ANNUAL REPORT
PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF HOLY TRINITY LICKEY WITH ST CATHERINE'S CHURCH
BLACKWELL
Year ended 31 December 2023
Annual Report for 2023
Background
The trustees of the Parochial Church Council (PCC) of Holy Trinily, Lickey with St Catherines, Blackwell
are pleased to present their report together with the financial statements for the year ended 31 December
2023.
The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. Accounting and Reporting by Charities:
Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with
Financial Reporting Standard FRS102 and Church Accounting Regulations.
Objectives and Activities
The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship and become part of our parish
community of Holy Trinity with St Catherines. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the
parish and makes suggestions on how our services can involve the many groups that live within our parish.
Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture. music and sacrament.
When planning ouractivities forthe year, we have considered the Commission's guidance on public benefit
and, in pariicular, the supplementary guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. In particular.
we try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our parish community through:
Worship and prayer. leaming about the Gospel. developing knowledge and trust in Jesus.
Provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish.
Missionary and outreach work. In order to facilitate this work. it is important that we maintain the fabric
of the Churches of Holy Trinity and St Catherine and the Trinity Centre Complex.
Achlevements and Performane&
Worship and Prayer:
The PCC is keen to offer a range of services during the week and over the course of the year that our
communily find both beneficial and spiritually fulfilling. Regulady supporting our Vicar are Rev Angela
Bevan and Lay Readers Maggie Forknell, Roger Jones, Tara and lan Morrey. We were joined in June
2023 by Curate Rev Louise Beasley.
As well as meeting for worship on Sundays at 9am at St Catherines and 10:30am at Holy Trinity (6:30pm
on the first Sunday each month) and on a Wednesday at 10am at Holy Trinty, prayer ministry is offered
following our Sunday services. We also offer a weekly Tlny Church Service and monthly Burcot Grange
Communion. This year we have grown the number of our congregations.
Our Cycle Church Service meeting monthly runs from April- October based at St Catherines. We hold a
monthly Communion Service In Burcot Grange, Cofton Park Manor and Redwood House Residential
Settings for Seniors. We hold a monthly Timeless: Dementia Service based at St Catherine from April -

October and in Burcot Lodge Residential Setting from November- March. In addition we have also begun
a monthly Messy Church Service at St Catherines.
Occaslonal Servlces:
We provide opportunity for our community to celebrate and thank God at the milestones of their joumey
through life. Through baptism we thank God forthe gift of life, In marriage public vows are exchanged with
God's blessing and through funeral services friends and family express their grief and give thanks for the
life which is now complete in this world and to commend the person into God's keeping. We have
celebrated 9 baptisms and 1 weddings in 2023 and held 18 funerals and 15 burial of ashes in ourchurches
last year.
Deanery Synod:
Two members of the PCC sit on the deanery synod. This provides the PCC wrth an important link between
the parish and the wider structures of the church.
Church Malntenan¢e:
Our Care of Churches group has worked tirelessly this year to address wear and tear on our buildings.
We are very grateful to Keith Parsons, Oliver James and Grant Wilson for their work in this area. John
Armstrong has also made himself available to advise on insurance-related issues.
At Holy Trinity, grounds maintenance, including pruning and pollarding has continued in Ihe usual way.
At St Catherines, Blackwell work was needed to complete the repairs to the boiler chimney and tower
which required scaffolding for most of the year. The screeding and re-painting is now complete but
unfortunately the scaffolding work resulted in some broken tiles above the North aisle resulting in a leak.
This has now been mostly repaI￿d and plans in hand to repaint the ceiling inside. Work was also carried
out providing new. remote control of the heating systems in both St Catherines and The Wheel.
While these major works have inevitably been expensive and disruptive for t)oth churches, insurers are
making a wntribution and we are grateful to our congregations for their patience and help while this
work has been under way.
Throughout the year OES have been invaluable in diagnosing problems, resolving them where
appropriate and project managing other external contractors where that has been necessary. With
OES'S help. we have continued a programme of work to tidy and improve our Churchyard extension at
Lickey and the Coffin Walk which runs between the extension and the church. This has also provided an
opportunity for parishioners to enjoy working together in the open air. OES have also helped us to
address issues about safety and (importantly) energy efficiency in all of our buildings.
As we all know, the cost of energy has remained high during this year. This has led to ongoing
consideralion of more cost-effeclive heating solutions at both churches. We are very grateful to Grant
Wilson (who joins the Care of Churches Group for 2023) for leading us in this work. It is likely that Holy
Trinity will need 8 replacement boiler. At st Catherine, the system in place is newer so that the payback
from investrnent in a new system would be more marginal. During the course of the winter of 2023, we
decided to temporarily revert to joint services al altemating churches to save on heating costs.
We were pleased to welcome Phelim O'Hare for an Archdeacon's Visitation in November 2023 and,
thankfully, he seemed satisfied with what he found. A Quinquennial Inspection was carried out in the
Autumn. and a list of potential work items generated.

