Trustees Report
Objects of the charity
The purpose of the charity, as stated is "promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of
the church" pastoral, evangelistic and ecumenical, and to provide public benefit through the
provision of "free regular public worship open lo all" The Parish of Aston and Nechells seeks to
°show and share the love of Jesus" to everyone in the Parish regardless of age, gender, religion,
ethnicity, disability or sexual orientation. Additionally, beyond the parish we provide gifts to support
the wider rnission of the church in this country and overseas.
Summary of the charity's maln aclivities and achievements
How our activlties deliver public benefit and who has benefitled.
Public worship takes place mainly at thfee sites across the parish.. at Aston Parish Church on
Saturdays (Asian Fellowship, bilingual serwice) and Sundays {morning)' at St James Aston on
Sundays, and monthly at st Matthew's Community Hall on Wednesdays. Special services take
place at festival times for example our very well attended Carols by Candlelight, Remembrance
Day, Somme Sunday, in partnership with Aston Churches Together and Nechells Christian8.
Weekday prayers take place at Aston Parish Church on Mondays, and Sl Matthew's and St James
on Tuesdays. We run a youlh group which meets fortnightly during term time. Prayer takes place
in term time at our two church schools: weekly at st Matthew's and fortnightly at St Clement's.
The current worshipping community across our congregations is around 100 people, including a
number who are unable to attend church on a regular basis due to health COn￿rnS or vulnerability.
Th8 activities of the parish would not take place without significant contribution from volunteers-
over fifty people are involved to ensure that the church is able to run them.
As well as using our buildings ourselves, we also havè a numb8r of tenants across our three sites.
We seek to use our buildings to further the mission of the church and to bless the local
Gommunilies of the parish. Sl James hosts the Aston Pre-school whiGh provides education for pre-
schoolers in the area. St Matthew's hosts the Aston and Nechells Foodbank, 211 Scouts, and
church congregations. Aslon Parish Church hosts our Brownies and Guides and St Mary's
Eritrean Orthodox congregation. We also have a number of one-off bookings from members of the
local community. 2025 saw repla￿ment of the single glazed windows at St James, with double
glazed windows as well as OLtr 5 yearly Electrical Inspections at St James, Aston Parish Church
and the Aston Parish Church Centre. All remedial work was completed in both churches and the
church centre. In addition, the lighting in the Church centre was replaced with LED lighting and
emergency lighting was put in. We are grateful for the Minor repairs and Environmental Quick
Wins grants that enabled the LED lighting work at the Church Centre and the double glazin9 at St
James.
The Parish runs regular enquirer groups, such as Alpha and Startl The parish also hosts schools
and other groups who come to learn about the Christian faith and to learn about the history and
heritage of the church buildings and congregations.
Working together with Aston Churches Together and Nechells Chrlstians the parish is involved in
Good Friday Walks of Witness, Christmas Carols at Tesco, and Christmas Carols at the Villa
ground. The parish also seeks to connect with the large numbers of Villa fans who pass Ihe
church regularly. Fans are invited to a Carol service before the last home game before Christmas
Peio

and the chU￿h is open before any Good Fridayl Holy Salurday matches wlth the opportunity to
follow a prayer trail artd learn about the heritage of the churGh.
The PCC, staff and clergy regularly review the activities of the parish, looking at the success of
each key activity, assessing the benefits lo those attending, and planning future activities
accordingly.
Reference has been made to the Charily Commission's general guidance on public benefit. In
planning the activities, the trustees have applied the guidance on public benefit issued by the
Charity Commission.
Structure, Governance and Management
Future Plans
The Parish of Aston and Nechells exists to worship God, love one another and share the good
news of Jesus in word and action. Looking to the future, we are continuing to review and develop
our vision for this next stage in Ihe life of our parish. This will include r6viewing how worship is led,
growing new leaders, growing opportunities to get to know one another better and support one
another, and looking at how we reach out with the good nèws of Jesus lo the local community.
We are exploring whether we can widen our youth provision and, also, the possibility of setting up
a warm spacel welcome space. We are reviewing how we use our buildings to further mission and
benefit the community and are in conversation with a potential longer-term hirer who would be
providing seNices to the local community. We are also reviewing our governance structures to
ensure th8 best fit for our current and future needs.
Throughout 2025 we have continued to implement recommendations from the 2023 flnance review
and have made good progress.
The 2026 budget includes a number of special projects including some carpet replacement at st
James and upgrading the disabled toilet in the Aston Parish Church Centre. In 2026 we will
receive the Quinquennial In$pedion report on Aston Parish Church and will be looking at how we
can apply for funding forthe work that needs doing at the East End ofthe parish church. We are
continuing to prioritise work requirements across our buildings.

members of the congregation, on the elecloral roll of the parish and serving on the Deanery,
Diocesan, or General Synods together with clergy licensed to the parish, aré members ofthe PCC.

