Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2022 ## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period from 1 October 2021 – 30[th] September 2022** ## **Charity name:** Ealing Green (Methodist & United Reformed) Church. ## **Charity registration number** : 1144083 ## **Objectives & Activities:** **Summary of the purposes of the Charity as set out in its governing document:** Ealing Green Church (EGC) is a partnership between the United Reformed and Methodist Churches to offer public Christian worship, service and pastoral care in the heart of Ealing. Its members come from around the world and are from a variety of Christian and social backgrounds, and different kinds of households. Its worship and study groups are open to all: all are welcome to receive communion and participate fully in the worshipping life of the community. The church seeks to meet people as and where they are, and to be a safe space for vulnerable adults and children: it has strong safeguarding policies. As a part of the Ealing Trinity Methodist Circuit the church shares ministry and mission with six other Methodist churches in the London Borough of Ealing, and over one hundred United Reformed Churches in the Thames North Synod. It maintains links with churches of different denominations in the area. Ealing Green Church is a charitable, unincorporated association governed by a constitution adopted on 20th March 2011. The trustees of the church are the members of the Church Council elected by members of the church at its Annual General Meeting. The members of this council are responsible for ensuring that the activities undertaken by the church pursue the aims and purposes and are also responsible for the maintenance of the buildings used by the church. The Council employs an Office Manager to assist with the administration of this work. **Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts:** The aims and purpose of EGC are to advance the Christian faith in accordance with the principles and practices of the Methodist and United Reformed Churches. This includes the celebration of public worship, teaching of the Christian faith, mission and evangelism, pastoral work, the provision of facilities with a Christian ethos for the local community and the support of other charities in the UK and overseas. **Worship** : Church services are open to all who seek to explore the Christian faith and those who wish to grow in faith. The church understands and acknowledges that this is best done in community where people feel safe to express themselves without fear of judgment. Worship is led by both ministers and trained lay people, and assisted by a small choir. Members enjoy a variety of approaches to worship aimed at offering a meaningful experience of encounter with God. The Reverend Sue Male became our Minister in 2018 and Sue has become an integral part of Ealing Green Church and has strengthened the variety of worship, pastoral care and our ecumenical links with other faith groups and other Christian denominations in our locality. 1 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2022 Services are held every Sunday at 11am, with additional services taking place for festivals such as Christmas and Easter and ECG occasionally hosts services for the circuit. Some Sundays the worship is held Café Style. Most Sundays, children and their parents or carers (if wished) can take part in a Junior Church, with All Age Worship taking place once a month. Our Sunday services are also livestreamed to our YouTube channel, Ealing Green Church. In addition, we host weekly online worship and prayer service, which brings together those from all three of the churches cared for by Sue, (being Ealing Green Church, Kingsdown Methodist Church and Pitshanger Methodist Church) including some of those who are housebound. A Discipleship group meets occasionally for discussion and reflection, and there is a monthly Bible study. ECG also hosts or offers other opportunities for study and reflection on a less regular basis. In addition, to the services led by Ealing Green Church, the **Polish Christian Church Emmanuel (Poles for Poles)** hire the hall every Sunday afternoon, offering protestant worship in the Polish language to the large Polish community in Ealing. Ealing Green Church has been delighted to welcome them back to our building once again, after the pandemic. **The effects of Covid19 on worship** : while the church was closed during the pandemic, ways of worshipping had to change. Some of these changes are now felt as positive additions to what we can offer, such as the ability to livestream our services each Sunday, and for those services to remain on our YouTube channel for viewing at a later time or date. There is a weekly Zoom prayer meeting still in operation, as discussed above. Safety measures introduced, such as hand sanitising ‘stations’ by building and room entrances remain in place, as does enhanced awareness of the need for ventilation. **Pastoral care:** _Pastoral Care is implicit in much of what we do as a Church and inherent in who we are as a community…. The Church exists to be a good neighbour to people in need... It asks, "How do we discover the needs in our community and respond to them? How do we develop friendly attitudes towards everyone we meet? Do we share with one another our concerns...?" We try to encourage the authentic care of, and inclusion of, those who for various reasons are on the periphery of the church.” (From the Methodist Church’s Website)_ A healthy Christian community is one in which people know that they are loved, visitors are welcome and young and old alike are valued and feel safe. The care that we offer, both at times of crisis and in everyday life is an active proclamation of God's love in Christ and for all the world. This is a statement from the Methodist Church, and we share this vision. Each member or regular attender at the church has a pastoral