REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES For the year ended 31 December 2021
Church Activities
Montgomery Hall
Our Community Hall continued to accommodate offices for River of Life Church and Local Welcome. From January 2021, the Lambeth GP Federations used the Montgomery Hall as a Covid 19 Vaccination Centre on a daily basis. Over 225,000 vaccinations were administered to local people, attracting national attention and acclaim.
After a few years of discussion within the PCC and the wider Church, the PCC agreed to continue discussions with the Diocese in seeking to agree a new development of the Montgomery Hall and the Vicarage site.
Charitable Activity
The PCC continued to be encouraged by the partnerships with Spear (Young adults being helped to be work-ready) and ODAAT (rehabilitation from addiction).
Churchyard
The PCC has continued to work with the Diocese and Lambeth Council to improve the Children’s playground in the Churchyard. The PCC continues a fruitful connection with City and Country farmers’ Market (CCFM) to host the weekly Farmers Market in the land owned by the Church. The PCC also hosts the daily Coffee stall, and 3 days a week the popular Bokit-la takeaway stall. Vauxhall One, also held a successful 4 day music festival in February 2021. All of which bring some welcome revenue, these activities have been beneficial in reducing anti-social behaviour in the Churchyard. A designated space by the Church office is also being gradually developed as a Memorial Garden.
Social Media
The Church YouTube channel continues to livestream the morning and evening Services, with content viewed over 37, 845 times since its launch on 18[th] March 2020.
Financial Review
The PCC Treasurer, Nicola Gurung was appointed in April 2021 taking over from outgoing Treasurer David Levitt. The Treasurer has been assisted by the Church administrator Liandra Odiasempa until her departure on maternity leave in July 2021 and has since been assisted by our relief replacement Hanna Boxall.
The Treasurer reports to the PCC formally in writing at every regular PCC meeting and reports are circulated to all PCC members whether in attendance or not.
The previous external reporting accountant, Linda Noel has now retired from practice and we thank her for her service over the years. This year we have commenced a new reporting relationship with Knox Cropper LLP a specialist Charity Sector auditor who we hope will assist us with the many challenges we face moving forward.
We have been extremely fortunate over the last year for the continued use of Montgomery Hall as a COVID Vaccination Centre the revenues from which have contributed significantly to PCC resources during the period. This has continued in the current year until April 2022.

PARISH CHURCH OF ST MARK KENNINGTON
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES For the year ended 31 December 2021
Montgomery Hall rentals have been the main contributor to this years increased revenues of £427,623, up from £198,769 in 2020. Whilst the increased revenues are welcome it has also brought increased costs on maintenance and repairs at the site. Additionally, we have also invested resources set aside for the Church Playground £20,000 and continue to maintain the PCC investment asset rental properties at Prima Road and improved the facilities at St Mark Church, investing some £17,000 on the Crypt toilet facilities. At the suggestion of Rev Coulson the PCC have also been able to increased their annual contribution this year to the Dioceses (Parish Support Fund) to £93,000 increased from £76,000 in 2020. In total expenditure for the year amounted to £360,506 up from the £224,236 expended in 2020.
In all this has provided the PCC with an annual surplus of £67,117 for the year up from the deficit in 2020 of £25,467.
Our full income and expenditure report for the period is set out in detail at page 10 and should be reviewed in conjunction with the detailed notes as referenced. Our full statement of financial position at 31[st] December 2021 is set out in the balance sheet report on page 11 and this should be reviewed in conjunction with the detailed notes as referenced.
Montgomery Hall
The PCC continue to explore the possibility of redevelopment of the PCC owned Montgomery Hall site in conjunction with the Diocese owned vicarage site. Several indicative bids from development partners indicate that a redevelopment could provide significant funds for the charitable use of the PCC. The PCC continue to consider how best to enter into this process while ensuring we maintain our existing Church Hall facilities and resources.
Financial Administration Upgrade
During the year the Treasurer has embarked on a process of improvement and updating of the financial administration function of the PCC engaging new accounting and reporting software and beginning the process of digitally storing the PCC financial and administrative records. We have also taken advice on the improvement of PCC governance practice in our financial management and administration and continue the process of implementation. The PCC continue to improve and update all of our practices to comply with ongoing statutory obligations in this regard.
Donations App
This upgrade process has also extended to the implementation of a new online donations app which allows parishioners to donate via mobile or online in a more modern and convenient way whilst dealing with HMRC and regulatory compliance automatically. The Treasurer and PCC recommend all parishioners and donors who can use “The Donations app” which can be found on the iphone or android app resource. Full details of the app and a download link are also available on the Church website at www.stmarkskennington.org/donate and in the entry hall at St Mark Church. Donors can also use the QR code.
Reserves Policy
It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at a level which equates to approximately six months unrestricted expenditure. This provides sufficient funds to cover management and administration and support costs and to respond to emergency applications for grants which arise from time to time. Unrestricted funds were maintained at this level throughout the year.

