All Saints Church, Newmarket Trustees Annual Report 2021
Parochial Church Council of All Saints Church, Newmarket Trustees Annual Report for the year ended 31[st] December 2021
Aim and Purposes
All Saints Parochial Church Council has the responsibility of cooperating with the incumbent, in promoting within the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical.
Objectives and Activities
Report from Curate-in-Charge 2021
Dear Church family and friends,
Thank you, all of you, for being a part of the All Saints’ Church extended family through 2021 which saw ongoing challenges and changes once again.
The biggest, rather obviously, was losing Rev Max Osborne to pastures new in Horringer. After 19 years of dedicated service within this parish this was an inevitably big change as we were so used to Max’s way and suddenly you were faced with Chris King, Joy Edwards and Myself, with our rural dean, Rev Chris Childs in the background for those moments when we needed guidance.
This was an interesting time as a curate, who traditionally hold the role with remit of ‘don’t change anything during a Vacancy’. However, we were faced with coming out of lockdown and re-establishing church and so had to engage in numerous adaptations. I personally have appreciated the support of the regular meeting with Church Wardens, Worship Group, as well as that offered by the ministry team that helped us grow throughout last year.
As a way to guide this growth journey, we embarked upon the Pause, Pray and Listen Initiative from Easter to Ascension, the results of which were presented to the PCC and used to guide us in moving forward. A ‘Dare to Try’ morning followed allowing people the opportunity to look into different church roles and test them out, laying down those areas that had become burdensome.
Growth did happen as more people have come forward to assist in the roles that needed to be re-filled once again.
-
Our children are the church of today and it was a delight to see Kids For Christ reform with a good team of people to assist, using ‘Roots’ material as a resource for connectivity between them. Thank you all who guide, nurture and pray for our younger church.
-
People came forward to become part of the church cleaning team, a renewed Sides person/Welcomer team (Overseen by Hamid Hersel on behalf of the Church Wardens), a new coffee team, and we saw a renewed energy for prayer, outreach and Mission.
-
A small team began to be trained by Richard Hey to assist overseeing the live streaming and we thank them for their willingness to serve in this way.

Parochial Church Council of All Saints Church, Newmarket Trustees Annual Report for the year ended 31[st] December 2021
-
Work went into restarting Shine a Light, which it has been growing under the watchful eye of Robin and Christine Hardy with their team.
-
Work went underway to reform Knit and Natter which was launched early 2022, thanks to another team of people under the watchful eye of Susan Feary.
-
Bible Study Groups continued to meet and some returned to in person meeting and this hybrid blend of online and in person is an important option for the church to maintain. We again took time for a shared Bible Study which saw a new group being formed every Wednesday with Rev Bob Molton and Phillip Allison. It is a delight to see this has continued.
Chris King took over as one of our churchwardens (guided by Paul Stannard who stepped down at the 2021 APCM). It takes time to understand what is expected of a Churchwarden, particularly in a time of Vacancy and I know Chris and Joy have both put a lot of time and effort into the role. My thanks goes to them and to Paul too for continuing the quinquennial work allowing Chris and Joy to focus elsewhere and for being on hand to answer those odd questions. Joy now steps down after many years of service and I know the church owes a great deal of thanks to her for her thoughtfulness and quiet guidance that she has shared over these years. Thank you, Joy.
In July, Rev Bob Molton was priested at a service in the Cathedral and Rick Woodard began his Ordination training. Together with Su Shaw and Fraser, as well as the occasional service led by a guest due to absences, we were well served during 2021. Thank you all for your individual styles that help make our services as rich as they are and for your pastoral care for this family.
Another big change for us was the stepping down of Louise Stannard in the Treasurer role at the end of 2021 and the formation of the Treasurer Team. A huge thank you Louise for all you have done. And welcome and thank you to our new team – Jocelyn McGrath, Frankie Akwensivie, Kat Langham and David Hopper.
Not every change that was hoped for happened straight away, for understandable reasons. However, seeing Messengers reform for our young people was a delight. Thank you to Jane Culpin and others who made this possible.
One area that we were not able to re-establish was the reforming of the Mission and Outreach Group. However, this is about to be rectified under the chair-ship of David McGrath and other volunteers. Watch this space.
The mainstay of our life as followers of Jesus is our prayer and worship. Weekly Prayer and Share continues online under the care of Rev Bob Molton, prayer groups have reformed in church and at home, and work towards bringing Prayer Stations (indoors and out) and a Prayer Board was begun.
Preparing worship is a team event which involves many people, the tech overseen by David Snashall and Richard Hey, the music group led by Beckie Offley, the ministers who lead and the volunteers who support, and this is not including all of those who prepare the space with welcome, decoration, refreshments and many more. Thank you to you all, everyone is important to the life of the church and we cannot function without every part of the body working as one.
Work was undertaken by the Worship Committee to evaluate our 1[st] Sunday, All Age Services where we dared to dream; the committee continue to evaluate and develop the service structure and welcome constructive feedback. Funeral Ministry continues to be a big part of our church and is a vital form of pastoral care and outreach for our church within the community. Tonia Neal informed us she was stepping down as our verger at the end of 2021. This role is so vital for us all and many thanks for doing it so well Tonia.
Cornerstone continued under the chair of Ian Rees after Greer Harbinson stood down after 6 years – thank you Greer, Ian and all the committee old and new for continuing to work so hard. We look forward to seeing the results of the faculty in due course.
I believe this leaves me to just say thank you to you all, for your ongoing support and care for the ministry of this church within this building and in our outreach.
Reverend Susan Allison

