The Parochial Church Council is a Registered Charity No. 1150077 with the Charity
Commission. This report for the year ended 31 st December 2025 complies with the current
statutory requirements.
Principal Activities and Governing Documents
The principal activty in the year under review was that of a Parochial Church Council to
Church of England Parish Church. The Church of England and its parishes ar8 exempted
charities" The PCC (Powers) Measure 1956 ststes that The Parochial Church Council
(henceforth °PCC°) has the responsibility of co-operating with the vI￿r (Rev Canon Martin
Court). in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish. the whole mission of the Church.. pastoral,
evangelistlc, social and ecumenical. The PCC is also responsible for the church hall situated
on the church site.
Our congregation and electoral foll lessened over the period of COVID and our necessary
move to worship in our hall complex but 2025 has seen us re*nter our church building with
immediate effect in growing attendees at our sep4ices. Our Christmas seNices were, once
again. very well attended and we welcomed our local Primary School in with parents for their
Chrisbnas Carol services. Our regular seNices are listed below.
Objectives and Activities
St. Chad's Church is part of the Church of England situated in the diocese of Chelmsford. It Is
located in the London Borough of Barking & Dagenham (LBBD) and as such, falls within the
poorest London borough. St. Chad's seeks to be a beacon of Christ's light in a very diverse
and multi-religious town. with its ministries guided by the needs of our community outlined in
the LBBD Joint Local Health & Wellbeing Strategy 202>2028. That document highlights the
poverty in our area, poor lrfestyle Choi￿$. poor diet and heatth and low lrfe expectancy
amongst others. We are also aware of the significant parental needs in our town,
We have a parish consisting of about 22.000 people in a little over a square mile. but in
practice se￿e a much greater area than that. We do all that you would expect a church to do
primarily enabling people lo live out lives of faith through worship, prayer, scripture and the
liturgical tenets of the Church of England.
To that end the PCC maintain the fabric of the church as well as ensuring it is fit for purpose
in the 21$1 century. We are currenty coming to the completion of a £1.3m building project
which has..
Made th8 building watertight and ￿furbIShed its stone works.
Made the church a more fiexible space by removing its pews to 8nabl8 greater
community use.
Update its heating, lighting and A.V. facilities to make it a felevant space today.
•% Constructed new sPa￿S for a vestry and Lady Chapel out of redundant or dilapidaled
spa¢es.

+ Built a new 'Coffee Shop. annexe that will seat 60 people at the west end of the church
with its own kitchenette to grow our work with the community.
We have always seen ourselves very much as a communtty focused church. To that end, we
run a variety of support ministries listed in detail below which, including the support we
offered through our Mum's and Tors (but not including any fonn of 'Church Service,) w8 have
an average weekly attendance of".
46 families with a further 16 at our monthly Craft Morning
84 eklerly people
181 Children and young people.
30 Recoverlng drug and alcohol addicts
Our Church building, prior to our current building works. was Inflexib￿ and too cold to use for
any activities during the week so all of our actrvities take place in our hall complex. Our ethos
for the use of our premises across the week and through the activities listed is that we
welcome people of all faiths or none. Whilst some of our activities, Craft Momings for
example, are overtly Christian (and yet still attended by families from a variety of faiths and
none), many of our actprfities. through which we are simpty seeking to provide intervention8 to
enable people to thrive, have no religious input. Our aim is to offer holistic support that
contributes to peop￿,$ mental, emotional and physical wellbeing.
What we do
St. Chad's Church is the 'Town's' church and our main role is the proclamation of the gospel
and the furthering of the tenets of the Church of England. We believe that includes living out
the heart of Jesus and loving people in non-judgemental and supportive ways. We seek to do
a few things, but do them well, and those ministries that we do, relate directly to the needs
we see in our neighbourhood.
Christian Activities:
> Sunday Services: We hold two Sunday morning service5 each week other than
Christrnas Day when we gather as a whole church. Our 0900 service follows the Book
of Common Prayer (BCP). a liturgically led Servi￿ with robed clergy and a Choir. Our
1045 Servi￿ is more family orientated with a worship band and children's activities at
all but the first seNice of the month which is an AIIAge senrfice.
> Mid-week Communion.. Either a BCP or Common Worship said servi￿.
> We run 'Craft Momings, for families (It is our fomi of 'Messy Church. 21 families at
our lasl session and a 'Light Party, for families at Halloween (which had 39 families
attending this year). These are overtly'christian, in ethos to which we get people of all
faiths and none coming - aimed at 5- 11yrs. Many of Ihe parents stay with their
children and the sessions really are 'good family, limes. These are run by volunteers.

