## **Annual Report of the PCC for the year ended 31 December 2024**
The Parochial Church Council (the "PCC") of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Andrew, Stoke Newington presents its report together with the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.
## Parochial Church Council Objectives
The PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the Priest-in-Charge, The Rev'd Charis Enga, in:
- promoting, in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical;
- considering and discussing matters concerning the Church of England or any other matters of religious or public interest;
- making known, and putting into effect, any provision made by Diocesan or Deanery Synod, but without prejudice to the powers of the PCC in any matter;
- raising such matters as the PCC considers appropriate with Deanery or Diocesan Synod; and
- managing the church property and environs in the parish.
## **Membership**
Members of the PCC are either ex-officio or elected by the Annual Parochial Church Meeting in accordance with the Church Representation Rules 2006.
## **Governance**
The PCC is a corporate body established by the Church of England. It is constituted and governed by the Parochial Church Councils (Powers) Measure 1956 (as amended) and the Church Representation Rules 2006.
## **Public Benefit**
The Trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission. St Andrew’s benefits the public by way of regular worship that is open to all, the provision of sacred space for personal prayer and contemplation, pastoral work, teaching Christianity through sermons, courses and small groups, and promoting the whole mission of the church through its assistance to older people, parents and children, and others in the parish.
St Andrew’s encourages community use of the premises and continues to welcome people to drop by at opening times to visit. St Andrew's provides visitors to the church with a free leaflet which introduces them to the stained glass and murals. A more detailed guide is also available should visitors require more information. A Children’s Guide was created and produced in 2018 as a result of the National Lottery Heritage Fund support in 2018.
The church building was open on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays with ‘Open Church’ when anyone can come to enjoy the space, peace, beauty and heritage.

A chalkboard pavement sign, along with regularly updated adverts on the external railings publicizing upcoming events and opening times, continue to increase the number of passersby who drop-in and raise the visibility of the church in the local area.
We have had a full and diverse year as we are beginning to put into action our mission: To walk humbly with God by focusing on God’s love through prayer, praise, learning and fellowship; To love kindness by striving to love our neighbours and share God’s loving community through creating community in our neighbourhood; To do justice by seeking to listen for God’s radical inclusion and love and help people find their voice and power.
This year we have been blessed with seeing change and growth in new and different areas particularly with our children, families, schools work and young people both in the church and the wider community. As we have found, year on year since being part of Organising for Growth, the mission initiative for church growth to harness the power of community organising in churches, we have seen many good things happen: signs of growth, new shoots in spiritual depth, growing fellowship, new community connections, new worshippers, and growing confidence in emerging leaders. In particular, this year, we have seen our community connections with our local school Sir Thomas Abney blossom, and we had witnessed the power of youth work to enable well-being and flourishing of teenagers facing exams, helping us to share the love Christ through loving service to those in need.
## Worship
This year, building on the year before, we have continued to see more new faces and families joining us. The cost of living crisis has continued to have a stark effect on our congregation members, with more people often relocated against their will and meaning they now live too far away to worship with us regularly. Others are taking on more jobs and under such strain that they struggle to find time to attend regularly at church. However, despite the hardships we face as an area, we continued to see a real deepening of other families' faith development and discipleship as children and adults grow in their leadership roles and gain confidence in Christ.
Like last year, First Sunday All Age Eucharist and Church Lunch continued to grow in strength and number and we saw families increasing their frequency of church attendance as a result.
We continued to meet for the new Seeking Stillness contemplative mid-week service and during Lent a group gathered online to read and discuss Selina Stone’s Tarry Awhile which led to 121s and a group to try out Tarrying (a Pentecostal Caribbean tradition of prayer) and we found appetite for a new weekly prayer group that gathered for many months. This prayer group coincided with the start of the Youth Hub and it proved vital as way of underpinning this work in prayer to sustain and equip the youth work.
As the year went by, we saw new faces joining, and this was due to Community events, better communications, more 121s locally, more provision for children and families to worship, and developing discipleship. We had two baptisms. And we joined with other churches to start to dream about a future Anglo-Catholic Youth Minster for North Hackney
4
churches and we together created with young people (including those from St Andrews) two Youth Gatherings with Holy Communion, Fun and Food.
Finally, the Christmas season was concluded with a glorious carol service – with no less than 3 community choirs! Hackney Songworks, Morris Folk Choir and a fabulous scratch community choir of all ages run by Michelle for the congregation and neighbours. We also had our annual an interactive storytelling worship Christmas Nativity and Midnight Mass and Christmas Day – so a real mix of joyous worship that was enjoyed by all.
## Electoral Roll
In 2024, the electoral roll increased to 46 (2021: 28; 2022:33; 2023:38). Which shows 64% growth in 3 years.
## Community
In 2024, we took our church-based community work to the next level, with great thanks to many key people in the congregation who stepped into leadership and dedication with this, including Renee, Ivan, Marcia R, to name a few. We had half-termly after-school drop-in events for families such as pancake party, spring and summer craft-ernoons, and a pumpkin party which were held for people of all faiths and none.
Our intern/apprentice Renee successfully won a bid for funding from Near Neighbours for opening a weekly Youth hub drop-in for Wellbeing for people of all faiths and none. She put into practice her learning of community organising, through having 121 chats with youth and local adults to create a leadership team and to hear what young people locally wanted to create a weekly space. This was well attended week on week for the summer term and gave much needed respite from exams with opportunities for creative work like painting, fun like making slime and CV and skills training from experts who were found locally, again through the power of 121s and listening.
Revd Charis continued to engage with local neighbours and community institutions at council-run neighbourhood meetings.
The Walled Garden interfaith/community with neighbours on the local estate went from strength to strength and we are thankful for our Church-based Community Organiser, Keisha Nembhard as well as other neighbours for their dedication with this project. It also was a much need place for gathering and connection and worked as a neutral safe space for when times were tough or conversations were needed across communities.
We played our part in Stamford Hill Unites, doing listening around the issue of rubbish on our streets and we were part of the listening campaign of door-to-door knocking, surveys, a local meeting with representatives of the council from the recycling and waste department and local councillors. Then questions were taken to a Hackney Council public meeting to continue to put pressure on working with our local people on this issue.