Parochial Church Council of All Saints Church, Newmarket Trustees Annual Report for the year ended 31[st] December 2021
Churchwarden’s Report 2021
2021 was a challenging year in many ways, as we gradually negotiated a return to usual church life during the ups and downs of the pandemic. At the same time we were adjusting to life in a vacancy. Max led his last service on June 27[th] , although he had been away on sabbatical since Easter. Some of us attended his induction at Horringer in July. It was extremely fortunate for us that we had two curates in place, which meant we did not have to rely on a series of visiting clergy but could maintain a regular pattern of services and pastoral support. We are so grateful for the leadership that Rev Susan has given us and for Rev Bob, who led his first communion here on July 11[th] . They have been ably supported by Rev Su and Frazer and also by Rick, who is now well underway with his ordination training. We are thankful for our worship team who have led all age services and all those who have helped our worship with prayers, readings or technical support.
The PCC had a series of meetings during which we put together our church profile which we hoped would attract applicants for the post of vicar here, ready for the advertisement to go out in January. This gave us an opportunity to discuss our church life in depth and we pray for a successful outcome and the arrival of a new incumbent later this year. For much of 2021 we were unable to carry out our usual activities and it has been a joy to see them gradually return. Susan has spoken about these in detail already so I will try not to repeat too much. By October we were able to meet socially after services and I would like to thank all the volunteers who are on the coffee rota. It has been so good to see our church family enjoying time together again. This time has been enhanced by our new tables which we were pleased to buy with a legacy from Rose Marshall. They have also been used by groups during the week, including Knit and Natter and Shine a Light. Men of Faith resumed meeting and volunteers from that group have done a few maintenance jobs for us, for which we are grateful.
It was also a great joy to be able to welcome our community into church for three mornings of Teddy Bears’ Christmas in December. Thank you to Gill Godber whose idea it was and who worked so hard, all in support of our Cornerstone funds. Some of our outside user groups have been able to return to the building. The Chamber Orchestra is rehearsing again and put on a concert here. We also welcomed back the Tuesday Group and U3A. A Clinical Pilates class and a support group also ran for a while. It was a pleasure to see the Town Band in church again as they played for our Carols by Candlelight, but also at the service of Thanksgiving for the life of our dear brother Roy Starling.
I must, of course, give special thanks to my fellow churchwarden. Chris took the job on last year at a very difficult time and has served with great dedication. We are both very grateful for our PCC during a year in which we had so many challenges to meet. Together we have made many decisions about the future, considering the appointment of our new incumbent, dealing with the pandemic and the gradual return to normality, alongside updating our policies and procedures. We are fortunate to have a PCC whose members have such a range of expertise, skills and interests. In conclusion, on behalf of Chris and myself, I would like to reiterate our thanks to everybody who has contributed to the life of All Saints during this very difficult year. We look forward, in hope, to serving God and our community together throughout 2022.