> Care Home Services: We hold short services at local care homes wtih hymns, a
reading. short talk and prayers.
> Men's Breakfast.. Led by volunteers, we hokl a monthly breakfast for any man who
wishes to come. It involves a bible reading and talk.
> Festival Courses.. We lead festival courses such as Lent orAdvent bible studies.
> Home Groups: We host several Home Groups. pastoral bible studies where people
can get to know each other and God in a relaxed 'Home' environment.
> Restored LNes: We host and lead the Holy Trinty Brompton (HTB) drvorce recovery
Course.
Alpha= On completion of our buildings work we will reinstate our annual Alpha Course.
Outside of Christian services we undertake the following outreach ministries across
weekdays..
Coffee Shop (sepling between 18 and 26 people each Tuesday curtailed by space).
This is a place of relationship building as well as offering nulritious meals at affordable
prices. This is our handshake and enables us to get to know regular customers.
Customers are invited to ministries we offer on site or they can be signposted to other
help locally when that is needed. Our new annexe will enable us to open 4 days a
week and treble our capacty.
Sparkles, an under 1 year old ministry for struggling parents (typically four or five
families at a time, usualty referred to us by the borough). This is relaxed tlme for
parents headed up by a retired child speech therapist and a retired NHS Nursing
Manager both of whom are volunteers.
St Chads pre school. a non- profit-making outreach which is one of our main ministries
to the community, was awarded Outstanding by Ofsted in September 2025. We
continue to work closety with Barking and Dagenham Earty YearsAdvisory Team. We
currently have 7 members of staff - 1 Manager- Kath Childs and 1 Deputy
managerlSENCo- Sian Cox. We currentty have 35 funded Children on our register- 9
x 2yr olds 121 x 3yr olds and 5 x 4yr olds. Every 2-year-olds receives £8.92 per hour
per session of funding and £5.96 per hour per session for each 314-year-olds. Talia
Karlettis continues to support 6 children in our setting who have SEN (Special
educational needs) Each child receives additional funding (Top up) for one hour per
session. This is a one off annual payment of either- 30 hours per week- enhanced
£4,680 or targeted £5,850 or 15hours per week- enhanced £2,340 or tsrgeted £2,925.
4 children receive DAF {DisabiltyAccess Fund) which is a one of payment annually of
£910 We also have 16 chiklren who get EYPP (Early Years Pupil Premium) which is

termly basis payment were each chilj receives an extra £1.00 per hour that they
attend. Sian recentty complete her Level 3 SENCO training. Talia should be completing
her Level 3 Early years practitioner training at the end of March 2026. We continue to
support families in many ways such as directing them to local food banks, directing
them to the local SEND offer and referring families to Early Help and helping families
to fill out fom)s such as Disabilty Living Allowan￿ claims.
Mature Companions Club (MCC ) is our other main ministry to the local community-
for over 50 year olds which does subsidised lunches (simply to cover the cost of food -
until recently it was run on a donation basis) and aciivities three times a month with an
average attendance of 25 people per session but curtailed by space- there were 38
people who came to our cream tea (held outside) and over 53 at our Christmas Lunch
(which we were able to hold in our main hall.) This is a plaGe for relationship building,
peer support, sign-postin9 and building a sense ofwellbeing. The activities we offer
range from volunteer singers coming in to playing bingo or doing craft activities. It is
run solely by volunteers and is headed up by ourAssociate Minister. Again we hope to
move this into our newty refurbished church space with its own kitchenette and at least
double its capacty.
Mum's and Tot's moming which seNed an average of 15 families a week. This was
held in a nearby church because of our lack of space - but was closed this Christmas
because of a lack of volunteers willing to 'Lead' the ministry-we are hoping to re-
establish this group in our newty refurbished church once our building works are
completed.
We partner wlth Age UK and host 'ChairYoga' once a week and 'Chair Tai Chi, once a
week (we attract about 25 people to each session. Age UK have recently asked for a
further weekday to be made available to them in 2026 to begin a new cla55. These
numbers were limited by space but we have now been able to move the sessions into
the refurbished church space and the number of attendees is growing.) The session
facilitators are funded by LBBD and we do not charge for the space they use.
We also offer space for wellness activities such as Piktes (8 people per session
curtailed by space), Karate (up to 40 children and adults) and a Table Tennis club
(about 8 people}. Physical activity is a great need in Barking & Dagenham and we
seek to provide rt in many forms. These spaces are usually hired out.
We host the local Girl Guide and Ranger Groups (which has 16 Rangers and 15 girl
guides on their books) with space offered on a donats'on basis. These groups are run
by volunteers and help young people build self-confidence and setf-worth as well as
teaching lrfe skills.