The Trinity Centre Complex
Church OfficelParish Office:
The Church office is in The Trinity Centre and each week is occupied on two momings by the Parish Office
Manager, one day by the Finance Officer and one day by the Executive Officerof the Local Parish Council.
The Hall:
Income for the Trinity Centre continues to come in due to regular hirers, but we do have times in the week
for more hirers. The committee where possible have continued to maintain the Trinity Centre, thus keeping
costs down as much as possible.
Functlonlng of the ¢hurch:
Pasloral Care:
Our Home Communion Team of 6 visit monthly by request, church members in their homelresidential care
who are unable lo come to church due to vulnerability, frailty, or illness.
Our OPCCS (Offering Pastoral Care and Community Skills) are active visiting by request members of the
community I church family who need a little extra support.
Mlsslon and Evangelism-
We seek to be a people who make known the Good News of the Kingdom, teaching, baptising and
nurturing new believers. Our life together as church is underpinned by individual and corporate prayer. We
reach out to others in the local community and by loving service aim to draw them in to God's Kingdom.
Specific mission outreach includes..
Through our World Link Action Team we support a variety of Mission Partners both Overseas and
in the UK. We try to receive a guest speaker from both an Overseas and a UK Mission Partner
every year
We are part of the God's Heart for Longbridge group of churches. This ecumenical group provides
haplaincy and OLrtreach activities at Festival Events. Several church members are actively involved
here
Our work with local schools has been important this year. Temily assemblies and support with RE
lessons have taken place in Lickey Hills Primary School. In November Year 1 visited Holy Trinity
for the afternoon as part of their RE curriculum. In December we were able to host in Holy Trinity
the Christmas Concert for Key Stsge 2 children. Temily assemblies and support with RE lessons
have taken place in Blackwell First School
The Community Garden at St Catherine is a place for the local community to grow food and enjoy
the outdoors together.
Coffee Cake and Chat in both Holy Trinity Lickey and St Catherine Blackwell and Buffet Lunches
at The Vicarage.
Relationships with other local churches:
This year, in consultation with and at the request of the Diocese of Birmingham we joined The Hillside
Oversight Area with the parishes of Rednal, Rubery. Cofton Hackett and Bamt Green. We are beginning
to work more closely together with an event e8ch temi planned for us to be together.
Due to joining the Oversight Area we were offered and accepted the invitation to join B45 Churches
Together, this group made up of the geographical Oversight Area now including all of the denominations.

Finance and Accounts:
In 2023, the church continued to engage a contractor, OES. for small maintenance jobs. OES is run by
Ollie James. and this has been declared on the PCC Register of Inlerest.
In 2023, the church also continued to engage Jane Price as a contractor for Finance Administration. This
is also declared on the PCC Register of Interest
In 2023. Nick Forknell, Maggie Forknell and Keith Parsons received payments for verger and organist
services. This is also declared on the PCC Register of Interest
Towards the end of 2023 CCLA Investment Management Limited, who is the manager of the CBF
Church of England Deposit Funds, migrated the administration of the accounts to FNZ. This has resulted
in the fund interest. which would nomially be paid at the end of the year, now being paid at the beginning
of 2024. As the statements for the investments are received at the end of the following year. interest is
not known at this time. so no accrual has been made to the accounts. Despite this, our investments
increased to show an overall gain of £7031.91.
Overall funds for the church increased by £5224 in 2023. Income from Generating Funds went up by
£4067, which was mainly comprised of fvndraising events, which provided additional funds of £1797,
and the Wheel, which saw an increase In hire generating £1136 more than the previous year. We
received a refund from The Diocese from the Parsonage Decoration Scheme of £3063 which also
contributed to the overall funds.
Planned Giving saw a slight increase of £2182 with collections at services providing a further increase of
£1711. However, we saw a decrease in restricted donations by £3925.
Further payments were made during the year towards repairs at St Catherines. These payments are
possibly the subject of an insurance claim. No accrual has been made as the final value of the insurance
claim is not known at this time.
There was movement within funds in 2023, with money being transferred from the General Fund to
correct shortfalls within the Curate Fund. Although receiving £1050 in restricted donations and £4375
from BDBF in respect of restrlcted allowance towards Curate rental property, £1136 was Iransferred to
cover a negalive balan￿ within the Curate Fund.
The Vicarage costs show a significant increase in 2023, with £10029 spend from the Curate Fund being
made towards the cost of a Curate included in the vicarage figures.
In 2023, monies held in St Catherines Organ Fund were used to purchase an organ for St Catherines
with money from the Altar & Investment Fund being used to cover the shortfall within St Catherines
Organ Fund. Church Service Costs reflect this spend. £83 was transferred from the General Fund to
cover the shortfall within the Altar & Investment Fund with the majority of the Altar & Investment Fund
held in an investment account.
Total Debtors in 2023 is £10.784 with total Creditors £9.630
