VICAR'S REPORT AGM 2023 As a team, we try and do all we can to live out our Church mission. vision and values.

Our community outreach numbers have dropped slightly during 2023 but are starting to recover in early 2024. Generally, across all our activity you can see that there has been ongoing growth. Whilst we take real encouragement from this. we are always seeking to reach more people for Jesus. Signs in earfy 2024 have been encouraging and the Easter baptisms were a tremendous moment for the Church to celebrate the change in people that the numbers point to. Our giving also continues to grow steadily. and this will help as our planned extemal grant revenue reduces.

Sundays (On Locatlon Worshlp) Our Sundays changed its pattern over the course of 2023 to: 1st Sunda 2nd Sunda 3rd Sunda 41h Sunda 51h Sunda Transform Worshi Transform Worshi Transform Worshi Famil Sunda Ba tism Sunda This has brought stability and balance to our Sundays. Community Outreaches (Flrst contact) You can also see that our number for Community outreaches is high. averaging 204 people per week over the year. At all these events people are receiving some kind of teaching, prayer or worship. This is a drop from last year however and is reflective of a shift in personnel, where Penny's curacy came to an end and the Intem programme was completed. Connect groups The planned re-launch of all Connect Groups around Easter, happened with greater clarity on the focus of 1-1's, leadership coaching and content for the groups. Progress is stsble but slower than expected - this is a key area for breakthrough in 2024. Please pray for the ongoing release of our people into their calling. Transforni Mlnds During 2023. our 'Transform Minds, group of counsellors have been able to offer help to those in our Community who need it. Also, we have been able to offer the use of our facilities to mental health charities and counselling services. to help the people of Widnes. 2023 Reflections Team As a Church leadership we are excited to steward all that Jesus is doing amongst us. This has been made simpler by employing a new, half-time ops person - Anna. Anna has brought tremendous energy and professionalism to her role and as a church we all benefit. Thanks. must be given to rim Mason, from the Liverpool Diocese, for acting as our 'stand in, Operations Manager during 2023, and setting a fimi foundation for Anna to build upon on his good work. We also have been able to employ Sarah Beaney 1 day a week as the volunteer manager. We have re￿iVed a grant for £30,000 for youth work and hope to appoint to thls role soon. There is a national shortage of youth workers and we really want to appoinl the right person so please pray for the upcoming recruitment pro￿sS.

l am so grateful for the ongoing dedication of so many volunteers who make Transfomi all it is. We seem to be a church where many people find a home and make a contribution. There have been many new Christians whose stories of finding life in Chrlst have stirred the hearts of the church and beyond. In short, I think it has been a year of transition for team members and consolidation in numbers. The word I have carried in a deep way is Hebrews 12.1-3: ..slnce we are surmunded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus. the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cmss, scorning its shame. and sat down at the right hand of the thmne of God. 3 Consider him who endured such opposltlon from slnners. so that you will not gmw weary and lose heart. We have a unique contribution to make to the people of Widnes and by his grace, we've been able to see him at work. This is only a glimpse of what he wants to do. so let's fix our eyes on him, throw off the brokenness and discouragements and run the ra￿ of 2024 with real expectancy. 2024 - Sabbatlcallstudy Leave After 10 years in Widnes. the moment has come for me to take a sabbatical. This is planned for May 20th_ Sept 2nd During this time the team will lead the Church with ongoing oversight from Tim Montgomery as Project Director. l am personally very grateful to our team of staff and volunteers and who have made it possible for this to happen. My focus will be the development of leaders in a setting like ours and I've got a huge backlog of reading and visits to other churches I am excited to get stuck into! Reverend Gregory Sharples Vicar