contact who will keep in contact with them in a non-obtrusive way and offer particular support at times of need. The church is also often asked to pray for those who are not part of the church life. Prayers are offered (with the person's permission) during our church services, through a prayer corner in the church, at our weekly prayer and worship services on Zoom, and through our Pastoral Committee’s email group. Church flowers are distributed each week to those who are unwell, or going through difficult times. Pastoral contacts were invaluable during lockdown and members of the church family phoned each other, offered fellowship, comfort and prayer support to those they watched over. The church magazine, Unity, continued to be 2 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2022 produced and was emailed or posted to all, and we thank our editor Lee for working so hard to keep the magazine going. Even though the pandemic is behind us, a monthly pastoral prayer letter is still sent out to those who are unable to get to church for whatever reason, containing prayers, poems, stories, pictures etc., along with the ways of keeping in touch outlined above. Ealing Green Church is proud to be a Sight Loss Friendly Church and some members of the Pastoral Team have undertaken the required training with The Torch Trust, and one church member has been provided with the hymn book in braille. In addition we have some of the books of the bible also available in Braille. Large print bibles, hymn books and orders of service are always available. Looking forward to 2023, we plan to undertake ‘Dementia Friends’ training session, organised by the Alzheimer’s Association, which will hopefully enable EGC to become a Dementia Friendly Church. **Hospitality:** The church hosts a Monday Fellowship group, open to all, which meets fortnightly, free of charge. These meetings follow a programme with guest speakers & refreshments, and are greatly enjoyed by those who attend. Tuesday Coffee Mornings started in September 2022, and a warm welcome, along with teas, coffees, homemade cakes and other refreshments are available free of charge. Any member of the local community is most welcome to come along. The church provides a safe base for the Ealing Street Pastors on the nights that the team operates in central Ealing. Street Pastors resumed their patrols from Ealing Green in January 2022, and we were delighted to both welcome them back and also offer our prayer support. Occasional ‘Pot-luck Lunches’ are held after morning services are well attended and popular. While small groups had to remain at home during the pandemic the telephone and internet proved invaluable for keeping in touch, and the groups are now well attended post-Covid. Ealing Green Church supports the work of Ealing Churches Winter Night shelter and in previous years provided a venue for this one night a week for 6 weeks during January and February, providing a meal and accommodation for up to sixteen homeless people. This is staffed mostly by volunteers, supported by a project worker employed by ECWNS. As well as practical considerations such as food and shelter, the volunteers strive to create a warm welcome family atmosphere for those that attend. In January 2020 EGC installed an accessible wet room, in addition to refurbishing the main toilets, so that our guests could shower, rather than washing at a sink, and this was greatly appreciated. During this year the shelter had not yet resumed in its old format, but support was given in other ways for January/February 2022. In particular church members made meals once a week on ‘our’ night and these were delivered to the guests, who the shelter had accommodated in a hotel. Looking forward to January & February 2023, the church is pleased to host guests once again, with a team of willing volunteers. We look forward to providing an update regarding this, in next year’s annual report. Ealing Foodbank opened at Ealing Green Church on a Tuesday morning at the end of February 2019, until March 2020, when the pandemic forced the Foodbank to change their way of working, and close their centre here at Ealing Green Church. The Foodbank has chosen not to return to EGC, however the 3 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2022 church continues to remain willing to assist and took the decision to support the Foodbank financially by donating £300 a month to help feed the local community, and this continues to date and forward to the end of the financial year in 2023. In addition, the premises are used by a growing number of community groups who pay hire charges which help to support the upkeep of the buildings. Regular users include Ealing Symphony Orchestra, Ealing U3A, Drama Studio London (now part of TVU), Ealing Choral Society, The Associated Boards of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM), Ealing School of Dance and a variety of classes, including Zumba and Mei Quan Tai Chi, and others. In addition the Church allows Alcoholics Anonymous and Al-Anon (for the families of alcoholics) to meet several times a week at minimal charge. During the pandemic, all groups had to stop meeting, however during the year many groups began to return, new hirers were welcomed, and the building is mostly busy once again. **Charitable support:** ECG regards giving as part of its work of mission and the church has supported a number of charities during the year, including Christian Aid, the Rehema Community Project in Kisumu Kenya, and locally Ealing Soup Kitchen, along with Ealing Churches Winter Night Shelter and Ealing Foodbank, as mentioned above. Much of this giving is from special collections at communion services. New for 2020 was monthly support to The Samaritans, first nationally and then locally, as their help was sorely needed by those in despair during the pandemic and afterwards, which will continue to the end of our financial year 2023, and will then be reviewed. 