## **’ St. Andrew s Concert Series 2024** _Thank you to the performers, and all those who supported the concerts, and to our parishioners who helped on the evenings_ _Parish of St Andrew’s, Kingsbury_ _Page 5 of 16_ _Annual Report 2024_ ## **Aims and Purposes** St. Andrew’s Parochial Council (PCC) has the responsibility of cooperating with the incumbent in promoting throughout the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church: pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The PCC is also specifically responsible for the maintenance of the church site, on which stands the Church and church hall. The church building originally stood in Wells Street, in central London, and was consecrated on the 2nd February, 1847. It closed its doors on Easter Sunday 1931 because the surrounding area, once residential, had become offices and warehouses so the congregation evaporated. The Church looked set to be demolished but there was an outcry at the idea of destroying such a beautiful building containing so many items of outstanding craftsmanship. A proposal was made to move St. Andrew’s from the West End to the fast-growing area of Wembley and Kingsbury, served by the new Metropolitan Line, which needed a bigger church. St. Andrew’s was demolished stone by stone and transported the ten miles to southern Kingsbury. The entire process of moving the Church to its new site took three years, although the actual rebuild was carried out in twelve months. St. Andrew’s was reconsecrated on October 13th, 1934 by Arthur Foley Winnington Ingram, Bishop of London from 1901-39. The church was designed by Dawkes and contains work by some of the top sculptors and craftsmen of the day. It is mentioned in Nicholas Pevsner's noted series _The Buildings of England_ . and has a Grade 2* listing. The church hall, which sits behind the Church on the east side, was built in 1959 by a member of the congregation who was in the construction industry. 2017 saw an extensive and much needed refurbishment of the hall. It is currently used on weekdays by a local private nursery. An Irian support meeting meets twice a week in the evening; the Wembley History Society holds its monthly meeting in the Hall on a Friday; a Portuguese speaking congregation from the Seventh Day Adventist Church uses the hall every Saturday and on other occasions throughout the year; a Church of England Church plant, the Naya Jivan Church, who worship mainly in Hindi and Urdu, meet in the Hall late Sunday afternoons. On Sundays the local Romanian Orthodox community who worship in the old parish church in the churchyard, have access to the hall’s toilet facilities. The local Ward police, councillors and others hold a quarterly meeting in the hall. The churchyard lies to the south and south-east with over 2200 burials, including over 30 war graves. In 2017 it was officially declared ‘closed’ by the Ministry of Justice, as there is no space for new burials, and as such, Brent Council are now responsible for its maintenance. The area continues to be under Faculty jurisdiction. The PCC owns a flat, originally purchased as curates’ accommodation in 1986 and currently rented to private tenants on an annual basis. Basic maintenance and repairs have been ongoing during this year, overseen by a local letting and management agency on our behalf. ## **Objectives and Activities** The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of our community at St. Andrew’s. The PCC maintains an overview of worship 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 our activities for the year, we have considered the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, 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, learning about the Gospel, and developing their knowledge and trust in Jesus; through provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish and through Missionary and outreach work. To facilitate this work it is important that we maintain the fabric of the Church of St. Andrew’s and the church hall. _Parish of St Andrew’s, Kingsbury_ _Page 6 of 16_ _Annual Report 2024_ ## **The Church Fabric** The incumbent and the Churchwarden continue to keep a keen eye on the fabric of the church. With the assistance of our architect, John Scott, they work to maintain the Grade 2* listed building, ensuring that routine maintenance is carried out. The logbook is kept up to date. ## _BOUNDARY WALL_ In early June a car, on its way to drop children at the Nursery, collided with the north end of the front boundary wall. This meant a rebuild of approximately 8 feet of the wall. This work was covered by our insurance. ## _WATER INGRESS TO THE ROOF_ The slow deteriorating state of the roof remains a matter of serious concern and one of the major issues facing St Andrews. Ad hoc repairs are made when necessary. Water is coming in through the roof at the back of the church above the gallery (at the point where the nave roof meets the spire). Access is difficult so scaffolding will probably be needed. It is estimated that repairs to the roof and spire