WARDENS ANNUAL REPORT 202312024 It has been a busy year for Maintenan￿ and upkeep of Transform Widnes church sites. We have a Building and Maintenance team in place now. The team meet weekly to discusslresolve issues. St Paul's have been plagued with an infestation of rats. We employed a company (Emeris) to take care of this. Rat baits have been placed in relevant areas and so far, this is working. Emeris is under contract with us until end 2024. St Paul's garden is coming along nicely, and the hope is that we will eventually be growing produ￿ to support Long Loaf etc. A Silver Birch tree was removed to give space for compost and to planl new trees. We received a grant from Halton Borough Council to undertake this work. Lads from the Unit by The Eight Towers have recently taken an interest in working on St Paul's Peace Garden and are enjoying keeping it tidy. Regretfully the garden has recently been attacked by vandals. Felicity Price has contacted our PCSO, Rachel Owen. Rachel confimied she would patrol when next on duty and would also contact Halton Council to check rf CCTV covers this area. Big clean-up of St Paul's took place end of November. It was gre8t to see all the volunteers working together to make our Church shiny clean for Christmas period. This is set to be an annual, if not bi-annual event. St John's floorwas professionally cleaned early January. The Kitchen in church has been modemised. There was a naggiro leak in the roof which has been repaired and so far, all good. Thanks to Building and maintenan￿ Team, Sarah Beaney and all volunteers who devote time and effort for the maintenance and well-being of Transfonm. Making happy spa￿S for worship.

PRESCHOOL REPORT St John's Preschool is not for profit Ofsted registered preschool (Registration no. RP520953, Setting Referen￿ No. EY245131). The preschool is overseen by a volunteer delegated sub-committee of the PCC. The preschool is a 'pa¢k-away setting. utilising the main hall, kitchen. office and garden in St John's Church Centre between 8.30 and 4pm on weekdays. Claire Speakman is the Preschool Manager responsible for the day-to-day operations and managing the seven preschool employees. The preschool made a £26.gk operating loss in 2023 (and £46k less compared to 2022 - after adjustments for 2021) with an overall loss in 2023 of £25.9k. Cash reserves reduced from £82.3k to £56.8k. The loss included planned investment from the reserves into improving the garden space following Ofsted recommendations and the redecoration of the setting, totalling £12.7k (an increased spend on repairs and maintenance of £1.6k on 2022). In addition. there was a planned reduction in the preschool intake of children. and therefore income (down £6.5k on 2022). driven mainly by the increasing numbers of children with special educational needs in 2022 and the need to reorganise staffiro structures to accommodate future additional needs. However. Ihe biggest impact on the preschool funds has been the increase in the National Minimum Wage (92p per hour) and the subsequent relative staff wage increases, the increased employer NICS and pension costs, an increase of £34.8k on 2022. In addition, the rent contribution to Church finances towards the running of the ntre (utilities, insurance, cleaning. extemal HR services elc) increased by £5.5k in 2023. In 2024, the preschool is planning to break even, mainly by increasing the intake in the number of children to better match the staff:child ratios. now that a new, more resilient, staffing structure is in place. In addition, the amount of grant re￿iVed per child from the Local Authority is due to increase, in recognition of rising costs plus the preschool has no further plans for investment in the setting during 2024. However, the welcomed increase of the National Minimum Wage of £1.02 per hour will prove a challenge alongside anticipated relative staff wage increases. Clare Bedford Preschool Chair

SAFEGUARDING ANNUAL REPORT 2023 Safeguarding Concerns The last year has been busy with several different safeguarding concems followed up and resolved satisfactorily or refe￿ed on lo other relevant authorities. In all cases advice has been sought and re￿iVed from the Di0￿san Safeguarding Team, to whom l am very grateful. Safor Recruitment As new staff have been employed at Church and Pre-school they have been through Ihe Safer Recruitment process, completing DBS and the appropriate level of Safeguarding Training. Since the appointment of a Volunteer Manager in 2023, a firmer policy for recruitment of volunteers is now being implemented. To enable current volunteers to continue volunteering there is a period of gra￿ whereby those who have not done the required safeguarding training will be given time to do it. Any new volunteers will need to do their training before they commence volunteering. Records of the training will be maintsined centrally by the Volunteer Manager going forward. The collation of past records and current will be quite a volume of work. I will need to know which volunteers cannot access the training online so that I can arrange an in-person session as soon as possible, provided by the Diocesan Safeguarding Team.

