The Parochial Church Council of Preston Plucknett Annual Report and Financial Statements for the Year ending 31[st] December 2022 

## **Statement of Members Responsibilities** 

The members are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the members to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity. 

and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies, as described on page 19 and then apply them consistently. 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent. 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements. 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. 

The members are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. The members are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Annual Report and Financial Statements for the Year ending 31[st] December 2022 

## **Membership** : 

The PCC maintains separate electoral rolls for each of our Churches. 

## **St James** 

As at March 2022 there were 94 parishioners (2021 – 93) on the St James’ Electoral Roll. Church membership, those who regularly worship and are counted as part of the annual parish return, is 106* (2021 – 114 *) and the average weekly attendance, taken during October 2022 was 57 adults (2021 – 53**) and  6 children (2021– 7). 

*During the year we had a reduction of 14 members; 6 deceased, 6 moved away, 2 did not attend during 2022. But 6 new members were added. 

## **St Peters** 

As at March 2022 there were 43 parishioners (2021 – 48) on the St Peters’ Electoral Roll. Church membership, those who regularly worship and are counted as part of the annual parish return, is 59 (2021 - 59) and the average weekly attendance, taken during the October 2022 count was 29 adults (2021 - 30) and 3 (2021 -2) children. Also 20 adults and 19 Children addended Messy Church.(2021 15 Adults 11 Children) 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The trustees have paid due regard to the guidance given by the Charity Commission on public benefit when deciding what activities, the charity should undertake. 

The objectives of the PCC are summed up in our vision statement: - 

The PCC’s vision is to be a wholehearted church where we: 

- Encounter God 

- Grow Disciples 

- Live the Gospel 24/7 in our daily frontline. 

- Gather Community, both within the church, and within the parish. 

This happens through the gathered life of the church (Sundays and in cell groups) in our ministries and programs (children and families ministry, groups for senior citizens, pastoral visitors etc.) and in the lives of church members in their day-to-day settings. 

The PCC is committed to enabling both churches to grow and flourish. The PCC maintains an overview of worship, finance, outreach,[i] ministry, facilities, and parish policies (e.g. Safeguarding). All of this is to serve our calling as God’s people – a people who worship God through Jesus, and who share the message of Jesus with the world.

## **Achievements and Performance** 

## **People and Staffing** 

It has been a year with many comings and goings. Our Associate Vicar Rev Ruth Chapman left at Easter, and the McKnight family who led childrens work at St James moved to a curacy. Thanks to the generous response to a Gift Day, we have been able to take on Laura Broome as part-time Family and Childrens Worker, as well as SWYM student Junel Harris as her assistant. 

The parish continues to punch above its weight in vocations to ordained ministry. We have 2 former members currently in curacies, 2 in ordination training, and one exploring ordination. 

It was another year in which several faithful members of our churches went to glory, in particular we give thanks for the life and service of Betty Hammonds, Derek Mexson and Shirley Peeke. 

## **Worship** : 

- We have maintained the post-covid worship pattern as congregations have rebuilt. Teaching over the year included Johns gospel, spiritual gifts, and a series of ‘panel’ sermons with 2/3 speakers instead of the usual single preacher. 

- Live streamed worship on Sunday continues to be valued by those who are housebound, or who cannot attend in person, and we have been able to restart regular ministry to 4 local care homes, led by our Lay Pastoral Assistants. 

- The number of baptisms and weddings was significantly down on pre-covid levels. We are grateful to Rev Laurence Meering and Rev Graham Perryman for their help with these during the year. 

- We are grateful to our lay worship leaders and musicians at both churches, who lead and support our worship so ably and well. 

## **Children, Youth and Families** 

After a lot of personnel changes in the first half of the year, childrens and youth ministry grew and flourished as the year went on 

- A new youth drop-in at St Peters Community Centre, aimed at the more challenging young people in the Westfield area, ran as a successful pilot in June/July. By the end of the year it had an established leadership team, and 3 years of funding from the Town Council. 

- Tea and Toast relaunched as a girls only youth group# 

- Tots and Toys (mums and 0-2s) restarted under the new Families worker. 

- Messy Church did a publicity push in the Westfield area, and has grown significantly as a result, with 40+ coming to most of the sessions in the autumn. 

- A Christian Union was launched at Westfield school. 

- A number of new children have started to attend St James on Sunday morning, now that there is a regular ‘Junior Church’. 