The churchwardens of each church are also members of the PCC and form a direct link between
the Bishop and the parish. They see that the PCC carries out its responsibilities for the care,
maintenance and insurance of the church, its contents, grounds and other buildings owned by the
PCC. They also arrange to inspect the fabric of the Ghur¢h's premises a* appropriate intervals and
report to the annual parochial church meeting.

anisation St cture
The PCC normally meets at least five times per year, with an agenda circulated to trustees in
advance of each meeting. Each of the three churcheslcentres in the parish has a specific

Notes - Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the "Statement of Recommended PractiC8'.
Accounting and Reporting by Charilies preparing their accounts In accordance wilh the Financial Reporting
Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102> ("the Charities SORP"), with the Financial
Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102") and with the
Charities Act 2011. The charity rneels the definition cf a public benefit entity as set out in FRS 102.
The principles adopted in the preparation of the financial stalements are set out in the accounting policies
below.
Golng Concern
The Trustees consider the Parish of Aston and Nechells is a going con￿rn at the date for approving the
accounts. There are no material uncertaintias that the charily can Gontinue as a going concern for the next
year.
Key Risks & Uncertalnties
The charity is exposed to various risks, including operational, financial and reputational risks. The trustees
review the Gharity's activities regularly to identify significant risks and, where possible, they take appropriate
measures to mitigate those risks.
Fund Accountlng
Unrestricted income funds comprise those funds which the trustees are free to use for any purpose in
furtherance of the charilable objects.
Unrestricted funds include designatgd funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have set a6ide resources
for a specific purpose.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in a¢cordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donor
or the term of specific appeal.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to th8 accounts.
Incoming Resources
All incoming resources are recognised once the charity has entitlement to the resources, it is probable that the
resources will be received, and the monetary value of incoming resource8 can be measured with sufficient
reliability.
All voluntary income from members of the charity are recognised as donations and are included in full,
with associated Gift Aid receivable in the Statement of Financial Activities.
Grants where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of specific performance by the charity are
recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled lo the grant.
Income resources from charitable trading activities such as the letting of the building are accounted for
when invoices are drawn up las at the point of entitlement).
Donated setvices and facilities are included at the value lo the charily where this can be quantified.
Q Gifts in Kind are accounted for al a reasonable èstimate of thelr value to the charlty or the amount
actually realised.
Volunteer time, the value of voluntary support for the work of the charity, is not included in the accounts
but is described in the Trustees Annual Report.
PayB t2

Investment Income is induded in the accounls when receivable
Resources Expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Liabilities are recognised where it is
more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity lo pay out the
resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
Governance Costs
Governance costs include costs associated with the independent examination of the financial statements,
compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements and any other expenditure incurred on the strategic
management of the charity. Governance costs are shown wlthin 'Analysis of Expenditure, note.
Liability ReGognition
Liabililie5 are reoognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committlng the charity to pay out
resources,
Tangible Flxed Assets
Consecrated and benefice property 16 excluded and not capitalised in th8 Financial Stalemenfs in accordance
with the Charities Act 2011.
Freehold land and buildings used for charitable purposes & investment properties.
The properties that are held by the Birniingham Diocese Trustee (BDT) as custodian trustees on behalf of the
Charity (as Parochial Church Councils are not allowed by law to own property outright) are revalued from time
to time as necessary and have been included in the balance sheet at 8Stimated fair value.
Investments are recognised at their quoted market price. Unrealised gains or losses are calculat8d as the
difference between the fair value at the year end and their carrying value.
Depre¢iation, if applicable, is provided on tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost of an
asset, less its estimated residual value, over the expected useful economic life of that asset, as follows..
Freehold property - Not depreciated
Musical and Tèchnical Equipment- 100% charged in year of purchase
Computer equipment- 100% tharged in year of purchase
Fumiture, fixtures and fittings - 1 OOOA charged in year of purchase unless PCC decides otherwise.
Iln view of the malntenance prograrnme in place which aims to keep the buildings in good condition, the
trustees consider that any depreciation of freehold property would be immaterial and accordingly no provision
has been made. The carrying amount of the freehold property is reviewed annually for impairment by the
trustees.]
Operating and Financial Leases
None in for
Taxation
The charity is exempl from tax on its charitable activities.
p4B 13

Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation
The trustees do not consider that there are any malerial sources of estimation or uncertainty at the balance
sheet date that could result in a material adjustment to the carying values of assets and liabilities in the next
reporting period.
Roundlngs to nearest Pound
All monetary values are rounded to the nearest £. Therefore, there may be small discrepancies in tables when
added vertically or horizontally.
