We re￿iVed a VAT grant of £39,088 relating to this expenditure. Therefore the net cost of the.se two projects was £200,989. Back in 2022123 we received £245,291 from the Diocese for the Rectory Hall and a Special Fund was created from this money to initially be used on these repair projeGts. Excluding the major repair transactions, unrestricted income for 2024 was £74,397 and expenditure £75,519, so breakeven. The main focus of the year was the repair work so there was no other abnormal expenditure. The Flower Festival did take place and made a profit of £6,004. The £37,410 Parish Share was paid in full. In the year The Overseas Mission committee donated £2,730 to various international Christian charities and The Friends, of All Saints, raised just over £5,400 for the Church bLAilding. At the end of the year the general unrestricted fund held £52,424. the unrestricted Special Fund (relating the Rectory Hall monies) £28,940. The Friends of All Saints, Church £24,486. The Overseas Mission Committee £767. and the Special Objects Fund £3,586. Treasurer Richard Sainsbury gd4 13.Q4.25 Parochial Church Council of All Saints, Parish Church Stock Harvard Independent Examiner's Report to the PCC of All Saknts, Parish Church, Stock Harvard I report on the acc'ounts of the PCC for the year ended 31 Decanber 2024, whiLh are set out on pages 6 to 13. Respective responsibilities of the PCC and examiner The charity's trustees consider tha.t an audit is nol reqiiired for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independ¢nt examination is needed. It is my responsibility to eX￿lline the accounts under section 145 of the Ch￿ItIeS Act. to follow procedures laid down in the gene,ral directions givell by the Charity Conmiissioners s¢¢tion 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act. and state whether particular matters have come to my attention. Basis of Illdependent Examiners Statement My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Comrnission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the PCC and a comparison of the accounts with those records. It also includes considering any uniisud items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explallation8 frouL th¢ PCC concerning any such llLattcrs. Tbe procedures undertakeii do not provide all the evidence that Miould be required in an audit, and consequently llo opinion is givcll as to wheth& the awounts present a 'tnLe and fair, VA¢W and tb¢ report is limited to those matters set out in the st'atemeiit below. Independent examiner's st.atement In connection with my cxamilldtion, no mat￿la1 matters have come to my attention which give me cause to believe that in any material respect,. accoullting records wcrc not kcpt in aLiordance with s. 130 of thL Chanties 2011 Act. or thc accounts do not a,ccord with the accowiting records. I hav¢ come acroys no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper und￿￿tanding of the accounts to be reached.