We are so grateful to all of those who serve with all of these ministries. 

## **Outreach** 

- Prayer continues to be at the heart of our outreach, with monthly prayer gatherings now at both St Peters and St James to pray for mission and outreach in the community. We also had a season of prayer for ‘Thy Kingdom Come’ in the period before Pentecost. 

- Following a ‘START’ course in Jan-Feb, we saw a number of people come to faith, and had the joy of confirming 6 adults and 2 youth during the year. 

- Westfield Warm Hub launched in November, as a response to the cost of living crisis. With the help of outside funding, St Peters Community Centre and Church were able to open 4 days a week, with free lunches, and offer a warm welcoming space to the community. This has been well used, with a rota of ‘welcomers’ in the church covering 20 hours a week and having a number of significant (and usually unexpected!) conversations. Partially as a consequence of

- 

- this, the Community Centre is more well used than ever, and is having a significant impact on the neighborhood. 

- A Jubilee Flower Festival at St James was well supported and showcased both the glory of God’s creation and the creative gifts of the church family. 

- During the year we were pleased to welcome several new Methodist members at St James, with the sad closure of Preston Rd Methodist church. 

**Thank you** to everyone who supports the church financially, both churches finished the year in the black yet again. St James is particularly feeling the effects of covid on membership and giving, and really needs to move away from reliance on yearly Gift Days to balance the books. We are grateful to Frances Croxford and Lynne Biles, our two superb Treasurers, who have worked diligently and cheerfully throughout the year. 

I am grateful for the prayers, love and enthusiasm of every member of our two amazing churches. I am privileged to serve God here, among such good people, and with such an excellent leadership team at both churches. 

_Rev David Keen, February 2023._ 

## **Deanery Synod Report** 

On **8[th] February ’22** we met together on Zoom in the face of steadily rising transmission of Covid in South Somerset.  As usual we shared news from the parishes and items for the deanery prayer diary. 

The focus of this meeting was on chaplaincy and Mike Haslam the chaplaincy advisor for the diocese introduced the topic and explained the overall concept.  He then introduced Linda Hann chaplain for Yeovil hospital, Helena Power chaplain to Rockwell Green estate and primary school, who spoke about their work and answered questions.  Revd James Dudley Smith read a report from Ben Graham chaplain to Yeovil College as Ben was unable to be with us in person. 

Revd David Keen updated us on Diocesan Synod. 

At **the AGM in April St Peter’s church** elected Rhoda Wilson and Margaret Hamilton as deanery synod reps.  They attended Deanery Synod on 21[st] June at St Margaret’s primary church school Tintinhull and heard how the school had managed to educate their students during the lockdown due to Covid 19.  We also had a presentation from the diocesan ecology specialist.  There was plenty advice on helpful ways our churches can respond to climate emergency. 

The next meeting on 25[th] October was changed from the original date and neither of us were able to attend. Future dates are 23[rd] February ’23, 27[th] June ’23, 17[th] October ’23.

## **Annual Safeguarding Report to St James’ and St Peter’s PCC** 

This is my first report as Parish safeguarding Officer (PSO) as I have gradually taken over this role from Mike Cox during 2022.  I have now completed the PSO induction training, and the Leadership level safeguarding training with Bath and Wells Diocese. 

## **Parish Safeguarding Policy** 

The Parish Safeguarding Policy has been updated with new contact details, as have the posters in churches and the website. 

## **Parish Safeguarding Dashboard** 

The parish continues to use the Parish Safeguarding Dashboard, provided by the diocese, to monitor actions required by the PSO and PCC. This is updated regularly, and reports are sent to the PCC. 

## **Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks** 

Throughout the year all paid and volunteer workers with young people and vulnerable adults have had the correct DBS checks, either new or renewed. 

## **Safeguarding Training** 

All volunteers are reminded to renew their training every three years via the CofE online training portal.  A new training course on Domestic Abuse is now available and a requirement for many roles. 

## **St Peter’s Community Centre** 

The growth in activities at St Peter’s Community Centre has created a number of new roles which have required safer recruitment and DBS checks, and further developments are still taking place. 

## **Notes of Concern** 

A few notes of concern have been passed to the PSO this year relating to either young people or vulnerable adults.  All have been dealt with according to diocesan policy.