We run a Youth Club on Monday evenings wtth a growing number of 12 young people
attending. These are 'open' sessions with no explicit Christian teaching. We offer fun
and games and also provide a free'meal, at the end of each session. We do
fundraising activiknes to enable us to take the youth out on trips but also partner with
'Stand by Me, a local chartty who run 'February on the ftoor., a homeless awareness
event. Last year our youth raised £775 for the homeless in the UK. The youth club is
safe space for youngsters to come and relax. It also gives us an opportunity to speak
into some of the situations they face. All staff are volunteers. We have successfully
applied for National Church SMMIB funding to begin an after-school club and for
greater youth provision including a youth group on a Sunday morning. This will also
encompass youth mentoring and leadership training.
We provide space for our local C.C. Anonymous group (befvieen 20 and 35 people
each week).again run on a donation basis. This is a strong group of people suffering
from addiction to drugs andlor alcohol. It is a support group in which they each hold
each other in accountabilty and provides valuable support for them as they navigate
their lives out of addiction.
The police hold their'Neighbourhood Watch, meetings in our hall each month.
Members of the public can hire our spaces for private fvnctions such as life event
celebratlons.

Committees
The PCC has given time to extend and develop the sub-committees, in order to involve more
people, including both PCC members and other church members, to increase resilien￿ and
improve succession. In this way we are less dependent on particular individuals.
The followng sub-committees exist to assist the PCC:
Senior Leadership Team: This team is both an accountability team for the incumbent but also
a sounding board for the leader where strategic issues have time to be thought through. The
team has no legal power but is instrumental in helping the incumbent to assess and discern
where certain aspectslministriesllogistics of the church are and help to plan towards the
collective vision of the church. Members of the team bring experience of Banking,
Administration. and H.R. managemenl. This team consists of.. Martin Court (Senior Leader),
Christine Harding (Associate Minister), Julie Court, Bob Crowther (Lay Vice Chair of the PCC),
and Rosanne Baptiste. Due to personal re-location, Bob Crovrther stepped down from this
committee al the end of December 2025.
Standing Committee.. This is the only commtttee required by law. It has the power to transact
the business of the PCC between its meetings, subject to any directions given by the Council.
This group consists Martin Court (Chair). Christine Hardin9 (Associate Minister) Bob Crowlher
Ivice Chair) Julie Court, R05anne 8aptiste. Bob Crowther stepped down form this committee
at the end of December 2025.
Leadership Team.. This comprises the people who head up our ministries and activities in the
church and those who hold senior leadership posts. 11 meets to discuss church matters and
plan towards the futu￿. It is also a meeting for collective learning and the growth in our
leadership skills. People on this team include.. Martin Court (Senior Leader), Julie Court
(Sunday School and Craft Morning Lead), Rosanne Baptiste {H.R. Manager), Christine Harding
{Associate Minister), Deli Adesida (Curate) Bob Crowther (Lay Vice Chair of PCC- Stepped

secretary), Graham Wallis (Head of Tech Team), Christine Brown (Worship Leader), Kath

Deanery Synod.. Three members of the church sit on the deanery synod - Lucinda Crowther
(Stepped down in December 2025 due to relocation) . Paul Quelch, Duncan Simonds and
Florence Mocka, and they also attended PCC meetings. This provides the PCC with an
important link be￿een the parish and the widerstrudures of the church. Our incumbenl, Marlin
Courl, is also the Area Dean and Chair of the Deanery Synod.
The Electoral Roll.. Pauline Loomes is our Electoral Roll Officer. At the beginning of the year
the electoral roll stood at 130.

