The Parochial Church Council of The Parish of Bloxwich

Trustees’ Annual Report for the year ended 31[st] December 2021

Charity registration number: 1159897

Objectives and Activities

The Parochial Church Council of The Parish of Bloxwich (the PCC) has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent, Rev David Candlin who joined the Parish in October 2021, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical. The PCC is also spiritually responsible for the maintenance of the church

The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of our parish community at all three Churches All Saints, Holy Ascension and St Thomas along with the work of the Youth Church at St James’. 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, scripture, music and sacrament. Also, through non sacramental activities of hospitality and fellowship we aim to reach non churched members of the community.

Public Benefit

The trustees of the Charity are aware of the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit in The Advancement of Religion for the Public Benefit and have had regard to it in their administration of the Charity. The trustees believe that, by promoting the work of the Church of England in the Ecclesiastical Parish of Bloxwich, it helps to promote the whole mission of the Church (pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical) more effectively, within the Ecclesiastical Parish, and that in doing so it provides a benefit to the public by:

• Providing facilities for public worship, pastoral care and spiritual, moral and intellectual development, both for its members and for anyone who wishes to benefit from what the Church offers; and

• Promoting Christian values and service by members of the Church in and to their communities, to the benefit of individuals and society as a whole.

Achievements and Performance

Worship

The parish has three churches for regular worship – All Saints, Holy Ascension and St Thomas’s. Our three churches began the year with worship significantly curtailed due to the Coronavirus pandemic, which impacted on the spiritual wellbeing and worshipping life of our congregations and on our financial position.

By the end of the year, regular worship in our churches had recommenced, with Sunday morning worship in all three churches, and evening services At St Thomas’s. Highlights of our worship during the year included a service at which the Bishop of Lichfield presided inaugurating our new Team Rector, Reverend David Candlin, on Saturday 9[th] October 2021, and a Confirmation service at which the Bishop of Wolverhampton presided on Sunday 10[TH] October.

We had a full programme of services at Christmas time, including well-attended Carol Services at each of our churches, Christmas Eve midnight masses at All Saints and St Thomas’s, and a Christmas Day parish eucharist at All Saints. On Boxing Day we celebrated the eucharist at Holy Ascension.

Occasional offices

All Saints continues to be a popular church for baptisms, weddings and funerals: Baptisms: 32 Weddings: 18 Funerals: 97

Other activities

Holy Ascension has restarted its popular Wednesday coffee morning following the partial lifting of Covid-1 9 restrictions. Fundraising events have also restarted, including Christmas fairs at Holy Ascension and St Thomas’s. However, for much of 2021 All Saints’ church hall has been out of action due to a burst pipe and subsequent flooding, so All Saints has not been able to host its usual community coffee mornings and fundraising events in the hall. The loss of this space has also affected All Saints’ rental income. At the end of 2021, works are ongoing to bring the hall back into use paid for by our insurance policy.

We continue to play an active part in the life of the deanery, and we maintain ecumenical relations through Churches Together in Bloxwich and Blakenall.

The Remembrance Day service and subsequent observation of a two-minute silence at the war memorial outside All Saints were well attended. Rev David preached at the gathering.

We were also delighted that Pat Nesbitt completed her curacy in 2021 and was appointed Assistant Minister of Bloxwich in December by Bishop Clive. Her ministry is warmly appreciated, and we look forward to supporting her in this new role going forwards.

Electoral roll

The electoral roll shows: All Saints’: 76, a decrease of 3 St Thomas’: 51, a decrease of 3 Holy Ascension: 56, a decrease of 1

Fabric of the buildings

Reports on the fabrics of our churches are recorded in the individual Annual Reports of each Church. There are particular concerns at All Saints, which is without central heating at the moment and requires significant investment in a new boiler, piping and radiators. All Saints also has a leak in the tower roof due to storm damage.

Relationships with local schools

We retain good relationships with the two Church of England primary schools in the parish – Little Bloxwich and All Saints National Academy – although meeting the children for worship has been difficult during the pandemic. We look forward to deepening and strengthening relations with staff and pupils in 2022, and to reach out and provide some level of Christian presence in other nonchurch schools in the parish.

Parish Share

All Saints were unable to pay their share of the Parish Share and a liability has been added to the accounts £29,295. St Thomas were also unable to pay their share of the Parish Share and carry a liability into 2022 of £4,325. Holy Ascension paid their share of the Parish Share in full. All Saints and St Thomas will endeavour to repay the liabilities alongside their share of the Common fund request of 2022.

Significant issues for 2022

Our Main areas of work this year is likely to centre around the following:

Page 3

Financial Review

PCC of Bloxwich

Net Total Assets: £176,724 Deficit: (£12,664) – Unrestricted Excess £7,876 Restricted deficit (£20,540)

All Saints Accounts :

Net Total Assets: £140,072 Excess – £5,463.57 - Unrestricted Excess £1,519.65)

All Saints are in excess in 2021 because of not paying £29,295 of their Parish Share had this been paid then there would be a deficit of £23,831.43.

