activities".
Chaplalncy and Outreach:
Postgraduate Student Welcome IPSWI With Freshers Fair having returned lo the Examination Schools
from October 2022 post-pandemic, in partnership with volunteers from local churches and the Graduate
Christian Fonjm, we handed out flyers for a number of welcome events including a Postgraduate Welcome
Dinner al St Aldales Church, a walking loui Df Oxford, a spou5esttamilies cream tea. a CS Lewis themed
walk and a prayer evening lo kick off the week. We had 300 students at the Welcome Dinner, requiring a
second venije to accommodate the demand. Each table was hosted by current postgraduates or academics
from local churches, and there was a talk from a Christian faculty member about navigating Oxford
successfully as a new postgrad. Many who attended were international, and of all faiths and none. Some
came thankful for a free meal. while others sought answers lo bigger questions about life and lailh. For
some. this may have been their first lime setting fool inside a Christian Church.
Stella Aldwinckle Serles: In p05t for a remarkable 25 years - from 1941 to 1968 - Stella Aldwinckle was the
first Pastorate Chaplain lo women students. One of her most notable achievements was the founding of The
Socratic Club. Estsblished in response to student demand from Somerville College, she asked C. S. Lewis lo
be ils first President, whilst she worked behind the scenes as ils Chair The Club quickly became one of the
most vibrant forums for religious debate in twenlielh-eenlury Oxford. Inspi￿d by Stella, and hef friendship
wlh Iris Murdoch, we established this series of discussion events for postgradLJates and early career
researchers promoting conversation among those of different research interests, and of all faiths and none,
on key themes relating to philosophies of life.

Partngrshlp wlth the Global Faculty Inltlative:
In 2024-25, the Pastorale continued lo develop its partnership with the Global Faculty Iniliats'vg. a project that
seeks lo promote the integration of Christian faith and academic disciplines by bringing theologians into

Financial Review and Reserv8$ Pollcy
The lolal income raised during the year was £124.07612024'. £128,583) and expenditure was £186,932
{2024'. £180,215). After including market value gains on investments, realised and unrealised, of £41,997
{2024". £57,661). the deficit from unrestricted reserves was £22.238 12024.. Surplus of £8,413>. with £nil
(2024.. nil movement) on designated funds, and a surplus of £1,379 12024.. deficit of £2,384} on reslricled
funds.
The charity holds funds for future operating requirements. Al 30 September 2025, the charity held
£1.210,289 12024." £1,232,527) in unrestricted general funds. The level of unreslricled reserves held is
sufficient lo cover the budgeted operating expenditure for the foreseeable future.
The Oxford Pastorate's apparently large unrestricted fvnd above is made up of a house Ilhe £581,926 in
'langible fixed assels'l which aets as a Rectory or Vicarage housing the Chaplain who. in accordan￿ with
our charitable purposes. is required to live within the City of Oxford. This house is required for the better
exercise of duties as is customary for Anglican ministers of this type.
The remaining significant assets of £665,208 are long-held investments designed to enable the ongoing
provision of an Oxford Pastorale Chaplain through the income derived from them. The Pa51orate's
investments have enabled us lo provide for a Chaplain's stipend for over 130 yeats and the expectation is
that these funds should continue to function in this way.
Current annual income of £124,076 does not meet our gxpendilure on ministry activity of £186,932 and we
are therefore not in a sustainable position. We have clear strategies lo close this funding gap within 3 years
through trusts. grantg and major donors.
Publlc Benefit
The Tluslees have complied with their duty lo have due regard lo the guidance on public benefit published
by the Charity Commission in exercising their powers and duties.
The Charity works lo promote a true and livety faith in Christ and a kno%￿edge of divine truth as held by the
Church of England. Ils advancement of the Christian faith is consistent ￿rith the promotion of a positive
moral and ethical framework demgnslrating that Christian faith has a beneficial impact on society,
parb"cularly through the cullivalion of virtue in poslgraduales with the aim ol developing goc¥J leaders and
wise thinkers. While the primary focus of the Charity's beneficial activities is on student member5 of the
University of Oxford, the extent of the benefit is experienced more widely through the inlera¢lion of
students, academlcs wc)rking in the University, Trustees and members of Council with wider soaely. This is
achieved, for example, through public lectures add￿SSIng topics of contemporary social relevance. through
programs facilitating the Integration of international students into British society. and through partnering
with other national and inlernalion81 1nsliluts.ons in the delivery of the religious-, academiG- and charader-
focused programs listed above.

The Oxford Evangelical Pastorate
Report of the Trustee5 (continued)
for the year ended 30 September 2025
The expectation is that growth in Christian discipleship amongst students of Chrtslian faith. and growth in
practical wisdom amongst students of other or no religious faith, wi15 help Oxford University poslgraduales
lo develop the integrity and character which will equip them lo be more effectwe leaders across many field5
in all parts of the world throughout their career5.
Plans for Future Periods
Since the appointment of a Chaplain in September 2008 the Charity's focus has been on the promotion of
the Christian faith among the postgraduate and research comrnunity of Oxford University. This work will
eonlinue, led by the Chaplain and a team comprisèd of Associate Chaplains, and an Adminislralor. There
will continue lo be a focus on personal contact by the Chaplain and the team with poslgraduale sludenls..
and on the organisalion of events, independently or in collaboration with the Oxford cily-cenlre churches,
the Graduate Christian Forum in the University. the chaplains of colleges and other. local organisalions.
We are continuing to develop our funding partnerships lo resource the growing mission and ministry. In
2025, In addition to partnerships with.. Developing a Christian Mind and The Global Faculty Inilialive.. the
work has been supported by individuals, local churches and Christian societies, and small funds. including
the Ashburnham Thanksgiving Trust. the Vine Charitable Trust and the Marsh Charitable Trust. We are
also working with a new trust this year who wish lo remain anonymous. We have continued running an
annual fundraising appeal over the summer months, encouraging existing financial donors lo increase their
giving and inviting new donors lo cornmit lo giving. New for th15 year, we also worked with a UK-based
Fundraising consultant who has advised us in our approach to larger trusts and foundations, and with The
FOCUS Group, a US fundraising consultancy, who have worked with us on our Major donor approach.
We expect our partnerships to develop in new ways now that a new Chaplain has been appointed, and for
new partnerships with Wyclrffe Hall, The Renaissance Project and others to develop. Fundraising efforts
will also be an area of fLKUS, with a goal to increase giving in future years. The work of the Charity will
continue to be reviewed al regular intervals by the Trustees and Council.
