The PCC is committed to enabling as many people a5 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's. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer,
scripture, music and sacrament. A150, through non sacramental activities of hospltality and fellowship we aim to reach non churched
members of the community.

Achievements and Performance
Team Rectorfs Report
2024 was the third full year of my ministry here in Bloxwich. We continue to grow together as a parish and share regulady in
activities such a5 Messy Church and Bible study. Our three congregations gathered to share in Eucharists to mark Ascension Day,
5t Thomas's Day and All Saints, Day. We a150 worship together on Maundy Thursday and Christmas Day.
Mission
Holy Ascension, St Thomas's and All Saints worked together to prepare a mission plan and we have responded as a parish to the
diocesan Shaping for Mission goals by identifying mi55ional priorities for each church in their respective districts. Key
opportunities for growth in numbers and discipleship include Truth Be Told- our monthly informal afternoon service hosted at All
Saints- and our work with schools - particularly the two Church of England Primary schools IAII Saints National Academy and
Little Bloxwichl. During the year we also established new relationships with Abbey and Lower Farm primary schools.
We reach out to our local community through the Ploces of Welcome initiative. We have a long-running weekly coffee morning at
Holy Ascension and during 2024 we launched a place of welcome at St Thomas's. This was, by chance, the 200 place of welcome
in the diocese and we celebrated this landmark by hosting a party with folk from the diocese and cutting a cake to mark the
occasion.
Page 2

In August we hosted a well-attended Open Day at All Saints which provided a showcase for our activities. We welcomed local
people into church to learn about our faith, to find out about weddings and baptisms, to have a go at bell-ringing, and take part in
a Messy Church taster session. Volunteers from our three churches worked hard to make a success of the day and we hope we
might repeat this in future.
Finances
Our financial situation improved in 2024 as we paid off our parish share arrears and met our Common Fund allocation in full. Holy
Ascension and All Saints were generous in their support to enable the congregation at St Thomas to end the year in surplus. l am
grateful to those who sponsored my bike-ride to Aberdovey on the Welsh coast, raising over £2,000 for All Saints renovations.
During the year we accepted an offer for the mission building in Old Lane and at the end of 2024 we are close to completinB the
sale.
Earlier in 2024 the PCC submitted a revised bid for a grant of £600,000 from the Town Deal Programme to launch the Bloxwich
Advice t7ndSkills Hub IBASHI. This was envisaged by the PCC as a service to the community and a means of securing funding to
renovate All Saints. church hall. However, concerns about our ability to raise revenue funding for scheme, and the fact that
Walsall Council announced a very similar initiative in the old post office in Bloxwich marketplace, led the PCC to withdraw the
application.
Buildings
Holy Ascension and St Thomas's are buildings in relatively good shape,. by contrast, All Saint5 is a challenge to maintain. We made
the decision in 2024 to renovate the narthex and improve the toilet facilities at All Saints, and we are awaiting faculty approval for
these works. In the middle of the year there was a pigeon infestation in the bell tower and significant fouling, which clogged the
clock mechanism. We also experienced leaks in the tower guttering. Remedial work in the tower has been hampered because
access ladder5 do not meet modern building standards.
On the plus side, we have installed a broadband connection in All Saints which facilitates cashless givin& which we believe should
increase donations- particularly at weddings and funerals.
People
Our churches function because of the hard work and commitment of volunteers,. I give thanks to you all because without your
generou5 giving of time and energy we could not thrive as we do.
Rev Chris Davies departed from us in September to be Rector at St Chad's Lichfield. We give thanks for his ministry here in
Bloxwich and wish him well in his new post. Rev Amanda Mallen is reaching the end of her curacy and we pray that She will
discern clearly God's call in this next stage of her ministry. She has made a significant impact here and will make a super
incumbent wherever God leads.
During 20241 began a voluntary chaplaincy at HMP Oakwood, which I visit for a couple of hours each week to lead worship and
Bible study. The prison was without an Anglican chaplain throughout 2024 and we pray that a new appointment will be made in
2025.
Reflertion
Going forwards we must come together in the painstaking work of growth, without which our ministry and mission in this parish
will flounder. Growing in numbers. discipleship and evangelism is a calling Jesu5 makes on all Christians it's not just the work of
the clergy or the warden51 We are all called to join in with the work of the Holy Spirit- who will direct us and fill our heart5 Wlth
desire to share the Gospel. This is an exciting journey- levs embrace it together!

