TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 MARCH 2024
ICKSP
Ss Peter & Paul St Philomena
We are serving as chaplains of the Carmelite Sisters in Birkenhead and have daily Mass at 8.30am.
There is daily mas ats 6.30pm Monday to Thursday and Saturday 10am and Sunday 8.30am and 10.30 am, with Lauds & meditation, adoration, Vespers (see website for times). There are also catechetical classes, preparation for baptism, Confessions, first Holy Communion and marriage. The Sunday congregation has now reached a stable number of 200-230 people on average.
After 10 years restoration of the church, ended September 22, and a special attention paid to the renovation of the heating system which failed in November 22, and was renewed in March 23, we were able to fix minor issues on the presbytery roof (March 24), which was damaged by the recent several winter storms. The insulation has been upgraded (October 23), helping us to significantly reduce the heating costs of the house. The main electrical power has been completely replaced (June 23), providing more safety, as the old one suffered of humidity and was becoming dangerous, with risks of electrical shocks. A complete cleaning of the drains has been performed, fixing several years of flooding of the cellars (3 interventions across August 23-March 24). Further attention will be paid to the garden around the church in the next months.
St Walburge
Congregation is still growing slowly. Mass is said daily in the church, and a weekly dayadoration of the Blessed Sacrament, is observed. Four Catechism classes for various ages are currently being hold regularly. Guilds of parishioners are still in operation on monthly basis, and are hold in St Walburge’s Hall, which a significant growing number of people are attending.
There are currently 3 men in the House of discernment. The running costs of this house of formation are still very high.
A significant part of the roof of the church of St Walburge’s Church is being planned (sanctuary) for restoration, with works starting in the 1st quarter of 2025. This project is funded by a private donor for (£200,000.00), and we are now looking for another sources of funding, as the costs significantly increased from the 1st estimate. The architect is still working on drawings and quotes.
To provide more comfort to the parishioners, a heating pew system has been installed across Summer 23, and is now very appreciated, as the Church remains very cold during Winter. The sound system of the church was completely renovated (December 23).

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 MARCH 2024
English Martyrs:
The buildings are still used by our St Benedict’s Cultural Centre to support homeschooling families but will move the Cultural Centre to St Walburge’s premises (adjacent building) in April-May 2024.
Masses are celebrated daily as well as on Sundays. Congregation is slightly higher during winter, because of the heating, which is deficient in St Walburge’s.
As it is extremely difficult for the Canons in Preston to maintain 2 buildings of that size (St Walburge and English Martyrs) in the same town, Lancaster RC Diocese has been approached to have the lease of English Martyrs terminated before summer.
St Winefride’s:
The Shrine church congregation is growing slowly but surely, under the pastoral care of Canon Wiener, who deliver regular Faith talks for adults, and gives first Holy Communion preparations. He uses the church hall for home-schooling families’ gatherings once a month.
An investment has been made to replace Canon Tanner’s car, who kindly lend it to the apostolate since its beginning in 2018. A small BMW was purchased for the needs of the apostolate.
To improve the heating performances of the presbytery, secondary double-glazing windows were installed (February 24). Works is still going on and should be completed soon.
Lanherne:
Canon Smith is the Chaplain of the Carmelite Sisters in Lanherne: he celebrates daily Mass for them and have a faithful congregation on Sundays. He receives good financial support from the “Friends of Lanherne”, who provide his monthly wages and car insurance. The Diocese of Plymouth pays all Utility bills and taxes.
Torquay
Canon Tanner was living in a flat by the church of Holy Angels in Torquay, which rent was paid by Plymouth Diocese. In September 2023, the presbytery was finally available for Canon Tanner to move in. Mass is celebrated every day at Holy Angels, with regular catechism classes, and preparation for the reception of Sacraments.
Province:
The funds of the mew ICKSP Province are still used to pay wages to the clergy of the ICKSP in the UK: we send two letters per annum to our benefactors to keep them updated on the ICKSP missions in the UK and ask their spiritual and financial support.
Sisters Adorers (Preston):
We have now 5 Sisters in residence at Preston Convent: the Sisters look after the Shrine of English Martyrs where they part-time teach the children of the St Benedict Academy. Their presence is highly appreciated by the home-schooling families and their children. They have started a fundraising campaign to restore an former convent adjacent to the church of St.Walburge (Preston).
Fundraising
Any fund-raising which is required for the churches is discussed by trustees and is done in house with no 3rd party involvement as and when necessary.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 MARCH 2024
Financial review
Financial position
Incoming resources for the year amounted to £922,844 (2023 £1,529,914) and resources expended amounted to £624,623 (2023 £1,203,435), leaving a surplus for the year of £298,221 (2023 £326,479). Unrestricted funds carried forward amounted to £541,785 (2023 £535,921) and restricted funds amounted to £302,357 (2023 £10,000) therefore giving total funds carried forward of £844,142 (2023 £545,921). Cash at bank amounted to £839,161 (2023 £272,461).
The Charity's unrestricted free reserves amounted to £503,303 (2023 £494,325).
Reserves policy
The trustees aim is to maintain reserves at a level of at least three months net running costs. This has been met in the current year.
Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the board of trustees has a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason it continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the Statement of Accounting Policies.
Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. Health and safety manager has been appointed and reports to trustees. All DBS checks are completed by safeguarding representative when required. Before ownership is undertaken of a new church, a risk assessment is done by an independent body and reported back to trustees. The Church has a weekly newsletter with principles names and contact numbers for any issues or concerns that might arise. The rise in inflation and cost of living could impact on ability to fund raise for projects and repairs to the churches. The Government and lottery funds decision to restrict grants to churches for large repairs could have an impact in the future.
Plans for the future
Plans for the future comprise a new mission in Liverpool Diocese in Wigan to commence on September 2024 after a trial period of 6 months. St Mary’s church ad presbytery to be taken over under a long lease period. Restoration of the old convent buildings of St Walburge’s church in Preston.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 MARCH 2024
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
ICKSP is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 46 Hamilton Square, Birkenhead, Wirral, Merseyside, CH41 5AR.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charity's Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective 1 January 2019). The Charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Incoming resources
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
1.5 Resources expended
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Plant and equipment 20% straight line Computers 20% straight line Motor vehicles 20% straight line

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 MARCH 2024
1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
1.7 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the Charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
1.8 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
1.9 Financial instruments
The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Charity's balance sheet when the Charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the Charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
