Annual Report

The Parochial Church Committee fulfils its role by achieving the whole mission of the church in actively engaging with individuals, statutory, voluntary and faith organisations within the parish and in the wider world. We do this because we seek to fulfil our commitment to the commission we have from Christ to spread the good news of the Gospel; alongside practical care, education and pastoral support for anyone who lives within the parish.

This year has been another active year for the parish. Services at All Saints’ and St. Andrew’s have continued to flourish. The 9am Service has remained steady in attendance numbers whilst the main 11am Service has continued to attract new people. ‘This Time Tomorrow’ slot has seen many different members of the Church community share their lives through an interview at the front of Church. It has helped to raise the profile of many people as they have shared a small part of their lives with the wider Church and the importance of faith in everyday lives.

The 11am Service has continued with the monthly Altogether services on the first Sunday of the month. A huge thank you to everyone that has helped to prepare and serve food at these services. We have enjoyed multiple baptisms this year, including outdoor baptisms during our summer services.

The introduction of a new 2pm service ‘Word Alive’ with worship in the African Anglican tradition has brought diversity and new members to All Saints. The starting by Ruth Ison of Forest church has seen on average 20 people per month gather together to explore God through his creation.

Alpha has run throughout the year at All Saints’ and continues to help many people explore their faith. Approximately half the people who have attended are because of preparations for baptism or marriage. Digging Deeper takes place every second Sunday and attracts a variety of outside speakers who inspire many with their wisdom and their understanding of the Holy Spirit and ministry in the power of the Holy Spirit. Many thanks to Mary Morris and her team for organising these services.

All Saints’ Church and St. Andrew’s has welcomed multiple youth events taking place every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday after school. These activities have been led by Josh Harrison (Senior Youth Pastor) and our youth team staff. These weekly activities continue to attract many young people into our Church.

Nicola Ugochukwu our Growing Faith Families’ worker continues to lead a growing team of volunteers who support our BPC Kids ministry. BPC Youth our new group for our young people from School Years 6 to 9 has been very popular with our young people on a Sunday. Nicola has also led multi parish events through the Super Sunday School Project as a result of funding from the Nicholas Chamberlaine Trust.

The midweek service at All Saint’s serves a regular group of worshippers who enjoy the more relaxed style of this service. Many choose to stay on for the weekly lunch organised by North Warwickshire Edible Links.

St. Andrew’s Church has enjoyed a year full of much activity. Café Church on the first Sunday of every month is very popular with many worshippers experiencing the joy of informal worship, discussions and space for the Holy Spirit to minister to people. Several new people have joined the main service which attracts a low, but loyal group of regular worshippers.

Treasure Tots continues to draw in parents, carers and their young children for weekly fun, food, fellowship and song. All appreciate the friendships that Nicola and her volunteers have created in this activity.

Teapots meets every Wednesday, serving the local community particularly supporting those who are isolated or struggling with the cost-of-living-crisis. The team have also organised new entertainment, including, jokes and popular songs, which have been well received. Numbers are steadily rising. The Friday morning warm hub café at All Saints’ continues to thrive. The café and wrap around pastoral care is aimed at those struggling with isolation and the cost-of-living-crisis but it proves popular with a wide range of people. A huge thanks to the two teams that make these activities such a success.

The biggest success for St. Andrew’s continues to be the weekly outreach with St. Andy’s Hot Chocolate Giveaway every Thursday straight after school from 3pm to 4.30pm. This event continues to draw in 50 plus children and young people every week. A monthly Messy Church service has grown in popularity and brings many young children and their families into Church. Many thanks to volunteers who support this great activity.

The parish has continued to encourage individuals from both congregations to make their faith impact across the parish of Bedworth. Parishioners individual mission inputs involve active participation in hospital chaplaincy and prison fellowship, school governors in our three church schools, committee and practical roles in local charities, including the Nicholas Chamberlaine Trust and local Foodbanks. PCC coordinated activity has blended evangelistic aims alongside social impacts and this is manifested in a range of activities.

We continue to work closely with our church schools. With the expansion of the staff team, each school has a dedicated team working with the school. As a congregation we have taken new strides in our safeguarding awareness in line with the Church’s national policy developments. We are determined to make All Saints’ and St. Andrew’s even safer places for both children and adults; and gratefully recognise the work that our safeguarding team, led by Ruth Ison, have played in making great developments in how we deliver safeguarding training and practice.

Sadly, in October it was discovered as a result of a specially commissioned survey that the roof at St. Andrew’s was made of Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC) and as a result was required to close to services and public activities and events. Further surveys and work is required to establish if the building is viable in the future and this work is expected to be completed over the next 12 month. St. Andrew’s with all its activities has moved to the community centre next door where we have received a really warm welcome.

Pastoral Care

Our Pastoral Care Team (PCT) brings prayer, practical support and discipleship to many in their own homes or settings as we are a parish that are far more than just once a week service. The team continues with ten volunteers from All Saints’ and St. Andrew’s ensuring that Pastoral Care covers both churches. The team have supported people in a variety of ways:

We are so grateful to Mrs Kath Famer for her leadership and to have such committed Pastoral Care Team to work with, and also church members who have responded to calls in the community when asked to do so.

