HOLY TRINITY CHURCH, UPPER TOOTING ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2022

Aim and purposes

Holy Trinity PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent in promoting the whole mission of the church in the parish, as well as caring for its buildings and finances.

The Parochial Church Council (PCC) is registered with the Charity Commission as Charity No. 1152212 and has prepared accounts in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102.

Objectives and activities

The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of our parish community at Holy Trinity. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament.

When planning our activities for the year, the PCC have considered the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. In particular, we try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our parish community through worship and prayer, pastoral care and mission and community involvement.

As part of this work it is important to maintain the fabric of the building.

Achievements and performance

The church is keen to offer a range of services over the course of the year that the community find both beneficial and spiritually fulfilling. For example Lent provides a quiet, intimate and reflective environment for worship whilst Easter services starting with the Dawn Service are joyful and uplifting. Being able to hold all the Christmas season services in person this year has been a great joy as has being able to return recently to sharing the Common Cup in communion.

The Church has an ‘open’ door policy and has been available for prayer and reflection every day. All were welcome to attend our regular services which were held in a socially distant format that has been eased over the year and has ended in February 2023. Worship continues to be live-streamed. There were 84 members on the church electoral roll at the 2022 APCM (2021 APCM: 84), of whom 34 were resident in the parish and 50 non-resident.

A rich calendar of social events, including the Christmas Fair, contributed towards the overall total of £8,985 given to other charities in 2022. It is the PCC’s policy to ensure that monies raised and given to good causes equates to at least 10% of general income from the congregation.

The parish magazine, which is produced monthly and is free of charge, keep parishioners informed of matters affecting the church and is on our website which is at www.holytrinityuppertooting.org.uk, and gives full details of all our activities. The website continues to provide details of worship and church activities and volunteer opportunities.

Our Outreach projects such as our weekly Carer and Baby Group (Trinity Tots), our volunteer-led Mental Health Group (the weekly Thursday Club) and the weekly Trinity Homeless Support Café, the homelessness outreach project, were all active during 2022. In addition a cost of living outreach project (Winter Welcome) opened in December and work is planned on a Children’s Corner in church.

We benefit from the use of the Church Halls and other facilities, which were administered by the Benefice Administrator, Zorah Baig. 2022 saw an increase in bookings as the effects of COVID diminished.

Finally, we were delighted to emerge from the interregnum and welcome the Revd Angela Rayner as our new Vicar as from April 2022.

Financial Review

Overall funds stood at £485,312 at the end of the year up from £429,473 the previous year. Of this £113,744 (2021: £108,131) was spent providing Christian ministry.

Unrestricted funds in 2022 as per the Statement of Financial Activities showed a loss for the year of £133 (2021: loss £2,793).

This included the income arising on the Glenburnie Road property of £31,238 (2021: £27,424) which, net of expenses of £5,277, contributed £25,961 to unrestricted funds (see note 10(b)). After making provision for the maintenance of the property itself, the balance of this income was transferred to the General Building Fund.

Financial Review (continued)

The unrestricted funds also include the church’s General Fund which showed a deficit for the year of £26,094 (2021: £26,466) (see note 10(a)). This deficit had been budgeted for and was met from the surplus on the Halls Account. Planned giving through envelopes and standing orders showed a 2.2% increase on the 2021 amount (2021: 0.7% fall during the year). Overall giving including tax recovery was 5.3% above the 2021 total. These results were excellent and show recovery after coronavirus.

The PCC had decided just to round up their contribution to the diocese. The Parish Pledge was £54,000 (2021: £53,900). This largely provides for the stipends and housing of Southwark clergy

There was a surplus of £73,352 (2021: £49,222) on the Church Halls Fund (see note 11(a)), an excellent result showing the recovery from the impact of coronavirus in the hall bookings of which £26,094 (2021: £43,070) went to restore the General Fund and £47,258 (2021: £2,590) went to the General Building Fund. That Fund at the end of the year stood at £71,088 (2021: £24,763).