4 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2022 ## **Statement confirming whether the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit:** The trustees of EGC, who comprise of the Church Council Members, Minister and Treasurer, are provided with the relevant guidance issued by the Charity Commission, and follow this guidance to help them ensure their decisions adhere to the purpose of EGC for public benefit. ## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity's work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole:** Following refurbishment of the church in 2015, the versatility and usability of the church buildings increased considerably, meaning that more space can be made available to both church and community groups. The employment of the Church Office Manager has enabled substantial growth in the number of users, and hence in the church's income, and also in the relationship the church has with its users. The refurbishment both introduced a renewed energy in the church to reach out to the community in timehonoured and new ways, but maintaining the identity of the church as a place of prayer and a focus of the presence and love of God in the community. The church continues to seek to make that presence and love real through word and action, and offers particular support to local charities that serve the community. The church is also able to offer a wider variety of approaches to worship, including creative forms of worship which can offer a fresh perspective and open-up new understanding and insight. The church both actively and intentionally explores ways to promote growth, numerically, in terms of the knowledge, understanding and confidence of its members in relation to their faith; and in outreach to the community we serve. 5 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2022 ## **Financial Review** **Review of the charity’s position financial position at the end of the period:** Financial review to 30 September 2022 – note all figures in brackets refer to the previous year. **The total income** of the church in the year was £258,903 (£142,524). Of this £28,465 (£30,826) was voluntary income, income from activities for generating funds (lettings of the church hall and other rooms) was £75,487 (£20,431), and investment income was £85,304 (£91,267). We also received a one off payment of £69,648 as the result of an insurance claim for loss of income during covid. **Voluntary income** for the year of £28,465 (£30,826) is made up of donations and legacies from the church congregation and supporters. This income is still reduced somewhat from that of 2019, but as Covid lockdowns went on, folk did switch from donating cash/cheques at the weekly services, to making donations directly to the church’s bank account. Sadly we did lose some church members over the last year, which is loss to both the church family and also to the donations received. **Income from activities generating funds** came from the letting of the church and halls and amounted to £ 75,487 (£20,431): it is an aim of the church to make full use of the buildings as both an active worship space and community resource. The building is busy and is used by a wide variety of folk from our local community. However, from March 2020, lettings income was severely reduced as the building closed, this continued for the year-ending 2021, when income fell further from that of the previous year. Happily during this current year we were able to welcome both old and new clients to the building and lettings income is recovering. We were also fortunate to successfully make an insurance claim with our insurers, Congregational, for loss of income and increased expenses during the pandemic, and while it did not cover the entirety of the monies lost, it is gratefully received. This is a one-off payment amounting to £69,648. **Investment income** was £85,304 (£91,267). Of this £41,809 (£42,355) came from the three flats at 3 Victoria Terrace W5 and £42,475 (£48,689) from renting the Little Church building (2b The Grove, W5) to a children’s nursery. This latter income was higher in the previous year as the nursery was granted a rent-free period for a while during the pandemic (payment deferred until a later date), in order to support their business at a time when they could only accept the children of Key Workers. This is actively being repaid during year end 2021. Once this was done the income fell to normal levels once again, which accounts for the decrease in monies received. In addition, £1,020 (£222) was received in interest from financial investments, being the reserves held at the Central Finance Board of the Methodist Church, who were able to raise their interest rates somewhat. 6 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2022 ## **Expenditure in the year** amounted to £180,846 (£217,396). £86,894 (£102,226) was spent on **charitable activities** . This expenditure has three main components: 1. £67,344 (£72,969) was contributed to the sponsoring denominations through the assessment paid to Ealing Trinity Circuit of the Methodist Church and the church’s contribution to the United Reformed Church’s Ministry & Mission Fund. The reduction in the amount paid to the Methodist Church for 2022 fell by £5,625 (due to their own assessment) but this is due to be adjusted for 2023. At this time Ealing Green Church remains under Methodist Ministry and the different levels of contribution to the two sponsoring denominations reflects this fact. 2. Grants to charities amounted to £16,344 (£16,400). The Church has a policy of supporting charities in the UK and abroad in accordance with its stated aims. In addition, church members devote time and effort to maintaining links with charities, fundraising and working directly for them. Please see note 13.2 in the attached spreadsheet (CC17) for details of the charities supported in this financial year. 3. £3,172 (£12,857) was spent on the