We took part as a congregation in many things as partners in Hackney Citizens, including the Mayoral Assembly and we became a Voter Registration Champion for the area, enabling congregation members and folk in the street to have access and information on how to register to vote, help with getting voter id for those who needed it, and reminding people that their voice matters and we felt honoured to play our part locally and were recognised by our local community for acting for justice.
We had yet another successful Allens Gardens event and were thrilled to be a stall holder and also delighted to see the growth in leadership of those in our community who were able to pull together to secure funding and run a successful event for which the Mayor of Hackney attended and we had visiting choirs and groups support.
The prominence of St Andrew’s at this event led to several wonderful things including having the Hackney Songworks Choir come and be part of our Christmas Carol Service (see above) but also people connected with each other and came to Revd Charis with an idea to run a Winter Fair at St Andrews as a fundraiser and profile-raising activity. This dream turned into a reality due to the hard work of several non-church-going community-minded people who are passionate about having St Andrews at the heart of the area again. A wonderful Winter Fair took place in November with extraordinary generosity from local people, seeing a glorious mix of stall holders of all ages and backgrounds, a wonderful bar supported by local business Mascara Bar and wonderful acts of music and poetry given for free by local groups and promoted and supported financially by local business LocationLocation. It was a much needed fundraiser and wonderful way to connect with especially the 20s30s group locally and others who have never been into St Andrews ever before.
We continued to work closely with the Centre of Community and Theology (CTC). And we were honoured to be invited to be interviewed and showcased in the beautiful report Organising for Growth (2024). The launch was brilliant and we were thrilled to be part of sharing our learning at such an important event for the future of the Church.
And finally we are thrilled to now be partnering with Hackney Foodbank to offer Wednesdays as being the North Hackney Distribution centre using the church nave. We are thrilled to offer warmth, food and hospitality to our neighbours, meeting new people and supporting our friends who we know in our community. Many guests have commented on being thankful for having a peaceful, welcoming and prayerful environment to enable people to reconnect with their faith and have conversations about the meaning of life while waiting for much needed support in food for the week.
The church’s commitment to continuing to extend community links saw a large increase in community engagement. Alongside the strategic work to integrate and create pathways for people to engage in new forms of worship, St Andrews continued to become more visible in the community in 2024. Yet again, it dramatically raised its profile locally and saw new faces in church worship.

## Building and Fabric
The PCC takes seriously its responsibility to ensure the church building is a safe environment and uses health and safety specialists, Precision Safety, to carry out annual safety inspections of the church.
Petra, who helps with church administration, and Revd Charis worked with Ivan James to continue to work through the recommendations from the Archdeacon’s Trinnenial Inspection and Area Dean Andrew Wilson was encouraging about the year-progress meeting. Lettings coming to us via Sharesy seemed to go well and we give our gratitude to Ivan for opening and shutting for every hall letting plus Petra for the liaising and viewings with each booking.
Sadly our church was broken in to in November 2024, a church door lock was smashed, nursery valuables were stolen as was our new PA system, plus a lot of mess made. Luckily nothing more was taken and our insurance have agreed to cover the losses and the cost of fixing our doors and increasing our security. Around the same time our boilers stopped working, due to an electrical fault but they were just out of warrantee, so we had to get them repaired in November.
On a brighter note were delighted to be supported by the diocese for funding for pruning our many church trees and this successfully was completed in September 2024
## **Financial Review**
The total receipts for the year ended 31 December 2024 were £67,686 (2023: 54,882). The total payments for the year ended 31 December 2024 were £55,922 (2024: £54,856). Therefore we had a surplus of over £11,000 which is most surplus we have secured in known history (at least 10 years). The income from the nursery, extra lettings, fundraising and good budgeting enabled us to increase in payments for Common Fund in 2024 by over 40% to £21000. All loans have been repaid.
## **Reserves Policy**
It is PCC policy to maintain a balance on unrestricted funds (if possible) and enough funds in the general fund bank account in order to meet immediate liabilities and manage cash flow. At present this level is thought to be a figure of £8,000.
## **Diocesan Commitment to St Andrew’s**
The Diocese of London recognises the missional importance of this parish and is fully committed to supporting its future. This is shown through the resources the Diocese is investing in St Andrew's, including providing a permanent Vicar, through devoting diocesanlevel resource and skills.

## **Statement of PCC Members’ Responsibilities**
The PCC members are responsible for preparing the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
Charity law and Church regulations require the PCC members to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the PCC and of its income and expenditure for the financial year.
- In doing so, the PCC members are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- follow applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the PCC will continue in operation.
The PCC members are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the PCC to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 and the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the PCC and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The financial statements were approved by the Parochial Church Council on and signed on its behalf by
Rev'd Charis Enga Date: 22[nd] July 2025 Vicar of St Andrew, Stoke Newington and Chair of the Parochial Church Council

## **Independent Examiner’s report to the PCC of St Andrew, Stoke Newington on the Accounts for the year ended 31[st] December 2024**
## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and the examiner**
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts, and they consider that an audit is not required for the year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:
Examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act
to follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of the 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 these records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required for 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 matter has come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
Accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act, or the accounts do not accord with the accounting records
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.
