## **TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT AND ACCOUNTS FOR THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST LEONARD’S  PARISH, HYTHE** 


## **Aims and purposes** 

The Parochial Church Council (PCC) of the parish of St. Leonard has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent, the Reverend Andrew Sweeney, to promote in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical.  The PCC is responsible for the maintenance of the two churches of the parish, St. Leonard’s and Holy Cross, and for the parish contribution, agreed by the Joint Council, to the St. Michael’s Methodist Anglican Church Centre (StMMACC). 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our churches and to become part of our parish community.  The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish and makes suggestions on how our services can involve all those who live within the parish.  Our services and worship put faith into practice through sacrament, prayer and scripture. 

When planning our activities for the year, the incumbent and the PCC have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion.  We try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our parish community through:- 

- i) Worship and prayer, and the development of spirituality through study and discussion 

- ii) Provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish.

## iii) Missionary and outreach work. 

To facilitate this work, it is important that we maintain the fabric of the churches in the parish. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

## _**Worship and Prayer**_ 

The PCC is keen to offer a range of services throughout the parish.  The Eucharist is central to our worship in the form of a sung eucharist with choir at St. Leonard’s, the Holy Communion service at Holy Cross is a more intimate said service.  In addition to these, Sunday morning worship services of varying character are held at Holy Cross and SMACCS where Holy Communion is celebrated once a month.  There is choral evensong at St. Leonard’s each Sunday evening.  There are also weekday services throughout the parish.Holy cross church has been closed since March. 

However, due to the Coronavirus pandemic this year with long periods of lockdown and various restrictions, many of these regular services have been put on hold.  Since the start of the first lockdown we have held morning and evening prayer daily ‘online’ via the Zoom system. 

All are welcome to attend our services.  At the present time there are120 parishioners recorded on the church electoral roll.  The average weekly attendance for the whole parish during October was 70 adults and ten children under 16. 

There have been 3 baptisms, 1 wedding and 4 funerals held in the parish and 11 funerals conducted on behalf of the parish at crematoria and cemetery’s. 

The church has remained open when permitted to do so.  Unfortunately the Crypt has remained closed all season due the pandemic. 

## _**Deanery Synod**_ 

3 members of the PCC sit on the Deanery Synod, providing an important link between the parish and the diocese. 

## _**Pastoral Care**_ 

The pastoral and healing team of the parish in liaison with the clergy have endeavoured to keep in contact with all who unable to get to church, in most cases by telephone as personal contact has not been possible. 

## _**Mission and Evangelism**_ 

Fund raising has not been possible this year due to the pandemic. 

The monthly Parish Review is distributed widely in the community and is available at the back of the church. 

2 



We continue to have strong links with Hythe Bay C of E Primary School.  Due to current restrictions, the regular visits from the school to church have not been possible this year. 

The links with Palmarsh School and Holy Cross church have also not been possible. 

## _**Parish Office**_ 

The parish office is, at present, operating from the vicarage, the office in Prospect Road was closed early in the year as the owner put the property up for sale. 

## _**Ecumenical Relationships**_ 

Churches together in Hythe and Saltwood is flourishing.  Unfortunately joint ventures like the Good Friday Walk of Witness was cancelled due to lockdown, as were all Easter activities. 

The Joint Council had one meeting in February but did not meet for the rest of the year and St.MACC’s has been closed since March. 

## _**Financial Review**_ 

Total receipts on unrestricted funds were £106,869 of which £759 was a gain on investments relating to the Martello Drive Fund. In addition, restricted income of £1,306 was also received and is detailed in the financial statements. 

Planned giving through banker’s orders and weekly envelopes was £57,018 (£54,425 in 2019) while the plate collections at services totalled £3,978 (£9,878 in 2019). 

The total expenditure required for the year was £ 146,898 of which £ 141,801 was from current unrestricted funds. 

The residential property known as Vergers was revalued during 2020 increasing the value of fixed assets by £125,000. 

The parish share as assessed by the Diocese of Canterbury was £86,470. The parish paid £60,000 of this during 2020 leaving arrears for the year of £26,470 and ongoing arrears of £128,776. An anonymous donation early in 2021 enabled the parish to clear the arrears for 2020. 

## _**Reserves Policy**_ 

Most of the parish reserves are unrestricted. Expenditure on the fabric of St Leonards Church is met by legacy funds or requires a request for funding from the Friends of St Leonards, a separate and independent charity. At the end of the year £27,059 remains from a legacy received in 2018. 

The parish receives rent from a residential property which may be used for general purposes as well as the upkeep of that property. 

3 



The restricted and unrestricted funds totalled £36,879 as at 31 December. In addition there are long term investments held with CBF Church of England funds of £8,195. 

## _**Volunteers**_ 

Our large team of volunteers is what makes the church function.  These include members of the PCC, altar servers, church cleaners, sides persons, choir members, bell ringers, coffee members, flowers arrangers, churchyard maintenance workers, church crypt stewards and many others, all of whom add up to a band of helpers who willingly give their time for the good of our church community.  All of which we are truly grateful and offer our heartfelt thanks to each one of them. 

## _**Structure, governance and Management**_ 

The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. Here in the parish of St. Leonard the membership of the PCC consists of the Priest in Charge, associate and assistant clergy, the churchwardens, the lay reader, members of the deanery synod and members who are elected by those of the congregation who are on the electoral roll of the parish.  All who are members of our congregation are encouraged to register on the electoral roll and stand for election to the PCC. 

The PCC is responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the parish including decisions about how funds of the PCC are to be spent. 

The full PCC, under normal circumstances, would meet ten times during the year with an average level of attendance of 70%.  Committees of the PCC are the Standing, Finance and Crypt.  They are all responsible to the PCC and report back to it regularly.  The Anglican-Methodist Joint Council also provides regular reports to the PCC. 

The parish and PCC take the issue of safeguarding very seriously and our safeguarding officer, Marilyn Johnson, has continued to promote safeguarding training throughout the parish ensuring that all who require training are able to access stages 1 and 2. 

## _**Administrative Information**_ 

The Parish of St. Leonard is part of the Canterbury Diocese within the Church of England. The correspondence address is The Vicarage, Oak Walk, Hythe, Kent CT21 5DN. 

The PCC is a body corporate (PCC Powers Measure 1956, Church Representation Rules 2011) and was registered as a charity (No 1144695) on 16 November 2011.

_The accounts include all transactions, asset and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body nor those that are informal gatherings of Church members._ 

## _**Incoming Resources**_ 

## _**Voluntary income and capital sources**_ 

_Collections are recognised when received by or on behalf of the PCC. Planned giving receivable under covenant or gift aid is recognised only when received. Income tax recoverable on covenants or gift aid donations is recognised when the income is recognised. Grants and legacies to the PCC are accounted for as soon as the PCC is notified of its legal entitlement and the amount due._ 

_Funds raised as a result of specific fund raising events are accounted for gross. Sales of books and guides are accounted for gross._ _**Other ordinary income** Rental income from the letting of church premises is recognised when the rental is due._ _**Income from investments** Dividends and interest are accounted for when receivable.

_**Gains and losses on investments**_ 

_Realised gains or losses are recognised when investments are sold. Unrealised gains or losses are accounted for on revaluation of investment on 31st December._
