INDEPENDENT EXAMINER MR DAVID CREAL ELAN HOUSE 5a LITTLE PARK FARM ROAD SEGENSWORTH WEST PO15 5SJ

Aim and purposes st. Paul's Parochial Church Council (PCC) has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent (in vacancy) in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The PCC is a150 specifically responsible for the maintenance of St Paul's Church building and its extension in Barnes Lane, Sarisbury Green. Objertives and Artivities 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 St Paul's. 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 prartice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament. When planning our attivities for the year, the incumbent and the PCC have considered the Commission's guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advan￿rnent of religion. In particular, we try to enable ordinary people to Sive out their faith as part of our parish community through: Worship and prayer Teaching and learning about the Gospel and developing their knowledge and trust in Jesus. Provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish. Missionary and outreach work. To facilitate this work, it is important that we maintain the fabric of St. Pauls Church and related buildings. As a principle the church building is open daily for private prayer. Achievements and Performance Worship and Prayer There is one principal Servi￿ at 10.30am every Sunday morning with an average attendance of around 50. These services are complemented by a service of Morning Prayer on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and other services throughout the year to support festivals, especially at Christmas when Christingle Services and Crib services are held; these two seNices each attract more than 200 worshippers. There are also some small groups which meet regularly for Bible study and prayer; these are an important component of pastoral support within the church community. In addition, other services, Baptism, Wedding and Funeral (in church and at local crematoria) are held as need arises.

Deanery Synod Two members of the PCC sit on the deanery symd. This provides the PCC with an important link belmeen the parish and the wider structures of the church. Building Maintenance The usual maintenance tasks on a church almost 200 years old continued through the year. A5 part of this responsibility, work was completed on the tower, clock fa￿ and mechanism. Pastoral Care During the week the new extension is used for: There is a monthly bring-and-share lunch for those who are retired which is normally attended by about 20 people. There is regular weekly cafe attended by 15 to 20 people on average. This Is run by a team of volunteers and provides a valuable means of pastoral support. Once a month there is a group aimed at reaching parents and children called 'Who let the Kids In?. Coffee, Lego, Scalextric and games are available. Once a month there is a'pub night, with the aim of developing links with the wider community and well as pastoral care. Twice a month there is a 'Craft and Cuppa, meeting for chat, light refreshments and participating in craft activities. Some members of our parish are unable to attend church due to sickness or age. Regular Visits take place, to celebrate communion with them either at their homes or in hospital, or just to check they are okay. Mission The PCC aims to support a number of other causes. These include the New Life School in Sarberia, West Bengal and the local foodbank. Ecumenical Relationships st Paul's is part of the Western Wards Church Network which is an inter-denominational ne￿Ork of all churches in the Western Wards of Fareham. St Paul's is also a member of The Western Wards Covenanted Partnership, which includes all 4 Anglican churches in the area.

Volunteers We would like to thank all the volunteers who work so hard to make our church the lively and vibrant community it is. In particular we want to mention our churchwardens Mrs Dulledge and Mr Moseley for their efforts on our behalf, Mr Dulledge who has helped us all to understand the church's accounts and its finances, and all the other members of the PCC and the wider church membership for their valuable contribution to our ministry and for keeping the church running. Structurei governan￿ and management The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. At St. Pauls the membership of the PCC consists of the incumbent (position currently vacant), churchwardens, a retired minister with permission to officiate, the reader and members elected by those members of the congregation who are on the electoral roll of the church. All those who attend our serviceslmembers of the congregation are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the pcc. The PCC members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the parish including deciding on how the funds of the PCC are to be spent. The full PCC met twelve times during the year with an average level of attendance of 800/0. Administrative information St. Paul's Church is situated in Barnes Lane, Sarisbury Green. It is part of the Diocese of Portsmouth within the Church of England. The correspondence address is St Paul's Church, Barnes Lane, Sarisbury Green, Hampshire S0317BG. The PCC is a tody corporate (PCC Powers Measure 1956, Church Representation Rules 2006) and a charity registered with the Charity Commission. PCC members who have served from 1st January 2022 until the date this report was approved are: Ex Officio members Churchwardens.. Mrs Janet Dulledge Mr Paul Moseley Mr Chris Dulledge Rev Lorraine Snape Treasurer: Retired Minister: (Honorary) Elected members: Mrs Jill Sharland Mr John Meridith (until April 2022)

Mr Tony Moore Mr David Hodgson Mr Paul Smith Mr Rob Leslie Ms Julia Jones Mr Nigel Sutton Mrs Elaine Cordner Mrs Jacqui Linford Mrs Brenda Wise Mr Peter Sherwood (until April 2022) (until April 2022) (from April 2022) (from April 2022) (from April 2022) Deanery Synod Mr Phil Rutt Mrs Janet Dulledge Safeguarding Statement At the first meeting following the APCM the PCC re-adopted the Diocesan Safeguarding Policy. It was agreed that Janet Dulledge would continue as our Safeguarding Representative. There have been no matters of concern raised during 2022. Financial Review Total receipts on unrestricted funds were £63,785. There were no Restricted Funds donations, but the Christingle collettions of £371 from December not paid to The Children's Society were held as restritted until paid in 2023. Planned giving through envelopes, bank transfers and the Parish Giving Scheme is essentially flat. As can be seen by the relatively low Collections figure we are extremely tax efficient and are able to claim Gift Aid on most of our giving. Although we continue to keep costs very low, the small size of our congregation over the last few years makes m￿tIng the expected Parish Share difficult. We have paid in full this year, but the future is still likely to be challenging. We are however a growing church with average attendance up by over IOO/o this year. The Portsmouth Diocese made a grant to all churches in the diocese of £1500 this year to help with the massive increase in heating costs. As a small church this was very welcome, but we expect to see a significant increase again in 2023 for heating. The net result for the year was a surplus of receipts over payments of £3,047 on unrestricted funds. We carry reserves: the restricted funds are as in the accounts, with building funds required for repairs to the roof which allow water in during the severe weather.

Reserves policy It Is PCC policy to maintaln an uninvested balance on unrestricted funds, (If possible), which equates to at least two months unrestricted payments, equivalent to £12,000, to cover emergency situations that may arise from time to time. The current account balance of £26, 100 exceeded this (there are also deposits that are available immediately). There are no fixed policies for investments.