PARISH CHURCH OF ST MARK KENNINGTON
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF PARISH CHURCH OF ST MARK KENNINGTON FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
We have audited the financial statements of Parish Church of St Mark Kennington (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 December 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion, the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity’s affairs as at 31 December 2021 and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

PARISH CHURCH OF ST MARK KENNINGTON
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PARISH CHURCH OF ST MARK KENNINGTON FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
(Continued)
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees’ report; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
• the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement in the Trustees' Report, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

PARISH CHURCH OF ST MARK KENNINGTON
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PARISH CHURCH OF ST MARK KENNINGTON FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
(Continued)
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
-
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the charity and determined that the most significant are the Statement of Recommended Practice 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities' (SORP 2019), in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK (FRS 102) applicable to smaller entities.
-
We understood how the charity is complying with those frameworks via communication with those charged with governance, together with the review of the charity’s documented policies and procedures. The charity is required to comply with charity law and, based on our knowledge of its activities, we identified that the legal requirement to accurately account for restricted funds was of key significance.
-
The audit team, which is experienced in the audit of charities, considered the charity’s susceptibility to material misstatement and how fraud may occur. Our considerations included the risk of management override and allocation of costs to charitable activities and restricted funds.
-
Our approach was to check that the income from donations, rents and hire of property were properly identified and accurately disclosed, that expenditure complied with the control procedures and was appropriately charged. We also reviewed major journal adjustments along with unusual transactions and considered the identification and disclosure of related party transactions.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities . This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken, so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report or for the opinions we have formed.

PARISH CHURCH OF ST MARK KENNINGTON
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 31 December 2021
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS102, have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for investment properties which are included at their fair value. They have been prepared in accordance with applicable United Kingdom accounting standards, the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities' (SORP), in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK (FRS 102) applicable to smaller entities and the Charities Act 2011. The presentational currency of the financial statements is Pound Sterling (£).
The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern. In preparing the accounts, restatement was required in applying the accounting policies required by FRS 102 and the Charities SORP FRS 102.
Cash Flow
The financial statements do not include a cash flow statement because the charity, as a small reporting entity, is exempt from the requirement to prepare such a statement under the FRS102.
Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objects of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The cost of administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. Statutory grants which are given as contributions towards the Charity's core services are treated as unrestricted.
Incoming resources
Revenue grants are credited to incoming resources on the earlier date of when they are received or when they are receivable, unless they relate to a specific future period, in which case they are deferred. All other incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Investment Income is recognised on an accruals basis.
Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income or Gift Aid donations is recognised at the time the relevant income is receivable.
Other income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the Charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.
12
PARISH CHURCH OF ST MARK KENNINGTON
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 31 December 2021
Resources Expended
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been included under expense categories that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities. Support costs, including governance costs, which cannot be directly attributed to particular activities, have been apportioned proportionately to the direct staff costs allocated to the activities. Governance costs include the costs of servicing Trustees' meetings, audit and strategic planning.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it was incurred.
Value Added Tax
The Charity is not registered for VAT and accordingly, where applicable, all costs and expenditure incurred are inclusive of VAT.
Investment Properties
Investment property is valued at market value at the balance sheet date. The fair value of the properties is reviewed annually and adjusted based on the condition of those properties as assessed by trustees.
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
All assets costing more than £500 are capitalised.
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Furniture and equipment
4 years
Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
Financial Instruments
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
Pensions
The charity is part of a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