provision of music, Junior Church activities and other resources for the services of worship. The reduction in costs from the previous year can be wholly explained by planned repairs to the organ of £10,000. There was also a small payment made of £35, for an outing of the Monday Fellowship group. **The management, maintenance and insurance of investment properties** amounted to £16,016 (£26,807). In the year previously the increased spending is largely due to extra costs repairs and maintenance for the three flats at 3 Victoria Terrace, along with increased management fees due to two of the three flats changing tenancy, which has not happened to the same extent in the current year. The cost of insuring the properties has gone up slightly for 2022. **Other expenditure** amounted to £77,375 (£79,765). The cost of operating and maintaining the church buildings was £42,541 (£47,262), and the previous year’s figures include the installation of a livestream camera into the church space, to the benefit of those members of the church family and the wider community, who can now view the services online. The church office costs were £34,271 (£32,220), which includes the Church Office Manager’s salary. Other items contributing to this total includes the provision of hospitality and any other equipment purchased for the church or office. _Please note: the Trustees will be reviewing the basis of activity of expenditure to align to updated SORP reporting in the coming years._ 7 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2022 **Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held** : It is the policy of the church to maintain the equivalent of four months’ average expenditure approximately in unrestricted funds. Unrestricted expenditure was £170,809 in 2021/2022 and so unrestricted reserves should be approximately £57,000, which represents the expenditure pro-rated from that of 12 months, to four. During the pandemic general reserves were drawn down somewhat, although the cushion of the legacy received in 2020 largely remains, and during the year reported the settlement of the insurance claim, mentioned above was welcomed. At the end of the year the total equity of the charity was £307,869, of which unrestricted funds amounted to £298,164. It is the opinion of the Trustees that Ealing Green Church has sufficient funds to meet its day-to-day obligations, planned spending to the building (to improve the acoustics of the church for example) and to meet the reserves policy, and the church finances remain secure. The charity continues to operate as a going concern. **Principal Risks** : Ealing Green Church manages its risks and uncertainties in a proactive manner through a robust committee structure and control environment that is appropriate for the size of the Church. Since Covid 19 the Church has had to adapt its risk approach to cope with the pandemic across all areas of the Church, is in the process of aligning its objectives to its risks and is looking into a risk framework approach in future reports. 8 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2022 ## **Structure, Governance and Management** ## **Type of governing document:** by Constitution **How is the charity constituted** : Ealing Green Church is a charitable, unincorporated association governed by a constitution adopted on 20 March 2011. **Trustee selection methods, including details of any constitutional provisions:** Trustees are elected from among the Members by processes that are clear and open, at the Annual Congregational Meeting, following the rules laid down by the constitution. ## **Reference and Administrative details:** **Charity name:** Ealing Green (Methodist & United Reform) Church **Other name that the charity uses:** Ealing Green Church **Registered Charity Number:** 114403 **Charity’s Principal Address** : The Green, Ealing, London, W5 5QT 9 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2022 **Name of the charity trustees who manage the charity:** those who served as trustees as members of the Church Council and/or serve at the date of this report are: |Trustee name|Office (if any)|Dates acted if not for

If there is insufficient room here, please add a separate sheet.** Investment income is derived from the rental income of two properties: namely 3 Victoria Terrace, London, W5 5QS, and the former Little Church building at 2a The Grove, London W5 5LH. The property and financial assets that give rise to this investment income are excluded from these accounts, as they are held under schedule 2 of the United Reformed Church Acts, and are legally the property of the URC's Thames North Trust. Under an agreement between Thames North Trust and Ealing Green Church, the investment income is attributed to Ealing Green Church, as are the costs of managing and maintaining the properties and financial investments. This legal agreement is also in place and applies to the property at 19 Queen Anne's Gardens, London W5 5QD, which is currently used as a manse. CC17a (Excel) 07/07/2023 1 Ealing green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2022 ## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Ealing Green Church** I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 30 September 2022, which are set out on pages 11-30. ## **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: examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of independent examiner's report** My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 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 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 material matters have come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect - the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; or - the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or - the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content 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 ~~.~~ **Signed** : **S.