Review of the Year – Public Benefit Statement:
Worship and Teaching There has been a significant impact on the regular life of our church throughout the pandemic. Sunday Services of worship and teaching took place throughout 2021 (albeit with a limited number of services and congregation numbers in the church building) during periods outside of ‘Lockdown’.
A variety of service formats including Book of Common Prayer, All Age Worship, Holy Communion and Morning Worship. Services have also been both live streamed and available for later viewing on our website. Worship continues to be led by a team of dedicated musicians using a variety of styles of music and instruments, both traditional & modern, to suit our varied service styles.
This variety of services aims to enable as many people as possible to worship with our church community irrespective of church background.
Clergy have officiated at 1 wedding. There have been 9 funeral services held at the church.
A weekly Zoom prayer meeting and informal weekly teaching and fellowship takes place in small groups meeting via zoom and/or in person. These groups provide an environment to develop relationships, exploring all aspect of Christian life & discipleship (on occasion following common themes) and supporting the wider church in prayer.
Safeguarding In 2021 All Saints Church continued the recommended Diocese Safeguarding training to ensure the safety of children and vulnerable adults. Jane Culpin continues as Parish Safeguarding Officer.
Outreach, Community Partnerships & Pastoral Care Links are maintained with both primary schools in the parish by various members of the PCC and congregation, and the church has a regular presence in some school assemblies. A Parish Christmas Card detailing service times was delivered through every door in the Parish to inform of and invite people to join the activities of the church.
We were happy to see a return to some of our many regular events and look forward to the time when they can all resume with a celebratory atmosphere e.g. our annual Community Day of activities and refreshments, Picnic with the Town Band in the summer, Organ and Choir Concerts, and quiz nights.
The Shine A Light Dementia Group has kept in regular contact with its members throughout the year, within the confines imposed and have resumed meeting in person
The Knit & Natter ladies have kept in touch over social media.
Our many non-affiliated regular user groups began returning for meetings. The church remains their base as well as the Newmarket Town Pastors and their meetings will hopefully all resume as soon as possible. The church is a collection point for donations to the local Food Bank.
Cornerstone Project (Church Re-ordering) The Cornerstone project, which was officially launched in 2017, has continued to progress, albeit much slower than anticipated. This is mainly due to the pandemic and the awaited grant of a faculty for the proposed works. The faculty was submitted to the Diocesan Advisory Committee in October 2021 and the process is ongoing. A meeting is planned for Spring 2022 with the DAC to review the proposals. Once the faculty is granted active fundraising will begin again in earnest.
Fellowship Our ‘Men of Faith’ group resumed in person during the year with monthly prayer meetings and social activities. A Men’s Walking Weekend took place nearer to home than usual at Castle Acre in Norfolk.
Deanery Synod
Three members of the PCC are eligible to sit on the Deanery Synod. Currently only 2 places are filled and a third place was co-opted. This provides the PCC with a link between the parish and the wider structures of the church.

All Saints Church, Newmarket Trustees Annual Report 2021
Independent Examiner’s report to the trustees of All Saints Parochial Church Council for the year ended 31[st] December 2021
Independent Examiner’s report to the trustees of All Saints Parochial Church Council
I report on the accounts of All Saints Church, Newmarket, registered charity 1158500, for the year ended 31 December 2021, which are set out on pages F1, F2 and F3.
Respective responsibilities of the trustees and the examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to
-
Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act
-
To follow procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charities Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the 1993 Act, and
-
To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner’s report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charities Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented to those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in those accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a “true and fair view” and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention
-
(1) Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: To keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met;
-
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The notes on pages FS4 to FS8 form part of these financial statements
Parochial Church Council of All Saints Church, Newmarket Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31[st] December 2021
1. Accounting Policies
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2011 together with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) and on the accruals basis. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The financial statements 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.
Funds
Restricted funds represent (a) income from trust and endowments which may be expended only on those restricted objects provided in terms of the trust or 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 each year must be carried forward as a balance of that fund. The PCC does not usually invest separately for each fund. Where there is no separate investment, interest is apportioned to individual funds on an average balance basis.
Designated Funds are funds that the PCC has set aside for specific projects or purposes and may be returned to the General Fund as the need arises. It has become PCC policy to record any bequest/legacy and other major donations within the Designated Discretionary Fund unless otherwise instructed.
Unrestricted Funds are those that can be used by the PCC for ordinary purposes: The General Fund
Non-PCC controlled restricted funds are:
Hardship Fund - for the benefit of individuals with an unaffordable imminent need at the incumbent or churchwardens’ discretion
Shine A Light - monies raised by and for the use of the Shine A Light team for the purposes and benefit of the Dementia Group Jigsaw - monies raised by and for the use of the Jigsaw team for the purposes and benefit of the Jigsaw Toddler Group
Incoming Resources
Planned giving, collections and donations are recognized when received. Income tax recoverable on covenants or gift aid donations is recognized when the income to which it relates is recognized. Grants and legacies to the PCC are accounted for as soon as the PCC is notified of its entitlement and the amount due. Dividends and interest are accounted for when receivable.

Parochial Church Council of All Saints Church, Newmarket Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31[st] December 2021
Fixed Assets
Consecrated land and benefice property is not included in the accounts in accordance with S.10(2) of the Charities Act 2011.
No value is placed on movable church furnishings held by the churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal since the PCC considers this to be an inalienable property. All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or beneficed buildings and movable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement is written off in the SOFA and separately disclosed. Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on the reducing balance method at the rate of 25% per annum. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £1,000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.
The PCC does not own any investments. Dividends receivable come from a separate charity.
Amounts owing to the PCC at 31 December 2020 in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors less provision for amounts that may prove uncollectable.
Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognized in expenditure.
Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorizing these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
