It became clear earty in the year that a second moming service would be needod al some point. It was decided that this change should not occur until 2024 and so was planned for in the second half of 2023. After removing the tsrgeting of the 8vening service towards youth and students at the end of 2022, we hav8 S88n this s8rvice grow with representation from a wde range of age groups each week. However. the evening safWC8 is still favoured by the older youth and studènts within our congregation. In 2023, we saw a great increase in the number of individuals wanting to get baptised, which wa8 a true highlight of the year. Across the year 15 adUs, 4 youth, 4 children and 6 infants we baptlsed.

THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF THE ECCLESIATICAL PARISH OF BRIGHTON, ST PETER PCC MEMBERS ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 Youth Yolrth at St Peter's has been so blessed this year. As a team we have gone through a lol of changes, but God has been very kind. We have had an increase on youth attending on Fridays, seeing around 4&55 young people each week. Whilst these numbers have been amaang, il has been the growih in faith and leadership that we have seen in the young people which has been the best thing that has happened this year. We have seen more young people beginning to step up in leading worship on our Friday sessions and also start pr8aching, including preaching al a Sunday servicè. In February, we had 75 young people from across the Family of Church8s attend our annual Youth Weekend Away. This was such an amazing lime of worshipping God and dra¥Mng closer togelheT as a church community. One of the best parts of the weekend away 15 Watching youth from dtfferént churches create new friendship8 With one another. In 2023, we decided lo launch Youth village at Focus, which wgs a carnping area for all tho youth from across the Family of Churches whose parents were not attending. We brought 40 young people, without their parents, under the care of the youth leaders. Being able to create opportunities for the young people lo meet and encounter God for the weekend was such a blessing, One of the boys we brought had never been to a Christian festival or event before, and his family doesn't come to church. We got to watch him spend the weekend worshipping and enlhusiaslically attending Bibla studies. Wh8n asked what his highlight was he said that the worship was incredible and he still has a Focus youth worship playlist that he regularly listens to. There was also an option youth Bible In One Year study each day at Focus. The yOLrth leaders offered to attend if anyone wanted lo go. Each moming we had around 20 young people attend this session to spend more time readir¢g their Bibles and hearing about the word ofGod. To finish the yeaT off we had a leader and one of our own youth run a lemi of Alpha. We had 6 gue51s join for the duration of the course. one of which has re-founded his faith and begun to regularly join on Sundays and attend Youth on Fridays. Studgnts In February, we took 69 students plus team on annual Student Weèkend Away. In June, Hannah Milne succeeded James Bailey and Holly Ro& as Student Pastor. By this time, the academic year had come lo an end. In September, wewelcomed over100 students to our Pub Quyz al the start ofthe new academic year and began meeting for Student Central every other Tuesday night. This is a time to gather for dinner, worship, input, and ministry wth around 70 to 80 students attending each evening. We welcomed guest speakers from across Brighton and the county to input irbto the lives of the students. Students also joined the Discipleship Stream, an opportunity for them to dig deeper into the Bible and develop their faith in a small group, discursive context, wth mernbers of the wider church family involved too. Lunch at the Lukes,, a fortnighlly Sunday lunch at Jodi and Stav8 Luke's hous8, has b88n hugely successful, seeing up to 40 students filling the house for homerycooked lunch and a chance to relax and build community, as well es spend time talking through life with Jodl and Steve.

THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF THE ECCLESIATICAL PARISH OF BRIGHTON. ST PETER PCC MEMBERS ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 Groups One of the key ways Ihal we aim for people to be fully integrated into the life of St Pelerfs is to join a mid-weèk discipleshiplhome group. As with lasl year, we have had a number of groups who have slopped meeting for a variety of reasons (including more groups starting al the Family of Churches plants and people mowng to join those churches). Howevar, those groups that are still meeting a firing on all cylinders wlh people often remarking Ihal they feel loved and cared fDrf', and'pastored and kn¢)wn" by their Group leaders. The content for Groups continues lo be provided by Dar¢ and Kate Millesl with de&p4ives into the scriptures for that week's sennon passage, providing opporturtilies for people to grow in their biblical literacy, forge deewr friondships with others as w811 as spurring one another one in our Corporate disupleship jDumey. Lal&r in 2023. we also introducod the Disciplèship Stream- a venture whlch we hoped would bring together existing home groups, students and those who cannot access a home group for whatever reason. The first term had 4 of our existing groups take part and also led lo th& creation of two new groups. OUT hope going forward is that Dlscipleship Stream will be a Gioups 'incubaloV- allowing us to replicate new groklps and Set Ihern up lo thrivè for the long haul.

Envlronment & Su$tsinablllty Since achieving our Bronze Eco Church award in 2022, a scheme to help churches réduce their carbon footprint and care for God's creatlon. we have set our sights on achieving the Silv8r award. We worked on this across 2023 and although we haven't managed to fully reach the award yet. we have made strides to do so. The land and creation care portion of the award has seen parucular gains with the introduction of the beehive on the roof, helping to pollinal8 the flowers in the local area. Additionally, we ran several gardening groups on Saturday momings to plant flowers and plants around the church. Since 2021, the church has bgen IrackSng ils carbon foolprinl as a way to highlight areas that need impromng and ways to reduce our emissions. Natural gas, used for our heating sysl8m, is our primary source of emissions, wth 66% of ourtolal emissions coming from this source. In 2023, we managed to secure a great reduction in emissions, partially due to replacing two circulation pumps and partially due to better management of the heating system in general.

THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF THE ECCLESIATICAL PARISH OF BRIGHTON. ST PETER PCC MEMBERS ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 staff 2023 saw signfficant changes in regard to our staff for which we went through a large restructuring and reorganisalion. During the first half ol thè year a number of staff were unfortunately made redundant. In total, approximately 16 8tsff erther finished their contract or were made redundant. There was a myriad of reasons for this, though largely due lo available finances and the level of suslainability of being able to continue at that levèl of operation. Our HR consultant Naomi Cane from Spe¢lrum HR was engaged throughout the process and we owe much gratitude to her for her advice and consultation. Although challenging and at times, painful, the broad Sense was that il was a well-handled process with several staff involved, leading the consultation period ar loumeying wth each member of staff, whether they eventually left the organisalion orfor those who stayed on. By summer, the last of the redundancies look place, and so from September, with a slimmed down staff profile, wè began lo reorganise and blI a team that was abl8 lo sustain and deliver the daily operation of advancing the kingdom of God in Brigmon and Hove. This started wlth a staff away day at Sl Leonard's where we were abl& lo galhei again. lake stock and set a new ours& and essenb"ally, workout how we were to continue in the direction of a new model of reduced staffing level and more lay-led ministries, especially in roles such as Alpha, Kids, Production and Sunday and Events cgordinators where those roles wèren't replaeed. Strateglc Development Fund The Strategic Development Fund ISDFI project in partnership wth the Diocese of Chichester and funded by th8 c&ntral Church of England continued into ils third year (started in 2021 and runs until 20261. Sl Peter's is the lead chUb for the Family of Churches gnd continues lo work with the Diocese on the project wlh two church plants already having taken place, St Richard's & Sl Leonard's, seeing real growth and success. 2023 was planned lo launch All Saints Palcham St Andrew's Moulsectsomb, though both have had setbacks for dlffering reasons aro planning to relaunch in 2024. For Sl Peterfs, the Discipleship Stream and Youth Outreach are the two active projects that have developed over the year and bornfj real fruit wth grovrth seen in both arèas. Youth Outreach was able lo strengthen its partnership with schools across the city and il's in this area where we're really seeing God al work which is particularly exciting. The once-per.month All-ln on a Ftiday at Sl Peters is also a significant piece of this outreach plan where we're seeing those who havè perhaps discovered a church In their local area, through a youth café drop in, for examle, eventually coming to a FNday night at St Peler's. We continue lo receive funding for a couple of SDF related roles Ihough from 2024 these roles wll start to be funded by Sl Peler's, which was aayS the original intention and our commitment to thè project. A sustainability plan is being implemented over the next couple of years.

However, the primary respon81blllty for the prevention arKI detecti of fraud rests with both those charged with gov8Tnanc8 of the en and its management. 0 approach was a5 follow8: We id8ntifi8d areas of laws and regulations that could rea80nab5y be exp8Ctéd to have a material effect on the financial statements from our general Sector experience, and through discu55i9n with the trustees and other management las required by audits.ng standards}. and discussed wlh the Iru5tees and other management th8 poIici8s and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulab'ons (see below).. We identffied the followng areas as th)se most likely to have such an effect.. health and safety- General Dats Protection Regulation IGDPR),. fraud-, bribery and corruption, and employment law. Audrting standards limit the required audit procedures to identify non4ompliance with these laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees and other management and inspection of regulatory and 18gal correspondence, rf any. The identified actual or suspactad non-compliance wgs not sufficiendy significant to our audit to re5uIi in our response being identified as a key audit matter. We considered the legal and regulatory frameworks direcyy ?pplicable to the financial statements reporting framework IFRS 102 and th8 and Charities Act 2011) and the relevant tsx compliance regulations in Ihe We considered the nature of tho chariws operations, the ¢ontrol environment and financial p8rformanc8. We communicated identified 18ws and r8gulations throughout our te8m and remained alert to any indications of non-complian throughout the audit., Wè consSdered the procedures and controls that the charity has established to address risks identrfied, or that otherwise prevent. doter and detect fraud,. and how senior management monitors those programmes and control8. Based on this understsnrfing we dèslgnèd our audlt [CedureS to identify non-compliance with such laws at)d regulations. Where the risk was considered lo be higher. we perfomied audit procedures to athress each identtfied fraud risk. These procedures included.. testing manval joumals,. Temewing the finarKlal statement disclosures arsd testing to supporting documentation- perforniing analytical procedures.. and enquiring of manageTllent, and were designed lo providè reasonable assurance that the financial Statemenls were free from fraud or eOr. Owing to the Inherent limitation5 of an audit. there 15 ar) unavoidable risk Ihat we may not hav8 detected some material misslalemenls in thefin8ncial statements, even though we have prowrly planned and rf0mled our audit in accDrdanc8 with auditing standards. For example. the further removed non-compliancewith laws and regulations liffegularilies) is from the events and transactions refieclFd in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures raquired by auditing standards would identity it. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error. as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, colluslon. omission or misrepresenlalion. We ar8 not responsible for preventing non<ompliance and cannol be expected to detect non- compliance with all laws and regulations. 15