The Tower Project hasn’t yet finished with retention costs of £9k still to come. These will be met from the General Building Fund when snagging matters are resolved.

Fund-raising policy

The church’s approach to fund-raising is to carry this out in line with its Christian values. Any appeal is launched by the PCC and led by a member of the church designated by the PCC.

Fund-raising activities are discussed at PCC meetings so that we can monitor progress and manage key risks. We ensure those raising funds are properly briefed and know who they report to. We follow the law and are open and accountable about the monies raised. No complaints were received about the church’s fundraising activities during the year.

The church has a safeguarding policy to protect vulnerable individuals and other members of the public and a privacy policy displayed on the website and abides by these policies during the course of its fund-raising activities in order to prevent undue pressure on and unreasonable behaviour towards individuals.

Reserves policy

It is PCC policy to maintain a balance in the general fund which equates to at least three months general fund payments, roughly equivalent to £27,000, to cover calls on funds that may arise from time to time. The actual general reserves at December represented just under three month’s payments from the general fund.

Unrestricted, Designated and Restricted funds are held as outlined in Notes 10, 11 and 12 to the Accounts. Reserves are invested with the CBF Church of England Deposit Fund.

Structure governance and management

The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. All members of the congregation are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for PCC.

The PCC is responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the parish including deciding on how the funds of the PCC are to be spent.

The full PCC met 8 times during the year.

The Ministry Group structure, which is due to be reviewed, operated through three groups. Growing Together in Christ (pastoral care and social events) was led by Jean Cooper. The other two groups ie Growing Up into God (learning, worship and liturgy) and Growing Out into the Community (mission and community involvement) were in abeyance.

The Churchwardens are members of the Buildings Committee. Financial matters are dealt with by the Treasurer with occasional and informal advice given when requested. Appeals are dealt with by the PCC as and when necessary. In addition, ministry group leaders meet with the Churchwardens, the licensed Clergy and the Readers to form the Operations Team.

HOLY TRINITY, UPPER TOOTING INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF HOLY TRINITY, UPPER TOOTING

I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2022, which are set out on pages 6 to 18.

RESPONSIBILITIES AND BASIS OF REPORT

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

I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S STATEMENT

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the Charity has prepared the accounts in accordance with 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) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.

I understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no 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 Charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 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.

HOLY TRINITY CHURCH, UPPER TOOTING NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the accounts are as follows:

Basis of preparation of accounts

The accounts have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair’ view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

The PCC is a public benefit entity with the meaning of FRS102. The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for the valuation of investment assets, which are shown at market value. The accounts include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body, nor those that are informal gatherings of church members.

The accounts have been prepared in GBP and all amounts have been rounded to the nearest £.

Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis

During the year the church had net income of £55,839 (2021: net income of £39,581) and was building reserves back up during the year.

The church has been impacted by Covid-19. The PCC has continued with regular monitoring and reporting on the potential impact of Covid-19 on the church, and has been taking the appropriate action to mitigate as far as possible any immediate and ongoing financial and operational impact. The areas under review include the provision of worship, halls activities, the impact on cash flow, and the care and safety of church members in following Government regulations relating to the pandemic. As such, the PCC considers that all appropriate steps have been taken to date.

The members of the PCC are not aware of any circumstances which might affect the going concern status of the church in the foreseeable future.

For this reason, the members of the PCC are of the opinion that the church can be considered a going concern for the foreseeable future, this being a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the balance sheet.

Funds

Unrestricted funds are funds set aside by the PCC that are not subject to any restrictions regarding their use and are available for application on the general purposes of the PCC.

Designated funds are general funds set aside for a particular purpose by the PCC. They are also unrestricted.

Restricted funds represent (a) income from bequests which may be expended only on those restricted objects provided in the terms of the bequest, and (b) donations or grants received for a specific object or invited by the PCC for a specific object. The funds may only be expended on the specific object for which they were given. Any balance remaining unspent at the end of the year must be carried forward as a balance on that fund.