Staff Team

This year has seen several new members of staff join the parish team. Funding for these positions has largely been from successful grant applications. Alongside clergy, the staff team has included:

Governance Structures

Due to the size and complexity of the parish, the PCC delegates a range of its responsibilities. The PCC has seven subcommittees with delegated authority to undertake specific areas of responsibility. The committees are as follows;

Each have terms of reference and are overseen by the PCC. The PCC meet five times through the year receiving reports and updates from the subcommittees along with the minutes of meetings.

Risk Assessment

The PCC Trustees actively review the major risks which the charity faces on a regular basis and are working to create adequate operational financial reserves to cover risks by encouraging sacrificial giving and making participants aware of the financial wellbeing of the parish ministry. With outstanding and dedicated effort our Bookkeeper and Parish Office Administrator have continued to improve financial procedures providing the PCC with confidence in its financial situational analysis.

The parish has again faced financial challenges in the past 12 months with a forecast deficit that was largely reduced by a large back dated giftaid claim and raising funds for dedicated projects. Significant income has come from grant applications. Bodies that have awarded significant grants include the Nicholas Chamberlaine School Foundation and the Diocese of Coventry.

Careful consideration has been made to continue to reduce costs while not impairing the ministry of the parish; and the PCC believes that maintaining its quarterly and annual reviews of the controls over key financial systems will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. The trustees have also examined other operational and business risks which they face and confirm that they have established a new risk assessment system to mitigate the risks by providing a model and training to parishioners. This is particularly the case with safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults as the parish has maintained currency with the developing Church of England practice and procedure.

Reserves Policy

The Trustees have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the charity's needs. This is based on the charity's size and the level of financial commitments held. The trustees’ aim has been to ensure that the charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives, even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure. The PCC Trustees will endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily, and have successfully met their objectives in the informed use of the resources at their disposal.

Public Benefit

The charity acknowledges its requirement to demonstrate clearly that it must have charitable purposes or 'aims' for the public benefit. Details of how the charity has achieved this are detailed above. The Trustees confirm that they have paid due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit before deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

Safeguarding Report

You will be aware that safeguarding our children, young people and adults at risk in Bedworth Parish is a priority for the leadership team, the safeguarding team, the BPC Youth and Kids teams, and the Pastoral Care Team. We adhere to the Diocesan and National policies and guidelines. We have complied with our duty under Section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016. All children’s workers and those visiting and working with vulnerable adults require clearance from the DBS; and need to attend training; and have regular supervision. We ensure that unless this clearance is complete, they cannot undertake this work. Our Safeguarding records are regularly updated, and we strive to put into place all the latest requisites as quickly as possible.

Every effort is being made to help our children’s workers and helpers, and those who work with adults in a pastoral context to understand the necessity and the rigours of our Safeguarding Policy. We continue to work on risk assessments and keep our policies up to date. It is essential that we all continue to be vigilant in all matters relating to safeguarding the children and young people in Bedworth so that they may continue to grow in Christ in a safe environment.

Our current priorities are:

Mrs Ruth Ison continues to attend both St. Andrew’s and All Saints’, when possible, to build relationships with church members, to hear concerns, and offer support. Mrs Ruth Ison and Revd Dave Poultney meet regularly for supervision and to share ideas about implementing best practice across all volunteering roles, including at all points where church connects with the wider community. The office administrator has supported the parish by introducing the new guidelines for safer recruitment of volunteers, which includes applications forms, references and interviews.

Fabric Report

St. Andrew’s Church

There have been some significant improvements to the fabric at St. Andrew’s in the past year. The PCC approved the major upgrade to the front doors and to the fire doors. Many thanks to volunteers who helped to see this project through to completion. Every room at St. Andrew’s has been reordered. St. Andrew’s now has a well-managed resource room, equipped for every activity. The smaller hall has been emptied and turned into a prayer room, equipped with many comfortable chairs.

All Saints’ Church

The main focus of works at All Saints’ has been the installation of 50 solar panels and a large battery as part of the Nation Church of England Net Zero Demonstrator Churches initiative. A huge thanks to Christine Rigden for all the hard work to see this project to completion. The broken windows diamonds have been replaced throughout the church.

Lantern Church

Bedworth Parish were excited to welcome Revd Paul Foster with Kathryn and their children Jack and Grace to Bedworth. Revd Paul has been appointed as a Church Planter funded through a successful bid by Coventry Diocese to the Church of England’s Strategic Development Fund.

Lantern Church started its first Messy Church at St. Michael’s in January 2023. The church has been very popular with families who attend St. Michael’s school and regularly sees around 75 people attending each week. Oma Madumere and Marcus White joined the Lantern Church team in September as Apprentices. Kathryn Foster was also employed as Lantern Church’s Operations Manager. The church started a Warm Hub in the Pine Tree Centre which has led to the starting of a weekly service every Thursday in the centre with between 10 and 15 people attending each week.