There were a lot of transfers during the year from historic restricted and endowments [that we were able to transfer] to the General fund. This now shows the General fund in a healthier position standing at £42,187.36 when compared to 2020 (£30,605.04). It was necessary to do this as there could be a question as to whether All Saints remained a ‘going concern’. David is discussing with the DCC regarding ringfencing some of the General fund into a designated ‘Mission’ fund. I await authority to transfer an amount and this will be processed in 2022.

Income in 2021 has reduced from £59,639 in 2020 to £57,815.25 – and a long way from the dizzy heights of £95,744 in 2019. The main contributor to this decrease is Church Hall lettings £96 – this is no surprise as the Hall is currently out of action. However, the good news is that users have transferred to Holy Ascension and St Thomas so some of the income is still coming into the Parish.

We had to make the cleaner redundant because of the Hall being closed and affordability – hopefully the Hall can very quickly be brought back into service.

Fees for weddings and funerals unsurprisingly have increased to £11,205 from £5,833 in 2020.

Expenditure has also decreased from £86,988 in 2020 to £52,351 but this is mainly because of the Parish share underpayment. A Parish Share liability has been set up for £29,295.

Hopefully 2022 will be a better year for All Saints.

I would like to thank Jean and Chris for their continued support. Holy Ascension Accounts :

Total Assets: £21,355.61 Deficit – (£18,479.87) Unrestricted Excess £670.21

When you first look at Holy Ascension you wouldn’t be wrong in feeling a bit worried as they are showing a deficit of (£18,479.87). However this is mostly restricted deficit. Collections for the Building work has been shown in the accounts in previous years and the expenditure shown in 2021. 2701 Church major repairs structure and 2710 Installation show a combined total of £27,084.92. This shows us that there have been further collections for the Building fund in 2021 of c£8,000.

The Unrestricted figure is really the one we should concentrate on and this shows a positive £670.21. It is clear that Holy Ascension are bringing in enough to cover their expenditure but only just. A significant contributor in this area is the 1230 Church Hall lettings which has risen by nearly £3,000 – but of course this is to the detriment of All Saints as their Hall is out of action. However the income remains within the Parish as a whole which is the important thing.

The loan stands at £15,726 but Holy Ascension do have £14,532.73 held in the Building fund so can nearly cover that. If the Building is now complete and all paid for my advice would be to repay the loan in full in 2022. I am sure that Richard will know to the penny any outstanding payments and whether fund raising needs to continue to the building fund or can be re-directed to building up the General fund.

I would like to thank Richard for his continued support

Page 4

St Thomas Accounts :

Total Assets: £7,639.36 Excess – £1,172.48 Unrestricted excess £1,043.68

St Thomas have an excess because of not paying all of their Parish Share. A liability has been introduced into the accounts of £4,325. Had this been paid then the deficit would have been £3,153.

Income has increased by c £3,000 due to Church hall lettings and Table top sales. Expenditure has also decreased by £5,989 mainly the Parish Share reduction but also Church running gas has reduced from £2,859 to £481.98.

It has been clear for several years that St Thomas would arrive at this position having unfortunately seen a deficit year on year. The funds held with CCLA is now standing at £3,883.66.

I would like to thank Margaret for her continued support.

Bloxwich Youth Church/Parish Magazine :

Total Assets: £7,657.55 Deficit – (£821.09)

Not much to say about Bloxwich Youth & Parish Magazine. Envelopes for the Parish have been paid from here along with Reader training.

There doesn’t appear to have been any Magazine adverts and only £142 in Magazine sales. However that could be because Churches haven’t transferred their collections across. On a positive note the Church hall lettings has increased to £4,560 from £1,920 2020.

The utility bills have increased but you would expect that with increased lettings and magazine expenses also have decreased. All other expenditure remains similar to last year apart from Parish training and mission which was the payment for the Lay reader training.

I would like to thank Sue for her continued support.

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. Each church will identify their own figure based on its expenditure. The reserve will be held in a designated fund on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. However, for the purposes of this report we have quoted the target as a whole. Three months expenditure is equivalent to £29,845.75. It is held to smooth out fluctuations in cash flow and to meet emergencies. The balance of the free reserves at the year-end was £61,842 which is significantly higher than this target. The PCC of the Parish of Bloxwich commit to working towards being fully compliant with this policy and showing the reserves separately by the end of 2024. We will do this through regular monitoring of finances, planned fundraising activity and careful stewardship of income.

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: -

Investment policy for long-term funds is aimed primarily at generating a sustainable income, with due regard to the need for the preservation of capital value, and the possible need to realise investments to meet operational needs. The charity does not have a policy of generating income at excessive or high risk – known as “purchasing income”, where high returns are guaranteed at the expense of capital.