will cost an estimated one and a half million pounds. Water has also come in through the roof of the Nursery, caused by corrosion in a stopcock in the cold-water tank. This was repaired by members of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, who meet here on Saturdays. Some redecoration will probably be necessary. ## _SECURITY_ Another major issue, and of growing concern, is security. Several local churches have suffered thefts and break-ins, and the Vicarage was broken into in early December while Fr Jason was conducting a service in church. This followed an earlier attempted break-in. An emergency meeting of the Standing Committee approved the installation of security cameras at the Vicarage - the matter and expense was then taken over by the Diocese, who are responsible for the Vicarage itself. ## _ELECTRICS_ The electrics are checked frequently. An issue has arisen with the replacement of the main Nave lightbulbs when they fail, due to the age of the fittings and the fact that suitable bulbs are no longer manufactured. Replacements are being sourced. ## _DRAINS AND GULLIES_ These are checked and cleaned out annually as part of a diocesan maintenance programme. ## _THE ORGAN_ Further minor repairs were made to the organ. Eventually it will have to undergo a major overhaul, but this will be very costly. The estimate we have had is £70,000. ## _ROUTINE MAINTENANCE_ Checks were carried out in January on the fire extinguishers in both the church and church hall and necessary replacements made. The lightning conductor was tested in May so as to ensure it conforms to the required standards. In September checks were made to the boiler and the hall heating system. The church water-heater was repaired In July. Earlier in the year the heater was serviced in the Nursery office. In March, a new side and kitchen door was installed in the hall. The font-lid mechanism in the baptistery had its annual check in February and conforms to the health and safety regulations. The logbook is updated regularly. Electrical tests were carried out in both the hall and the church in January. Checks were made in October to the church hall boiler and gas system. _Parish of St Andrew’s, Kingsbury_ _Page 7 of 16_ _Annual Report 2024_ ## _MANAGEMENT OF THE BUILDING_ A management consultancy has drawn up plans for the future redevelopment of St Andrews. Thanks to the Rekindling project, we should, in the next couple of years, be better able to manage a heritage building and be in a position to apply for funds for a major capital project involved in overseeing the repairs to St Andrew’s roof and spire. These are estimated to cost at least a million and a half pounds. ## **Financial Review** Our Honorary Treasurer, Michelle Phillips, makes the following observations on the 2024 accounts: ## _INCOME_ St. Andrew’s continues to receive a regular income from the congregation by quarterly/monthly/weekly (planned giving) standing orders and plate collections. This equates to £35k of our annual income a decrease of 7% compared to last year. However, April saw the introduction of digital giving at services, which in turn increased overall giving at services by 25%. As a result of planned giving contributions received during 2023, we were able to recover Tax through Gift Aid (HMRC) totalling £16,456. Other 'unrestricted' income received, include donations from the Romanian Church. The Hall continues to generate a regular monthly income from the Nursery as well as rental income from various church and community groups. Total generated from hall lettings totalled in excess of £51k. Repairs for the Hall has been minimal this year. The flat continues to pay for itself through the rental income; once again the property has been occupied throughout this financial year with no vacant months. The flat is managed by a management company, with the cost of their services and maintenance, the flat continues to be a viable asset. There were no major maintenance bills this year associated with its upkeep. ## _EXPENDITURE_ Running costs associated with the Church, Hall and Flat were as expected, there were no major repairs in respect of our assets. Due to an appeal from the Diocese (and with the agreement of the PCC) St. Andrews' contribution to the Common Fund was increased from £52k to £60k per annum. In October 2024 a part-time Parish Administrator was employed, increasing the 'Clergy and Staffing costs' by £2067 for the period. Mortgage: Payments made this financial year totalled £9062.28, with an outstanding balance of £105,732. The remaining term on our mortgage with the Kingdom Bank is 22 years, 9 months. Financial details of all Income and expenditure can be found within the published reports. ## _CHARITY OF THE MONTH_ |_CHARITY OF THE MONTH_|_CHARITY OF THE MONTH_|_CHARITY OF THE MONTH_|_CHARITY OF THE MONTH_||| |---|---|---|---|---|---| |The Charity of the Month scheme ran throughout the year:|||||| |**Jan**|Bp of Willesden's Mission Fund|117.47|**July**|Sightsavers|181.83| |**Feb**|Guide Dogs for the Blind|221.86|**Aug**|Alzheimer’s