## **Building and Fabric Reports** 

## **Fabric Report for St James’ Church and Buildings** 

The PCC have continued to ensure that the fabric of the church buildings and surrounds have been kept in good condition. 

All systems requiring annual safety and certification checks have been tested and recertified. This includes gas boilers, fire safety equipment, fire/security alarms and PAT testing. 

The 5 yearly Electrical Installation Condition Report inspection was carried out and the external floodlight system and some of the fire exit lights were found to be inadequate. The floodlight system has been isolated until fault diagnosis has been carried out and the exit lights have been scheduled for replacement by our contractor. 

No major works have been carried out and the work advised by the Quinquennial report has been put on hold until the financial situation improves. 

Some small works and projects have been completed during the year and the second set of two yew trees were cut back hard in year 2 of the 3 year programme. Work was carried out under advice from the Diocesan tree expert and the second pair of trees have survived and are flourishing. 

The churchyard and grounds have been maintained by a small team of dedicated volunteers who cut the grass and look after the flower beds. 

And finally, we should record our thanks to the churchwardens, fabric team, grass cutters, church cleaners and everyone else who helped, for all their hard work during the past year. 

Chris Harris 

## **Fabric Report for St Peter’s Church and Community Centre** 

Its been a busy year at St Peters Church and Community Centre, opening up after covid has bought its challenges. In January we updated our alarm system so as to extend the number of key fobs to 50 which is all now working well. 

We had a few issues with the heating system early in the year and found a faulty heating pump had to be replaced. 

In April we had issues with Sound boards in the centre coming loose and so they we had the ones in the café area removed and re hung. 

The wood panelling on the south end of the Church had a new coat of paint , but probably needs some further attention. 

In September, after a few incidents with Youths climbing on the roof , we made the decision to extend the CCTV around to the back of the Centre. Since then, we have had no further incidents. 

All the usually Gas Safety, Fire alarms, Fire Extinguisher checks, Security Alarms, entry Door Checks and PAT testing have been carried out during the year.

## **2.Independent Examiners Report to the Trustees of the Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of Preston Plucknett** 

I report on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31[st] December 2021 set out on pages 16 to 28. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”). 

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

## **Independent Examiner’s Statement** 

I have completed my examination; I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe in any material respect: 

- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act, or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- the accounts did 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.

The Parochial Church Council of Preston Plucknett Annual Report and Financial Statements for the Year ending 31[st] December 2022 

## **3.Financial Review and Reserves Policy** 

## **Parish Financial Review** 

_Note:  Designated funds are those funds that the PCC has decided to allocate monies to.  Restricted funds are those funds for which monies have been specifically given and are therefore restricted as to what they can be used for._ 

## **Income** 

Total receipts on unrestricted and designated funds were £127,842 _(2021 - £150,096_ ) and for restricted funds £ 83,035 _(2021 - £61,125)_ giving a total income of £ 210,877 _(2020 - £221,221)_ . 

The restricted fund receipts include £68,721 to St Peters Community Centre project, £ 5,448 to the Parish Youth Fund, £ 5483 to Parish Family and Children’s Worker Fund and £ 3,383 to St James Reordering fund. 

## **Expenditure** 

Expenditure on unrestricted and designated funds amounted to £112,965 (2021 - £115,254) and restricted funds £ 63,983 (2021 - £58,592) giving a total expenditure of £ 186,948 (2021 - £173,846). 

Restricted Fund Expenditure includes £46,768 for St Peters Community Centre Project, £12,360 to the Parish Youth Fund , £ 4,813 to Parish Family and Children’s Worker Fund and £42 St James Re Ordering Fund 

## **Reserves policy** 

It is PCC policy to try to maintain a balance on free reserves (net current assets) which equates to at least three months unrestricted payments. This is equivalent to £28,300 (St James £22,600 St Peters £5,700). It is held to smooth out fluctuations in cash flow and to meet emergencies. The balance of the free reserves at the yearend was £ 54,481 (St James £36,346 St Peters £17,895).  This exceeds our target. 

However it would be desirable to set our target to be higher, say 6 Months unrestricted payments which would be £56,599 (St James £45,199 St Peters £11,400) . We are not far off this target and would be good to aim at for next Year. 

