Public Benefft
When plannin8 our activities for the year, we have considered the Commission's guidance on public benefit
and, in partScular. the supplementary guidance on charitie5 for the advancement of religion. 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 thelr knowledge and trust in Jesus.
Provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish.
Mission and outreach work.
To facilitate this work it is important that we maintain the fabric of the Church of St. Catherine's and the
Telegraph Hill Centre. Following the year end, in February and March 2026, we were sorry to lose three
members of staff at the Centre including the manager. The church has organised interim staffing so the
cent￿'S adivities will continue without interruption pending recruitment of permanent replacements later
in the year.
Financlal review of 2025
Treasure￿$ Report
During 2025 the PCC continued to receive a steady income from our portfolio of rental properties that form
part of the Telegraph Hill Centre complex- these cover 2 studios for artists, one residential Ilat, the Hill
Station community café, and the Be gright nursery.
Previously completed rent renegotiation and lease extension for the Hill Station and the nursery* meant
substantially higher ￿ntS flowing in from the nursery through 202S.
We have expanded our hosting of other church groups on Sundays after our own services have finished.
This brings in a significant income stream. Occasional hires of the church eg for music rehearsal space have
also provided additional income. The utilisation of the rooms for hire within the Telegraph Hill Centre has
also been 800d.
Voluntary stewardship income to the church remains strong, wlth the great majority receivèd under bank
standlng order and therefore reliable.
General expenditure ha5 been faSrly modest, with Ifortunatelyl no major building works needlng to be paid
for. The church acquired a second hand electronic organ, and upgraded the heating controls forthe church
heating whlch had malfunctitined.
Cash balances remain adequate. typically between £80,000 and £1(￿,000. in part because the anticipated
expenditure on the substantial building work on the boundary wall did not arise durin8 the year. We also
received around £IO.000 Gift aid claimed from 2023.

mber20
We have embarked on urgent work called for in our recent quinquennial inspertion but any Substantial
expenditure will only occur in 2026.
During 2025 we paid in full our Parish Support Fund contribution of £64,500 and raised this to £66,(￿fOr
2026.
Resems
It is PCC policy to try to maintain a balance on unrestricted fund whlch equates to at leastthree months
unrestricted payments. This is equivalent to £35K. It Ss held to smooth out fluctuations in cash flow and to
meet emergencies. We have met this target.
Risk assessment and Safeguardlng
The PCC regularly identrfies and reviews major risks facing the charity and have put measures in place to
mitigate them. The PCC follows guidelines for Safeguarding and Risk Assessment laid down by the Diocese of
Southwark. and benefits from personnel with work experience of safeguarding children.
Volunteers
We would like to thank all the volunteers who work so hard to make our church the lively and vibrant
communwty it is. In particular we want to mention our churchwardens David Whlsson and Stephen Tomkins
who have worked so tirelessly on our behalf.