In summary, the charity has an overall policy to maximise income while preserving the real value of its funds. Due to the nature of the charity, an ethical investment policy is taken into consideration when investments are made:

Planned giving, collections and donations are the main sources of fund raising along with tax recoverable.

Safeguarding

The PCC believe 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).

Reporting Serious Incidents

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 work, loss of the charity’s money or assets, damage to the charity’s property or harm to the charity’s work or reputation.

The trustees are not aware of any Serious Incidents in the last year

Fundraising

The PCC takes it fundraising responsibilities seriously and is very grateful to all donors – whether regular or occasional – for their support of the church and church events. PCC supporters are never taken for granted. The PCC take full responsibility for fundraising and do not use commercial organisations or professional fundraisers. All money raised is either by donations, fundraising events, special appeals or legacies for which the PCC are most grateful.

Volunteers

The members of the PCC would like to thank all of the 41 volunteers who work so hard to make our Church a lively and vibrant community.

Risk Management

The Church Wardens carry out regular Health and Safety Reviews and regularly inspect premises for potential hazards. We have safeguarding policies in place for child protection and for work with vulnerable adults, including rigorous DBS checking of staff and volunteers. Our 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.

Structure, Governance and Management

The PCC is a Body Corporate established by the Church of England and is a Charity registered with the Charity Commission.

The PCC members receive training from courses run by the Diocese. Members of the congregation are always urged to join the Electoral Roll, and to stand for election to the PCC.

The PCC members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance in the parish, and for all financial matters. The PCC met 3 times in 2021

Independent Examiner’s report to the trustees/members of The PCC of The Parish of Bloxwich

Registered charity number, if applicable: 1159897

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31[st] December 2021 which are set out on the following pages.

Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and Independent 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 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independen t examination is needed.

It is my responsibility

Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the 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 material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in any material respect:

I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The Parish of Bloxwich Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 31[st] December 2021

Accounting Policies

The Financial statements of the PCC have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 using the Receipts and Payments basis.

There may be minor discrepancies in the totals as the pence are not being shown.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to these accounts. 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.

Cashflow Statement

The Charity has taken advantage of the exemption in FRS102 from the requirement to produce a cashflow statement on the grounds that the income does not exceed £500,000.

Going Concern

There are no material uncertainties relate to events or conditions that cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Accounting Estimates and Prior Year Errors

No changes to accounting estimates have occurred in the reporting period. No material prior year errors have been identified in the reporting period

Description of Funds

Unrestricted funds are income funds of the PCC that are available for spending on the general purposes of the PCC, including amounts designated by the PCC for fixed assets for its own use or for spending on a future project and which are therefore not included in its "free reserves" as disclosed in the trustees' annual report.

An explantation of purpose of each Designated fund are as follows

Page 11

Restricted funds comprise of two elements :-

An explanation of purpose of each Restricted fund are as follows:

Endowment funds are restricted funds that must be retained as trust capital either permanently or subject to a discretionary power to spend capital as income, and where the use of any income or other benefit derived from the capital may be restricted or unrestricted. Full details of all their restrictions are shown in the notes to the accounts.

An explanation of purpose of each Endowment fund are as follows:

In 2021 a huge piece of work was undertaken. The endowments were not producing £1,000 income annually and have now been transferred to either general funds or restricted depending on the historic purposes. This was to ensure that All Saints remain a going concern.

Bloxwich no longer have any endowments

Page 12

Incoming Resources

Planned giving, collections and donations are recognised when received or when the PCC becomes entitled to the resource and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Tax refunds are recognised when the incoming resource to which they relate is received. Grants and Legacies are accounted for when the PCC is legally entitled to the amounts due and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Dividends are accounted for when receivable, interest is accrued. All other income is recognised when it is receivable. All incoming resources are accounted for gross.

Resources Expended

Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding or constructive obligation on the PCC. The diocesan parish share is accounted for when due. Amounts received specifically for mission are dealt with as restricted funds. All other expenditure is generally recognised when it is incurred and is accounted for gross.

Governance and Support Costs

Support costs should be allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the PCC and its compliance with regulation and good practice.

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources eg by allocating staff costs by time spent and other costs by their usage.

Fixed Assets

Consecrated and benefice property is not included in the accounts by s.10(2)(a)&(C) of the Charities Act 2011. Moveable church furnishings held by the Vicar and Churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal are inalienable property, listed in the Church’s inventory, which can be inspected (at any reasonable time). For anything acquired prior to 2000 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the financial statements.

No depreciation is provided on buildings as the currently estimated residual value of the properties is not less than their carrying value and the remaining useful life of these assets exceeds 50 years, so that any depreciation charges would be immaterial. Other tangible fixed assets are valued at cost. The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note XX.

Investments

Investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued initially at cost and subsequently at market value at the year end. Investments held for re-sale are treated as current asset investments.

Debtors

Debtors are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount. Subsequently they are measured as cash expected to be received

Creditors and Accruals

Creditors are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts. Accruals are measured on best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date.