## **Funds** 

A summary of funds can be found under note 6 

## **Funds that are Relevant to the whole Parish are :-** 

## **Parish Giving Fund** 

This includes both the Parish Mission giving fund and the Parish community Fund. We have transferred into the fund £2,765 ( £2,397 – 2021) from General funds and £1,776 (£1,761  2021) was added from lent and advent giving and other events. This year we fulfilled our giving pledges to our 4 mission partners of £4,000 ( £4000 - 2021 ) which is to be distributed in February 2023. The balance of £2141 is the balance of our Hardship fund which needs to be reviewed as not had much use. 

## **Parish Youth Fund** 

We started the year at a balance of £13,788, £5,488 was added and costs were £12,360. The balance as at 31 Dec 2022 was £6,876. This fund is due to finish Aug 2023 unless further funding can be found. 

## **Parish Family and Children’s Worker Fund** 

This is a new fund set up this year to enable us to employ a families and children’s worker and a SWYM trainee for the Parish. This was started by a £13,500 legacy, a Gift day £8,851 ( St James £5,483 , St Peters £3,368) and a transfer £5000 from St Peters Reserves. There have been £4813 expenses leaving a balance of £22,538. Estimate that this should run till August 2024 

It is our policy to invest our funds balances with the CBF Church of England Deposit Fund. Balance as at 31 December 2022 £67,163 (St James £40,529, St Peters £26,634) Prior Year £66,291 (St James £40,003 , St Peters £26,287)

## The Parochial Church Council of Preston Plucknett Annual Report and Financial Statements for the Year ending 31[st] December 2022 **Notes to the Accounts** 

## **for the year ended 31[st] December 2022** 

## **1. General Information** 

The PCC is a charity registered with the Charity Commission in England & Wales, number 1158827, and is unincorporated. The address of the principal office is The Parish Office, St James’ Church, Preston Plucknett, Preston Road, Yeovil, Somerset, BA20 2EZ 

## **2.     Statement of Compliance** 

The Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and on an accruals basis in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 and Charities Act 2011, together with applicable accounting standards, FRS 102 and the Charities SORP (FRS 102). 

## **3. Accounting Policies** 

## **Basis of preparation** 

The Financial Statements include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law. They do not include the Financial Statements of church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity. 

## **Funds** 

See separate notes 6 and 16. 

## **Income** 

Collections are recognised when receivable by or on behalf of the PCC. 

The income from social events etc. is accounted for gross of expenses at the time it is received. 

Rental income from the letting of church premises is recognised when the event takes place, and the revenue is earned. Any amounts not received at the year-end are shown within accounts receivable. 

Interest is accounted for when receivable. 

All legacies receivable are credited to the statement of financial activities as incoming resources. 

Donations under gift aid are recognised as income when the donation is received. Donations of items other than cash are included in income at current value. 

Income tax recoverable under the gift aid scheme is recognised at the same time as the donation to which they relate. 

## **Expenditure** 

Resources expended are shown gross, including irrecoverable VAT, and are accounted for on an accrual’s basis. Costs are allocated directly to the category to which they relate or apportioned on an equitable basis where they involve more than one category. Where this allocation is not possible costs are allocated within “other costs”. Missionary and Charitable giving is accounted for when awarded and paid out at the beginning of the next financial Year.

The Parochial Church Council of Preston Plucknett Annual Report and Financial Statements for the Year ending 31[st] December 2022 

## **Fixed Assets** 

Consecrated and beneficed property is excluded from Financial Statements by s10(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 inalienable property.  All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or beneficed buildings and moveable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvements, is written off as expenditure in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) and separately disclosed in the notes to the Financial Statements. The value of the church hall is not included in the Statement of Financial Position as it forms part of a single building with St Peter’s Church.  All expenditure incurred in the year on maintenance or improvement of the property is written off as expenditure in the SOFA and separately disclosed in the notes to the Financial Statements. Other fixed assets over £5,000 are capitalised at cost and depreciated over 4 years on a straight line basis. 

## **Current Assets** 

Amounts owing to the PCC at the balance sheet date are shown as debtors. 

Short term deposits include cash held on deposit with CBF Church of England Funds. 

## **Current Liabilities** 

Creditors are provided in the accounts when expenditure is incurred in the accounting year but not paid until later accounting periods. 

## **Grants** 

Grants are accounted for on the basis of date of receipt. 

## **Value Added Tax** 

The charity is not registered for VAT.  VAT on certain repairs to the church building can be reclaimed under the Listed Places of Worship Scheme. 

## **Judgements and key sources of uncertainty** 

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. 

## **Going concern** 

There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.
