Christchurch Ilkley

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2023

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The purpose of the Charity is to advance the Christian faith in the Area of Benefit in accordance with the principles and practices of the Participating Churches. In achieving its purposes, the Charity will engage in a range of activities, either on its own or with others, including (but not restricted to): a) the celebration of public worship; b) the teaching of the Christian faith; c) mission and evangelism; d) pastoral work, including visiting the sick and the bereaved; e) the provision of facilities with a Christian ethos for the local community, including (but not restricted to) the elderly, the young and other groups with special needs; and f) the support of other charities in the UK and overseas.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

These pages of accounts describe the spending of the monies given by our members and other money raised and spent by the charity in the year 2022/23

Christchurch as a charity exists to promote the Christian faith in the area of Ilkley. As Trustees we take our responsibilities seriously. Property is maintained, staff are paid, activities are carried out to fulfil our objectives and strategic thought given towards the ongoing work of the charity. These are all represented by these figures which continue to be the financial outworking of our vision: "Christ at the centre of the Church at the heart of the town".

Strategic direction and oversight by the Trustees developed during the year, with several new Trustees being appointed. An awayday with external facilitators helped give all Trustees a deeper understanding of their responsibilities, as well as a chance to engage in formulating future strategic direction. Mission strategy was developed using the LYCIG (Leading Your Church Into Growth) process, with two more leaders attending the LYCIG conference and a training session for house groups.

Public worship continues its post-pandemic development, with various forms of worship used on Sunday mornings, including experimenting with more informal café style services. Sunday morning worship is still available on-line, following the pattern during lockdown. Messy Church is very successfully on Sunday afternoons, with growing numbers, and SMILES serves a need across s wider area welcoming families with children with special needs. Several informal weekday evening events/services gave opportunities to engage with some of the uniformed organisations that use our building. The weekly ecumenical Pause for Thought service is hosted at Christchurch.

Childrens and Youth work has flourished with the full ending of covid restrictions. In addition to Messy Church and SMILES already mentioned above, the Monday toddlers group is attracting large numbers to two sessions, Youth Hangout provides an opportunity for teenage children to ‘hangout’, and our Children’s and Youth worker is also involved in supporting activities at other Churches in Ilkley and in the Circuit, as well as developing relationships with the Uniformed organisations that use our premises.

Pastoral work took place throughout the year, with the opportunity to offer home communion to people who are housebound or mobility restricted being much appreciated. Support to those going through significant life-changes, including bereavement, continued, with the addition of occasional lunches to bring some of the people supported in this way together. Much pastoral work takes place in the context of house groups, which also re-started basing studies around a book called “Tomorrow’s Christian”. Some house group members also engaged in pastoral training.

The Church remains fully committed to outreach and sharing the good news of the Christian faith with the people of Ilkley and the surrounding area. This included reviewing our activities and how they relate to the LYCIG structure noted above. Market Mission, when members greet people as part of the monthly Sunday local Food Market on The Grove, took place on two occasions, with many people spoken to, and some conversations developing. Five people were welcomed into membership during the year following a series of meetings.

An outward facing focus is a central to our mission and ministry, both within the local community and more widely. Working with Churches Together in Ilkley, a Warm Space was offered in our building in response to energy price

increases and cost of living pressures. This developed to include film afternoons, which were much appreciated, and the offer of food from the café in conjunction with the Ilkley Foodbank. We supported the strong community response to support refugees from the war in Ukraine providing space and refreshments for this group of 60 plus families to meet together. We are delighted to host and build relationships with the Wharfe Valley Pathways Group who bring together several well-being agencies/charities to run a conversation café in our lower-hall one day a week, on a drop-in or NHS referral basis. Giving overseas included funds raised for Commitment for Life, Christian Aid and the World Mission Fund (Methodist Women in Britain). The annual Jigsaw Festival was very successful, with many visitors from near and far, and raising substantial funds for a range of charities.