Limiting Fadors
St. Chad's Church is ￿nStraIned in the ministy activty it seeks to achieve by our buildings.
We have limited space to provide for the things we know we coukl realistically achieve from
our vision. Our buildings are aging and ill-equipped for the twenty-first century and we are
currently commÉtted to a large-scale ￿n0vatiOn and re-building of our available spaces (Which
is already Unde￿ay) which will help us realise our potential to be much more of a community
centre for Chadwell Heath. These plans are coming to fruition and we fully expeGt the building
works for the church and the new annexe to be completed by the summer of 2026.
This has impacted our regular attendees too. We have seen a reduction in attendance at the
start ofthe year until we moved back into the church building on a pemianent basis. Since then
our numbers are steadily growing again refiected in our increased giving.
Volunteers
We would like to thank all the volunteers who work so hard to make our ¢hur¢h the lively and
vibrant community it is. This would include {but is not an exhaustive list) people who help with
our church services (providing flowers, polishing the vessels. cleaning altar cloths etcl. those
who help with our jumble sales and the Christmas market. those who assist with the On￿oing
running, Maintenan￿ and refurbishment of our properties, and those who assistwith the many
voluntary roles that provide support in our community, including the St Chad's coffee shop (the
Sunshine Café) and the Mature Companions Club.
Financial revlew
The PCC is responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable
accuracy at any time the financial position of the church, and which ensure that the financial
statements comply wrth the Charities Act 1993 and the regulations issued in 1995 and 2000,
revised in 2005. This report has been produced according to guidan￿ dated 2006 Issued by
the Archbishop's Council of the Church of England. The PCC is responsible for safeguarding
the assets of the Church and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and
detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Taxation Status.. The PCC is an exempt charity for taxation purposés as a church defined as a
place of worship under the Pla￿ of Worship Act 1855.
The financial activrties of the PCC are set out in the attached financial statements, but key
ilems of note are..
The continued use of the Parish Giving Scheme has benefitted the church with planned
giving from within church family members increasing from £76,626 to £82,247, an increase of
£5.621.

Total voluntary re￿iptS including Gtft Aid was £189,832 albeit £54,390 was received from
one off grants and £12,624 from non gift aid donations. Even taking these out of the equation
this equalled £122,818 against £115.799 last year
With additional income from jumble sales, Xmas market. hall lettings, coffee shop and bank
interest received increased our total income (excluding Pre School) to £148,239
Income from the Pre School was £9,000 higher than 2024. Wrth reduced expenditure they
generated approximate surplus of £12.000. However, this is distorted as a large balancing
payment from the local 8orou9h was received late in the year.
In tems of outgoings, we met our Parish Share of £66,776 in full. To put this into perspective
our income from planned giving, by standing order and envelope pledges was £82,247. Our
core costs of Parish Share and salaries amounted lo £102,435 and so we are heavily reliant
on °otherf income to support our ministry. administration. utilty and other costs
We received grants from Garfield Weston, the 8enefact Trust and London over the Border
totalling £54,000 to be utilised in completing the annexe but the impact of rising costs means
we now expect the annexe to be completed by mid-2026.
It is essential that our communrty cafe which is anticipated to open 4 days per week plus the
possible hiring of the annexe space to communtylbusiness groups will become an additional
source of income for St Chads going foThvard
Reserves policy
It is the PCC'S objective to set aside funds equating to 3 months of unrestricted expenditure
which would amount £37,466 and would be held to smooth out flLtctuations in cash flow and
to meet emergencies. However, despite increases in giving and gift aid received we are
faced with higher costs such as utilty costs, administrative costs, and increased salary costs
due to the higher minimum wage rate and employers. national insurance, which has meant it
has not been possible to meet this objective.
We Continue to be heavily reliant on fund raising aclivities and donations to make ends meet.
With the completion of the annexe in mid 2026 we hope to be able to meet review our
reserves objectives in late 2026.