KIDS CHURCHrrRANSFORM TOTSIHOLIDAY ACTIVITY What a great year we had in 202311 Transform Kids continues to grow and it has been wonderful to see the children deepen their friendships with each other and with Jesus. Kids Church continues to run alongside our main Servi￿ on a Sunday. At the end of 2023. we made the decision to move Kids Church from St John's to St Paul's Church Hall. It was a difficult decision as we were concemed about the limited space in the hall compared to St Johns. However. Praise the Lord it seems to be working welll! Space is still an issue. but We have been able to think creatively around this. It has been wonderful to see new families join our church and for the children to be getting plugged into the children's work at Transfonn. We ran two Family Hangouts within 2023 during the Easter and Summer Holidays. We received funding from the Holiday Activity Fund (Halton Borough Council) towards this. These are always great ways of serving the families in our community. Transform Tots continues to thrive on a Monday moming, often getting around 45 children. plus their parents every week. We continue to have great feedback from the parents and various organisations who drop in to see us. We have a wonderful group of volunteers who help with Tots and Kids Church. who se￿8 faithfully week in week out. It has been so great seeing the leam grow in confidence, taking on more responsibility and leadership roles, running groups etc this has been a huge help to me as the Kids and Family Worker. especially as our children's ministry continues to grow. l am so grateful to God for all His continued faithfulness within our Kids work. Please continue to pray for the children in our church, that they will discover more about God's incredible love for them and that the seeds that are being sewn, will grow in their little hearts and bear great fruit.

Financlal Rlsk The PCC receives routine upd8tes on the cash balan￿ of all funds at every PCC meeting. and a full report as part of Ihe annual accounts and APCM. Urgent and in-budget expenditure is discussed and agreed by the Stsnding Committee, whilst non-urgent and out of budget expenditure is agreed by the PCC. Collections are always counted by people. all payments are authorised by two people via Expense Plus. Banking of Income is ordinarily managed by the Churchwardens. The Church holds Ecclesiastical general insurance to cover its key liabilities and risks. Reserves Policy It is PCC policy to endeavour to maintain a balance on unrestricted funds that equates to around three months of church workers, salaries, £20,259. It is held to smooth out fluctuations in cash flow and to meet emergencies. The PCC is aware that major repairs to the church tower are required and that the main church roof will need replacing in the next 5-10 years and we will aim to agree and set a regular amount to save towards the costs going forward. CONCLUSIONS In 2023, for the first time that I can remember. as a PCC we managed to produce a budget for the financial year. Excluding the St Johns Preschool accounts. for the 2023 year we budgeted for a deficit of £53,053. This was based on an Income budget of £246,194 and an Expenditure Budget of £299,247. Our Actual totals for 2023 were as follows.. Actual 2023 Income - £277,470. Actual 2023 Expenditure £302.272 An Actual deficit of £24,802. In 2022 the deficit was £26,721.56, so a slighl improvement. Although this result was much better than anticipated, we slill need to reverse this Irend of our expenditure being greater that our income. Our unrestricted (General) funds expenditure exceed our unrestricted (General) funds income by £2,997. Our restricted funds expenditure exceeded our restricted funds income by £21,806. We still rely heavily on grant funding to resou￿ our staff and volunteers involved in providing much of our ex￿lIent missional work, and a number of these grants come to an end in 2024, which will put added pressure onto our finances. On the whole, in 2023 our giving income has been very good. Our total giving + gift aid (excluding grants) for grew from £101.050 in 2022, to £124,508 (230/0) in 2023. The Parish Giving Scheme continues to be a blessing in helping us to budgel better and the amount given by Ihis method has also grown in 2023 by £2,492 to £86,849. PGS accounts for nearly 70Q/o of our voluntary giving. Steve Shuttleworth Treasurer St John & St Paul Widnes (Transform Widnes) 15-
