Vale of Stour Methodist Circuit Trustees, Annual Report Introduction The members of the Vale of Stour Methodist Cir￿lt meeting present the accounts and Trustees, Annual Report for the year to 31 August 2024. Brief financial review of the year Income trends Circuit income is primarily drawn from the assessment paid by the circuit churches. Expenditure trends Stipend expenditure has increa*d each financial year in line wrth conference approved increases. 30¢/0 of expenditu￿ is the Circuit contribution to the District and Connexion, of which a significant part is used to fiJnd the work of the wider Methodist Church. Fund balances As at 31 August 2024 the net current assets of the Circuit were £824,138 giving it in ex￿SS of 1 year cover for expenditure. (see Reserves Policy) There is an amount of £1,009.90 held in a Youth Account and administered by Trustees. This fund will be transferred to the Circuit's Funds in the financial year 2024125 and will be ring-fen￿d for Youth Work within the Vale of Stour Circuit. Churches and Manses No manses were disposed of during the year- the former Brier￿y Hill manse continues to be used in support of The BrierEey Hill Project. The manses at Tirnbertree and Birch coppi￿ have been retained and are currently generating rental income for the Circuit. Activlties and Outcomes 2023124 Some four years on from the unprecedented Covid-19 pandemic, life has retumed to 'business as usual, for the Circuit's churches, albeit they are still feeling the lingering effects of decreases in worshippers and income streams as a result (although we have seen some churches retum to pre-pandemic ￿velS of membership and attendance. Indeed. some churches have brought in new regular worshippers, members and regular hirers of their premises). Cost of Living pressures remain at the forefront of many, particularly as many churches see increased costs as fixed term energy contracts begin to expire and renewals are at signfficantly higher levels than previously. But support of immediate congregations and the wider communty remains at the hearts of church outreach.

The Circuit's 'Way Foward, programme has continued steadily during the year with many positive discussions as to what the future looks like for the 'clustered' churches. But there will also be difficult discussion to be had due to reducing resources, both financial and in tems of personnel- both at Circuit and individual church levels. Support for The Brierly Hill Project (BHP), who* mission is to provide targeted life support and mentoring for the people from the Brierley Hill area and wider Dudley Borough has continued through a re-purposing of the former Brierly Hill Man￿ as an operational base. Such a partnership serves to strengthen the Circuit's charitable role (through its churches) of acting as a resource provider for the Methodist Church in the local area. Plans for 2024125 Circuit financial plans for the coming year have been prepared on the basis of a reduced tWO-Minister Circuit, together with appropriate support from the Lay Team and Supernumeries. Accordingly. a gross operating budget of £331.736 has been assessed on the circurt churches. However, the Circuit has actively chosen to invest in two key lay roles from its reserrfes, meaning a net operab'ng budget of £286,101 has been approved. We remain alive to the lasting effects of the Covid-19 pandemic and the ￿st-of-[lvIng pressures facing the Circuits churches and congregations. The Circuit Leadership Team has openly encouraged individual churches to discuss their own future plans with the Circuit Leadership Team where they feel the impact of the pandemic has had significant impact on their wellbeing and spiritual life and such conversations continue as an integral part of the 'Way Fomard, programme. Churches have been asked to consider their current, and future, positions with a view to keeping Methodism alive and well in the area going forward (including likely reductions in ministerial cover to just two ministers by the summer of 2024). Basis of preparation and legal framework The Charity's annual report and accounts for the year ended 31 August 2024 have been prepared in accordan￿ with the CharttEs Act 2011 and the Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities p￿paring their accounts in accordan￿ with the Financial Reporting Standard in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS) 102.

Formal Covid-19 risk assessments are no longer required in accordance with Govemment guidelines but churches remain mindful of good practi￿ regarding ventilated spa￿S and good personal hygiene. There is a regular annual prO￿sS review undertaken and recorded. Income and Expenditure is monitored in totsl and is compared with the approved annual budget on a monthly basis to detect trends as part of the risk management process to avoid unft)reseen calls on reserves. Safeguarding Every person has a value and dignity which comes d1￿CtlY from the creation of male and female in God's own image and likeness. Christians see this potential as fvlfilled by God's re-creation of us in Christ. Among other things this implies a duty to value all people as bearing the image of God and therefore to protect them from harm.

We will respond without delay to every complaint made which suggests that an adult, child or young person may have been harmed. cooperating with the poli￿ and local authority in any investigation. . We will seek to work with anyone who has suffered abuse, developing with them an appropriate ministy of informed pastoral care. We will seek to challenge any abuse of power. especially by anyone in a position of trust.

We will seek to offer pastoral care and support. including supervision and referral to the proper authonties, to any member of our church community known to have offended against a child, young person or vulnerable adult.