Society|214.44| |**Mar**|Friends of the Holy Land|171.59|**Sept**|Sickle Cell|210.24| |**April**|Lupus UK|162.08|**Oct**|London Air Ambulance|171.18| |**May**|Christian Aid|197.96|**Nov**|Brain Tumour|252.73| |**June**|Additional Curates Society|187.34|**Dec**|St. Luke’s Hospice|84.36| |||||**TOTAL**|**2,173.08**| In comparison to previous years: 2023 £2,901.44 2021 £2,528.34 2022 £1,898.08 2020 £1,588.88 _Parish of St Andrew’s, Kingsbury_ _Page 8 of 16_ _Annual Report 2024_ In addition, the PCC made additional contributions to the monthly collections for the Bishop of London’s Mission Fund (£482.53) and St. Luke’s Hospice (£65.64). Between them, the parishioners and PCC donated funds for: Friends of the Holy Land (£328.41), Christians Against Poverty (PCC £200), Macmillan Cancer Support (£274.19), DEC Middle East Collection (£178.00 & PCC £122), the collection at the Carol Service for the Jeel al Amal Children’s Home in Bethany (£304.04 + PCC £195.96). ## **Reserves Policy** The Church’s reserves policy is to hold £120,000 in cash reserves, if possible, given the unpredictability of maintenance costs on such a substantial heritage building. Since 2019, the church has consistently achieved this, and its cash assets are currently over £170,000. However, it is estimated that in the current financial climate, the cash reserves will be reduced to just over £84,000 at the lowest point in the next five years and the church will need to rebuild its reserves in future. ## **Volunteers** We would like to thank all the volunteers who work so hard to make our church the lively, welcoming and vibrant community it is, particularly in a difficult year. A large number of people give of their time in support of the life of the church and all aspects of its worship and management. ## **Safeguarding children and vulnerable adults** The PCC has complied with the duty under section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016, in relation to having due regard to House of Bishops’ guidance regarding safeguarding children and vulnerable adults. DBS checks are in place for the incumbent, the Pastoral Assistant, the Junior Church Leader and the Safeguarding Officer. The Safeguarding Officer, who has undergone the necessary diocesan training, is Claudette Graham. The Children’s Advocate is Diana Ohene-Darko. The Safeguarding Officer meets regularly with the Incumbent and Churchwarden to discuss any matters of concern. Advice is also taken from the Diocese of London Safeguarding Team as well as the local council social services. ## **Structure, Governance and Management** The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. At St. Andrew’s the membership of the PCC consists of the incumbent, churchwarden(s), two deanery synod representatives and members elected by those who are on the electoral roll of the church. All those who regularly attend our services 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 church monies are spent. The full PCC meets as and when required (now that the minimal requirement for meetings has been removed). The PCC appoints a Standing Committee which can meet between full meetings of the PCC. It has power to transact the business of the PCC between its meetings, subject to any specific directions issued by the PCC. Those appointed in this year are the Fr Jason (the PCC Chairman), Gloria Williams (the Churchwarden), Mary Vávra (the PCC Secretary), plus Christine Madekwe and Wendy Richards. Minutes of its meetings are formally received by the next full meeting of the PCC. Copies of the minutes of both bodies are kept at the charity’s correspondence address. _Parish of St Andrew’s, Kingsbury_ _Page 9 of 16_ _Annual Report 2024_ ## **A vision for St Andrew’s Kingsbury** _Following a workshop and discussion with the PCC on 8th February 2023, during the Rekindling Project business planning process, the following vision_ In the next five years, St Andrew’s Kingsbury will be known locally as a Church that stands in the centre of the local community of Welsh Harp and Kingsbury that connects its three pillars of faith, public and heritage. It will be a stable building and financially viable, a place of: - engagement and connectivity with the communities around - warmth, prayer and contemplation - heritage that has something inclusive for everyone - purpose for future generations _Parish of St Andrew’s, Kingsbury_ _Page 10 of 16_ _Annual Report 2024_ _Parish of St Andrew’s, Kingsbury Page 11 of 16 Annual Report 2024_ _Parish of St Andrew’s, Kingsbury Page 12 of 16 Annual Report 2024_ _Parish of St Andrew’s, Kingsbury Page 13 of 16 Annual Report 2024_ _Parish of St Andrew’s, Kingsbury Page 14 of 16 Annual Report 2024_ _Parish of St Andrew’s, Kingsbury Page 15 of 16 Annual Report 2024_ _Parish of St Andrew’s, Kingsbury Page 16 of 16 Annual Report 2024_ ## ## ## ## ## ## ## |||Note|2024|2023| |---|---|---|---|---| ||・||£|| |Tangible fixed assets||4|300,000|300,000| |Current Assets||||| |GiftAid tax refundreceivable|||5,500|10,880| |Cash at bank and on hand|||160,630
