History
Christ Church Endcliffe was a church plant from Christ Church Fulwood (charity number 1134057) in 2009 which continued to be legally and financially part of Christ Church Fulwood until 31 December 2017. Endcliffe established a new legal entity ‘Christ Church Endcliffe CIO’, charity number 1173584, on 27 June 2017, which was granted a Bishops’ Mission Order on 1 July 2017
Objects
The objects of the charity are the advancement of the Christian faith for the benefit of the public especially within the city of Sheffield and in such parts of the United Kingdom, or the world, as the Trustees of the charity may from time to time think fit and to fulfil such other purposes which are exclusively charitable according to the law of England and Wales and connected with the charitable work of the charity.
We have clear convictions based on the truths revealed by God in the Bible, but those attending on a Sunday do not necessarily have to be convinced Christians. We also run courses specifically designed for those wanting to find out more about the Christian faith.
We love to welcome visitors who are exploring the Christian faith. Various events take place to make it as easy as possible for the church family to bring friends to hear about the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Three basic characteristics describe us:
We are a Christian Church
We believe in one God who has revealed himself supremely through his Son, Jesus Christ. It is only through faith in Jesus, trusting his death on the cross for our sins and his new resurrection life that we can come to know God and become part of his kingdom.
We are an Evangelical Church
We believe that the Bible is God’s authoritative word and is therefore the definitive guide for us in all matters of faith and conduct. Furthermore, we believe that the Spirit of God achieves the work of God through the word of God, and so the study and exposition of the Bible will be the means by which God will transform the lives of individuals and the church body as a whole

Trustees’ report - continued For the year ended 31 December 2023
We are an Anglican Church
We are part of the Church of England, and hold to the great truths that were rediscovered at the time of the Reformation, including the sovereignty of God in salvation, justification by faith alone and salvation in Christ alone. However, we have church members from many different denominational backgrounds and we unite under Christ, not under one particular denominational banner.
We meet our objects by setting our vision in four main ways:
-
GLORIFY GOD by living in the light of who he is and what he has done for us, and helping others to do the same.
-
REACHING OUT into the community, giving opportunities for those investigating the Christian faith, and making a positive contribution to people’s lives.
-
BUILDING UP each other in our knowledge of God, and in using the talents and resources he has given us as individuals.
-
SENDING OUT men and women to serve God in their workplaces and their communities, and supporting the work of the worldwide church.
This is our broad vision, and remains constant from year to year.
Everything we do has the ultimate aim of trying to glorify God in our lives.
When planning our activities for the year the PCC has considered the Charity Commissions guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion.
Review of Activities
The church is led by Rev Ed Pennington and is ably supported by Rev Rob Bridgewater, who joined the staff team, as Associate Minister, from St John’s Chapeltown, Sheffield at the beginning of May 2018. Sarah Bradley is our Youth and Children’s Minister. In September 2022 Daniel Allen joined the staff team as our Assistant Youth and Children’s Worker. Rebecca Rae is our Administrator. Both Sarah and Rebecca ‘s posts are part-time.
The church runs a Ministry Trainee programme, normally comprising of two trainees. As well as receiving formal bible training, the trainees gain on-the-job experience by helping in the running of church ministry events and activities.
The focus of church activity remains the sharing of the Christian Gospel message to those who haven’t heard it and the growing to maturity in faith of existing believers.
The church seeks to reach out to the local community and beyond. Sunday services are open to all and take place every Sunday at 4pm and 7.00pm at St Augustine’s Church on Brocco Bank. Our service times will be changing from 4[th] February 2024. We will be meeting at 09.15 and 11.00 at Birkdale Preparatory School (Clarke Drive S10 2NS) and at 6pm at St Augustine’s Church
Sunday services remains the main focus of regular activity, together with a monthly church family prayer meeting, and our small groups which are the building blocks for church family life meeting most weeks for bible study, prayer fellowship and outreach..
Children and young people are a really important part of our church family. On Sunday’s the children join us in the main service and then head out to their individual groups, whilst the young people (11-18s) have a short post-service discussion and a Sunday evening youth group.

Christ Church Endcliffe CIO
Trustees’ report - continued For the year ended 31 December 2023
We regularly hold events such as:
-
Pre-school activities which offer structured play in a friendly, Christian environment, in particular Tiny Toes and Sticky Fingers provide an opportunity to welcome mothers, carers and others informally while their children play
-
Work with children taking place during the week (Bible study groups), on Fridays evenings we have Cabin for the young people. We also link up with three other partner churches in the city for Connect events each term and a weekend away in the summer.
-
Student events held for those from Sheffield’s two universities
-
Hope Explored courses which are intended to allow those who want to find out more about the Christian faith to do so in a more informal setting.
-
Popular family events, Easter Family Fun Day and the Christmas Services were attended by many people from the local community.
-
Other outreach events such as the Advent Christmas Craft Evening and the Pies and Carols give members the opportunity to invite family, friends, neighbours, work colleagues along to hear the Gospel in a relaxed environment.
Safeguarding
The Trustees are responsible for implementing and overseeing the policies and procedures regarding the safeguarding of Children and Vulnerable Adults at Christ Church Endcliffe. All volunteers helping with these groups have therefore been cleared by the Disclosure and Barring Service and have, as far as possible, undergone relevant training.
The Endcliffe Church Council and staff deal with and consider a variety of areas of risk to which the church may be exposed. Such areas include health and safety issues, Disability Discrimination Act issues, employment law issues, financial controls and insurance. Where it is felt appropriate, action has been taken to mitigate risk.
Partnerships
We have partnered with CAP (Christians Against Poverty) to be able to run their Life Skills course. It is a course designed to help members gain confidence and decision making skills to survive life on low income, and offers opportunity to hear the Gospel message.
The Church Council will continue to work with local like-minded Anglican churches to strengthen the ReNew South Yorkshire network, and especially to encourage those churches to stand together on the authority of the Bible amidst pressures from the wider church to conform to cultural changes.
Future Plans
Our Vision and Partnership Sundays each year help us to be the church God wants us to be. We remember who we are in Christ and what our priorities should be as his people and help us refocus what we are doing as individuals and as a church family.
Our focus in 2024 is finding “Room to Grow”. After searching for alternative premises and much discussion and prayerful consideration, the Endcliffe Church Council have agreed on a move to Birkdale Preparatory School. This will mean two morning services at Birkdale, with full provision of children’s ministries and then an earlier evening service at St Augustine’s. The different service pattern will naturally bring different opportunities to offer hospitality and spend time with others in the church family.