There was much celebration on the completion of the long-awaited redevelopment programme of the toilets, providing attractive, bright and, most importantly, fully accessible facilities. We were especially pleased that Geoff Halsall was able to do the official opening, having patiently waited a long time for the realisation of the project. This is a major step forward in updating the building and being able to offer a warm and inclusive welcome to all. Financially, around 80% of the costs were covered by grants from a range of sources. A major focus on Toilet Twinning was included in the opening event, and more that £1,100 was raised – more than enough to twin every toilet and tap in the new facility.

The café remains an important part of the inclusion and warm welcome that is integral to the mission and ministry of the church, and we are pleased that it has become increasingly busy through the year. In this and other areas there have of course been significant cost pressures, with high energy price, general inflation and payroll increases. These were more than offset in 2022-23 by a very generous Gift Day response, enabling a surplus to be achieved for the year. As a charity we are aware that a good financial position is an important enabler for us to achieve our aims and objectives.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

The Policy relates to the General Fund and includes the current account held at Barclays and Central Finance Board (CFB) deposit account. The Policy is to maintain general cash reserves equivalent to at least thirteen weeks average expenditure. The General Fund cash balances stood at £49,197 (PY £94,822) at the 31[st] March 2023. Thirteen weeks average expenditure would be equivalent to approximately £62,433 (PY £45,900) based on the 2023/24 budget.

Income and Expenditure

Overall income for the year was £499,816, significantly higher than in 2021/22 when income was £308,201. The increase was due in part due to grant income towards a toilet refurbishment project and also to generous congregational giving.

Overall expenditure was £465,364 compared with £329,181 in 2021/22 and £295,631 in 2020/21. The main reason for the difference related to resuming catering after Covid 19 and a toilet refurbishment project that was completed during the year.

The General Fund net movement of funds was an increase of £13,045 after transferring to it £25,980 from Designated Funds, including £5,708 to the Christchurch Café and £20,272 from unrestricted legacies. The Christchurch Café made a profit of £5,708 prior to transfers. If viewed together, the overall net movement of the Café and General Funds, excluding the impact of legacies/transfers, was an increase of approximately £12,000.

FUTURE PLANS

During the next year, we will build on the significant growth in mission and ministry set out in the report for the year 2022-23. At the same time, the progress made and the new opportunities available will bring new challenges, with the anticipated need to be more selective in deciding which new ideas to start; which current activities to sustain and develop; and, potentially, what things should come to an end. The Trustees will play an important role in making these decisions.

As an LEP, Christchurch is connected to the wider church through both the Methodist Church and URC. We have been developing links with both bodies and are part of wider discussions as they consider the future for mission in the Wharfe valley more widely. We are engaged in the thinking of the Methodist Circuit about possible re-organisation and are aware that we will have a change of Minister in summer of 2025.

In financial terms, the cost pressures from 2022-23 will carry forward into the current year, which will also see inflation and pay cost rises still above 6%. The year will be challenging financially, as measures are taken to increase income, improve the contribution from the café and control costs. The surplus from 2022-23 will provide support as we seek to build a more sustainable post-covid position. This will be supported by longer term financial planning, including a multiyear forecast, to supplement the annual budget, and develop a long-term maintenance plan to identify likely future major costs.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Christchurch Ilkley

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Christchurch Ilkley (the Trust) for the year ended 31 March 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

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.

Consecrated and beneficed property of any kind is excluded from the accounts by s.10 (2) (a) and (C) of the Charities Act 2011.

All assets (excluding consecrated and beneficed property) acquired since 6 April 2000 have been capitalised at cost and depreciated in the accounts over their anticipated useful economic life on a straight-line basis.

For assets acquired prior to 6 April 2000 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the accounts. The Trustees are of the opinion that these assets are not material to the financial statements.

All expenditure incurred in the year, on assets under £500, is written off to resources expended