Doy-to-doy income ond expenditure
All Saints recorded a small deficit of £1,963 on day-to-day activities- with the General Fund showing income of E54,63012023-
£65,175) and expenditure of £56,59312023.. £50,489). Donations plus tax recoverable through gift aid totalled £37,59012023'.
£36.5671. Our weddings and funeral ministry continues to be a significant source of funds - with income from fees and charges of
£11,718 although this is a decline of almost a third on the previous year12023'. £16,980). This is a cause for concern given the
importance to our finances of income from occasional fees. We have plans in place to renovate the entrance areas to the building
and the toilet and kitchen facilities to enhance its appeal,. we are currently applying for a faculty for this work.
Our largest single outgoing was our Common Fund contribution to the Diocese of Lichfield - which we paid in full in 2024-
£33,13212023: £32,564). We also Succeeded in paying off our remaining Parish Share liability of £9,865 carried over from previous
years, assisted by the diocese writing off arrears of £6,745 incurred during the Covid 19 pandemic.
Other major day-to-day expenditure in 2024 included insurance1£8,1281 and utilities1£6,1031.
Re5trictedfunds
There was relatively little movement in restricted funds compared with 2023, when we spent £31,864 from restricted funds. In
2024 there was a reduction of £552 in the various funds - with income of £4,436 (largely made up of a one-off donation of £3,500
from a member of the congregation) and expenditure of £4,988. The largest expenditure from restritted funds wa5 £2,268 to clear
the church gutters of leaf litter and £600 to remove offensive graffiti from the church and church hall.
Designotedfvnds
Income from church hall lettings has re¢overed significantly. raising £11,088 in 2024 (compared with £5.258 in 2023 and just
£1,072 in 20221. Hall running costs - comprising ener8y and water costs, maintenance and the wages of a part-time cleaner-
were £6,56512023.' £6.4911. Hence the church hall made a surplus of £4,523 for church funds. The long-term future of the church
hall remains in doubt- the building require5 significant Spending on the roof, electrical system, windows and the kitchen, and All
Saints, DCC has decided to pause any significant additional Spend on the building until its future is decided. We are however
fortunate to have organisations who hire the hall on a regular ba515 and contribute in kind to the upkeep of the bui Iding.
Income ond expenditure.. Conclu5ion5
Summing the general, restricted and designated funds, total income in 2024 was £71,204. This continues a downward trend in
income over the past three year5. However expenditure was £70,099, $0 overall All Saints made a small surplus of just over
£1,000.

The pattern of reduced losses in preceding years and then a small surplus in 2024, shown in the table above, is largely a
consequence of a significant reduttion in Spending on the church building, which may mean we are kicking a can down the road
and storing up significant repair and maintenance costs for future years.
Balonce Sheet
Our balance sheet has held up pretty well over the last three years, with Net Total Assets standing at just over £IOOk at the end of
2024 compared with £103,425 at the end of 2023 and £106k at the end of 2022. Over £80,000 of our Net Total Assets are in
designated funds; it is likely that the DCC will need to undesignate a proportion of them in 2025 because our general fund is i n
deficit by almost £1,200.
Thank5
Thanks go to all who contribute time and money re8ularly, who make generous one-off donations, who manage our income flows
that is fundraising, weddings, funerals and the hall hire- or who pray for the wellbeing of our churches. Our prayer continues to
be that we might grow in numbers, bringing new people to Christ and increasing our capacity to serve our community and
maintain our buildings.

Reserves Polic
It is PCC policy to try to maintain a balance on free reseNes Inet current assets) which equates to at least three months un restricted
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 £30,131 2024 1£26.695 20231. It is held to smooth out flurtuations in cash flow and to meet
emergencies. The balance of the free reserves at the year-end was £16.437 20241£37,192 20231. In addition to this Holy Ascension
has £5,988 and St Thomas has £2,409 held is a designated Reserve fund, bringing the total to £24,834. This is lower than the target.
However there are a further £81,205 held in designated funds which could be transferred to the General fund if needed. In the
uncertain economic climate, it is felt to have a healthy reseNe is a good foundation for the future and will allow the charity to
explore different outreach if identified and a150 be secure of having sufficient reserves if called upon in any unforeseen
circumstances.
Investment Poli
The charity 15 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 15
Sought from the Central Board of Finance ICCLAI in London.
The chariWs investment policies are based on two key principles..
Ethical Investment- this in¢lude5 ensuring that investments are held in companie5 which have high standards of corporate
governance and act in a responsible way towards stakeholder5.
Long-term responsibilities
the trustees are aware of their long-term responsibilities in respect of the Restricted and
Unrestricted reserves and a5 a result follow a prudent approach to investment decisions.
Investment policy for long-term fund5 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 h ave a
policy of generating income at excessive or high risk - known as "purchasing income" where high return5 are guaranteed at the
expense of capital.
In summary. the charity has an overall policy to maximise income while preservin8 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=
The charity follows the Ethical Investment Advisory policy as recommended by the Lichfield Diocese which includes the following-.
"We aim to invest in companies that..
will develop their business in the interests of shareholders,.
demonstrate responsible employment practices.
are conscientious concerning issues of corporate governance, the environment and human rights,.

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 lat any reasonable timel. For anything
acquired prior to 2000 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the finan cial
statements.
No depreciation is provided on building5 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 50% per annum.
Investments
Investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued initially at cost and subsequently at market va lue
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.
