Aim and Purposes** Eccleshall Parochial Church Council (PCC) has the responsibility of cooperating with the incumbent, the Reverend Phillip Johnson in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social, and ecumenical. The PCC is also specifically responsible for the maintenance of two churches, the parish church, The Church of the Holy Trinity, The Church of St Chad, Slindon (a chapel of ease), and a Parish Room. ## **2. Public Benefit** The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship in the two churches and to become part of the parish community and the pastoral care of the people of Eccleshall Parish. The churches’ acts of worship reflect Christian faith through Fellowship, Prayer, Scripture, and the Sacraments. All that has been done and planned during 2025 has been consistent with the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit and in particular the supplementary guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. In summary we strive to enable people to live out their faith as part of our parish community through: - Worship and prayer; learning about the gospel; and developing their knowledge and trust in the Christian faith. - Provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish, with emphasis on the needs of the bereaved, the requirements of the occasional offices and the need to reach out to younger generations. - Mission and outreach work. - Supporting worship and Christian ethos and education in a church school and supporting worship in another (non-church) school. To promote this work the maintenance of the fabric of the two churches is vital, as is the care and maintenance of the Parish Room (situated next to Holy Trinity Church), a facility to serve all members of the parish. ## **3. Structure, Governance and Management** ## **a. Parochial Church Council (PCC)** Eccleshall Parochial Church Council (Eccleshall PCC) is a corporate body established by the Church of England under the Parochial Church Council Powers Measure. The PCC is registered with the Charity Commission No.1153305. The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. The Vicar is Chairman of the PCC. The four Churchwardens, those ordained ministers who hold the Bishop's License, and Deanery Synod representatives are ex-officio members. The other members of the PCC are elected by the congregation at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting, and the members of the PCC then annually elect a Secretary and Treasurer (Chair of Finance Committee). All regular Church attendees are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and to stand for election to the PCC. There may also be co-options to the PCC where particular needs are identified. All members of the PCC are Trustees and training in the duties of Trustees is provided as part of the process of induction of new PCC members. The PCC meets on a regular basis to transact business and receive reports from its committees. Representatives who serve on the Deanery Synod report on its activities. The PCC derives its income from direct giving by congregation and visitors, fund raising and Gift Aided profits from Eccleshall Parish activities, and from legacies. ## **b. Management and Employment** The PCC employs a number of full-time and part-time staff and benefits from the support of numerous volunteers who offer their services at no cost to the PCC. The PCC considers that the Vicar, Churchwardens and other PCC members and certain senior employed staff comprise the key management of Eccleshall Parish in charge of directing and controlling, running and operating the Parish on a day-to-day basis. The pay of staff is reviewed annually. The PCC recognises the contribution of all employed staff and volunteers to the Parish's mission and witness and takes this opportunity to thank them for their service. Details of our Activities, Mission and Impact in 2025 are contained in the separate _Impact Report 2025_ published alongside this TAR. ## **4. Safeguarding & Reporting Serious Incidents** The Trustees believe that they have fulfilled their duty under Section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016 (duty to have due regard to House of Bishops’ guidance on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults). A serious incident is an adverse event, whether actual or alleged, which results in or risks significant harm to the charity’s beneficiaries, employees, office holders, volunteers or to others who come into contact with the charity through its works, loss of the charity’s money or assets, damage to the charity’s property, or harm to the charity’s work or reputation. Health and Safety, and Safeguarding are reviewed as an agenda item at each PCC meeting. The Trustees are not aware of any serious incidents in the last year. ## **5. Risk Management** The Church Wardens conduct regular Health and Safety Reviews and regularly inspect premises for potential hazards. The Trustees have safeguarding policies in place for child protection and for work with vulnerable adults, including rigorous DBS checking of staff and volunteers. Parish insurances are reviewed annually to ensure adequate cover. An informal review of any new risks which may impact the work of the Church in the Parish is ongoing. ## **6. Financial Review** The PCC set ambitious targets for growth in 2024 and 2025, and this report and the subsequent accounts show the development of that policy. The trustees have decided to pursue a programme of investment in both direct ministry and the fabric of both buildings, along with improvements to governance processes. This has led to increased congregational and event attendance. Further details can be found in our _Impact Report 2025._ ## **7. Reserves Policy** The Reserves and Investment Policy has been established consistent with the charitable purposes of the Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of Eccleshall (Registered Charity Number 1153305) and the terms of the Trust Deeds of the Parish Endowment Trust Funds. The primary objective is to secure the long-term future of the Christian churches in Eccleshall Parish (Holy Trinity and St Chads) with particular emphasis on mission and educational development within the parish. The regular expenditure of the churches is planned to be met primarily from regular giving and other income sources with the objective of holding a working capital balance on the Church General Fund equivalent to three months expenditure. The short-term funds will be held in approved UK bank accounts. The long-term funds will be held in CCLA and other approved investment funds on terms established by Eccleshall PCC acting as administrative trustee in conjunction with the Lichfield Diocesan Board of Finance acting as custodian trustee. ## **8. Investment Policy** The charity is granted power to invest in suitable investments under the PCC Powers Measure 1956 and the Trustees Act 2000. As a charity, the Trustees have a duty of care to take such advice as is appropriate before investments are undertaken. This advice is sought from the Central Board of Finance (CCLA) in London. The charity’s investment policies are based on two key principles: - - Ethical Investment – this includes ensuring that investments are held in companies which have high standards of corporate governance and act in a responsible way towards stakeholders. - Long-term responsibilities – the trustees are aware of their long-term responsibilities in respect of the Restricted and Unrestricted reserves and as a result follow a prudent approach to investment decisions. Due to the nature of the charity, an ethical investment policy is taken into consideration when investments are made and the charity follows the Ethical Investment Advisory policy as recommended by the Lichfield Diocese: ‘’We aim to invest in companies that will develop their business in the interests of shareholders, demonstrate responsible employment practices, are conscientious concerning issues of corporate governance, the environment, and human rights, and are sensitive to the community in which they operate.’’ Details of our Activities, Mission and Impact in 2025 are contained in the separate _Impact Report 2025_ published alongside this TAR. **9. Disclosures** The following payments were made to related parties: Incumbent Expenses £5,811.00 Independent Examiner £300.00 Anthony Jones (trustee) £688.00 (for churchyard path grounds work). The average number of employees was 4 and total payment in gross salaries in 2025 was £77, 024 with employer contributions to pension scheme of £1,738.00 ## **Thank You** **The Church Council would like warmly to thank everyone who has contributed to the thriving life of Holy Trinity Eccleshall and St Chad’s Slindon in any way.** **The Trustees’ Annual Report and Accounts were approved by the Eccleshall Parochial Church Council on 2[nd] March 2026 and signed on their behalf by The Rev Phillip Johnson:** **The Rev Phillip Johnson** ## **Eccleshall Parish (Holy Trinity & St Chad's)** ## **SOFA - Statement of Financial Activities For the period 1 January 2025 - 31 December 2025** **----- Start of picture text -----**