Christ Church Endcliffe CIO
Trustees’ report - continued For the year ended 31 December 2023
The new pattern of services will give us the much needed space in the school hall to welcome new folk to join us and at the same time the classrooms are ideal for our children’s work. Our aim is to reach out to others so we can show the love of Jesus..
Financial Review
Total income on unrestricted funds was £241,154 (2022: £247,373) and details can be found in the financial statements. £24,528 (2022: £71,997) was received for restricted funds of which £1,350 (2022: £1,350) was directly allocated to the Property Fund as detailed in the financial statements. The sum of £Nil (2022: £1,163) was received as designated funds.
Unrestricted expenditure of £198,030 (2022: £207,582) was spent on providing ministry, including the contribution to the diocese which largely provides the stipends for the clergy.
The result for the year was net income of £13,250 (2022: £59,904) and adding funds brought forward at the beginning of the year, the balances reserves carried forward at 31 December 2023 was £338,688 (2022: £325,438). Of these £59,239 (2022: £65,122) are restricted funds and £238,733 (2022: £174,541) are funds designated to particular purposes as set out in note 14 of the financial statements.
As at 31 December 2023 the Charity is in a strong financial position.
Reserves Policy
The Trustees have reviewed their Reserves Policy and will hold free reserves to the average value of 2 months operating costs plus £5,000 due to the reliance of the charity on uncertain donations. The policy therefore requires the charity to hold £42,232 of reserves. Free reserves of the charity at the year-end totalled £33,521(being general reserves less fixed assets) (2022: £81,834). The reduction in free reserves in 2023 is a direct result of repaying part of the mortgage to CAF Bank Limited (£50,000) to reduce the increasing mortgage interest charges. The Trustees saw this as a positive step in reviewing our annual finances and will take steps in the coming years to address the shortfall in reserves.
Cost of Living impact
At the time of approval of the annual report and financial statements the UK is continuing to go through a Cost of Living crisis. Since the year end we have seen growth in our general income, however like most institutions we are experiencing increases in costs such as staffing costs, fuel costs and other overhead costs
This Trustees have prepared these financial statements on a going concern basis, having made due assessment to the resources available and reviewed cashflow forecasts for the foreseeable future
Trustees’ responsibilities in relation to the financial statements
The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a Trustees’ Report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, of the charity for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Observe the methods and principles in the applicable Charities SORP;
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures that must be disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Christ Church Endcliffe CIO (“the CIO”) for the year ended 31 December 2023
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the CIO you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner’s statement
Since the Charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-

-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the accounts (financial statements) in accordance with the relevant version of the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn. We understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

Christ Church Endcliffe CIO Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2023
1 Accounting Policies
(a) General
Christ Church Endcliffe is a charitable incorporated organisaton. In the event that the charity is wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is £nil per member of the charity. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 1 of these financial statements.
The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared in accordance with the relevant version of the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’. This departure has involved following the relevant version of the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and are rounded to the nearest £.
(b) Revenue recognition
Income is recognised when the organisation has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income received in advance of an event is deferred until that event takes place.
(c) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
(d) Grants to mission partners
The church supports mission partners in the UK and around the world. Where a particular mission partner has been supported by the church for a number of years, strict compliance with the Charities' Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) may regard some arrangements as constituting constructive obligations such that future years' support is accounted for in these accounts as a liability.
Whilst the support has no final end date, the Trustees assesses mission partner funding on an annual basis and is confident that the mission partners would not view their support as an open ended obligation on the part of the Church. The annual commitment only is accounted for in these financial statements.
(e) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of

1 Accounting Policies - continued
(f) Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life, as follows:
-
Equipment: 4 years straight line
-
Computers: 2 years straight line
(g) Trade debtors
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.
(h) Trade creditors
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
(i) Funds
Unrestricted funds are donations and other income receivable or generated for the objects of the organisation without further specified purpose and are available as general funds.
Designated funds comprise funds which have been set aside at the discretion of the trustees for specific purposes. The purposes and uses of the designated funds are set out in the notes to the accounts.
Restricted Funds are those funds which the trustees must apply to the specific purposes created either by donors’ request or legal obligation. These funds are therefore not available for application by the trustees for general purposes.
(j) Pensions
Retirement benefits to employees of the charity are provided under contributions to the church's stakeholder pension scheme.
The charity opened an auto enrolment compliant stakeholder pension scheme with the People’s Pension to which all contributions to employees’ retirement benefits are paid in to.
All contributions to pension plans are charged to the Statement of financial activities in line with recognition of earnings and in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
(k) Leases
Rental payable and receivable under operation leases are charged to the SOFA on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

(l) Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