Page 8

HOLY TRINITY CHURCH, UPPER TOOTING NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (ctd) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (ctd)

Income and endowments

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the PCC has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Donations and capital sources

Collections are recognised when received by or on behalf of the PCC. Planned giving receivable under gift aid is recognised only when received. Income tax recoverable on gift aid donations is recognised when the income is recognised. Grants and legacies to the PCC are accounted for as soon as the PCC is notified of its legal entitlement, the amount due can be measured reliably and its ultimate receipt by the PCC is considered probable.

Funds raised from events by such as the Christmas Fair are accounted for gross i.e. before any related costs that may have been deducted from the gross proceeds.

Other ordinary income

Rental income from the letting of church premises and other buildings is recognised when the rental is due.

Income from investments

Dividends are accounted for when due and payable. Interest entitlements are accounted for as they accrue. Tax recoverable on such income is recognised in the same accounting year.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the PCC to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Governance costs include costs of the preparation and examination of statutory accounts, the costs of trustee meetings and cost of any legal advice to trustees on governance or constitutional matters.

Grants payable

Grants and donations are accounted for by the PCC once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Activities directly relating to the work of the church

The diocesan share is accounted for when paid. Any parish share unpaid at 31 December is provided for in these accounts as an operational (though not a legal) liability and is shown as a creditor in the Balance Sheet.

Irrecoverable VAT

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

HOLY TRINITY CHURCH, UPPER TOOTING NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (ctd) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (ctd)

Fixed assets

Consecrated property and movable church furnishings.

Consecrated and beneficed property is not included in the accounts in accordance with s.10 (2) (a) and (c) of the Charities Act 2011.

Moveable church furnishings held by the Vicar and churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal are accounted are inalienable property. They are listed in the church’s inventory which can be inspected (at any reasonable time). For inalienable property acquired prior to 1 January 2000 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the accounts. Items acquired since 1 January have been capitalised and depreciated in the accounts over their current anticipated useful economic life (initially over 4 years) on a straight line basis.

All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or beneficed buildings, individual items under £1,000 or on the repair of moveable church furnishings acquired before 1 January 2000 is written off.

Property

The house currently let at 59 Glenburnie Road, London SW17 7NG is included at value at the date of bequest plus refurbishment costs.

No provision has been made for depreciation as the PCC consider the property to be of greater value currently than when initially recognised.

Other fixtures, fittings and office equipment

Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight-line basis over 4 years. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £1,000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

Hall fixtures and fittings

Hall fixtures and fittings are depreciated on a straight line basis over 10 years. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £1,000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

Church organ

The organ purchased in December 2004 is estimated to have a useful life of twenty years. As such it has been depreciated on a straight line basis over twenty years, against the organ depreciation reserve, commencing in January 2005.

Investments

Investments are valued at market value at 31 December.

Current assets

Amounts owing to the PCC at 31 December in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors less provision for amounts that may prove uncollectable.

Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value.

Short term deposits include cash held on deposit either with the CBF Church of England Funds or at the bank.

Page 10

HOLY TRINITY CHURCH, UPPER TOOTING NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (ctd) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (ctd)

Financial instruments

The church 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.

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash at bank and 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.

Liabilities and provisions

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised within interest payable and similar charges.

Judgements and estimates

Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgment

Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

The charity makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. However, the trustees are of the opinion that there are no estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

11(g) The house at 59 Glenburnie Road is let commercially. It is part of the Taylor Legacy and had a probate valuation of £325,000 in 2010 to which the costs of refurbishment have been added.

11(h) In 2012 the PCC set aside £41,000 of the Taylor Legacy to implement the concept of Holy Trinity becoming a "Centre of Excellence" for people with dementia and their carers. There was no expenditure in the year (2021: £nil) on the 'Clover Café'.

11(i) The Glenburnie Road maintenance fund was established in 2015 to provide for repairs to the Glenburnie Road house. Expenditure in the year was £3,328 (2021: £1,126) and a further £3,000 has been set aside from the 2022 lettings income leaving a balance of £3,097.
