The PCC is also specifically responsible for the maintenance of Blackwell Hall. 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 parish community at All Saints. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish 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. > • Provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish. > • Missionary and outreach work. To facilitate this work, it is important that we maintain the fabric of All Saints Church and Blackwell Hall. Independent Examlnerfs RepDrt to the Parochial Church Council of All Saint.

For example, formal worship provides a reflective environment for worship whilst opportunities are provided for people to engage in more informal fellowship and outreach such as that provided by after service coffee and weekday clubs such as Friday Friendship and the Crafts Club. However, in 2020 we were required to cease public worship from March to August and then again from mid-December as a result of COVID restrictions, and all informal fellowship and outreach activities were suspended from mid-March until the end of the year. From mid-March, when we were instructed by the Government to cease public worship, the incumbent started to live stream daily worship from the Vicarage, using Facebook and YouTube. All services were recorded and can be viewed at any time. Up to the end of 2020, a total of 312 services were live streamed. Significant numbers of people viewed the services and one notable consequence has been that we have welcomed to our congregation a number of people living not only all over England but also around the world. Some have assisted worship by reading lessons and leading intercessions. In late 2020, when we returned to All Saints for public worship, we continued to live stream so that these new members of our congregation continue to be part of our worshipping community. All are welcome to attend our regular services. At the end of 2020 there were 92 parishioners on the Church Electoral Roll, 40 of whom were not resident within the parish. Five names were added during the year and seven were removed, two as a result of their deaths and the others moved away from the parish. The average weekly attendance in church, counted during October, was 72, but this number does not include people following services online. As well as our regular services, we enable our community to celebrate and thank God at the milestones of the journey through life. Through baptism we thank God for the gift of life, in marriage public vows are exchanged with God’s blessing and through funeral services friends and family express their grief and give thanks for the life which is now complete in this world and to commend the person into God's keeping. In the extraordinary year that was 2020, we have celebrated 3 baptisms, 1 wedding and led 11 funerals in our church, by the graveside, and at the crematorium. ## **Deanery Synod** Two members of the PCC sit on the deanery synod. This provides the PCC with an important link between the parish and the wider structures of the church. This year the PCC has also focused its attention on the questions posed to parishes in the deanery about how best to serve the people of our parish who do not attend traditional church services. ## **The Church Centre Complex** We want our church to be open to our community for private prayer. Unfortunately, due to the impact of COVID, we have felt unable to have the church open for much of the year. We are however pleased that with the support of parishioners we were able to open the church whenever possible. During the week the church hall is used regularly by the All Saints Pre School. Twelve children have been regular attenders in the last year. Outreach activities for children and their families is greatly enhanced by the activities of a Forest School adjacent to the church. The School activities are integrated with those of the church and Messy Mossy Church activities are held monthly during term time when COVID restrictions permit. ## **Pastoral Care** Some members of our parish are unable to attend church due to sickness or age. The Vicar and the pastoral support team visit all church members who request it, to celebrate communion with them either at their homes or in hospital. We have a regular pattern of visits and eucharistic services at care homes located in the parish, although again this has been limited in 2020 by COVID restrictions. ## **Mission and Evangelism** Helping those in need is a demonstration of our faith. We seek to respond to urgent needs for assistance, both local and international. Our parish newsletter is distributed weekly to parishioners. The newsletter keeps our parishioners informed of the important matters affecting our Church and articles that help develop our knowledge and trust in Jesus. ## **Ecumenical Relationships** The church is a member of Churches Together in the Weald. We share our church facilities with the Sinai Mar Thoma Church and organise joint services and activities, particularly at major festivals. ## **Financial Review** Total receipts of unrestricted funds in 2020 were £69,885 of which £61,689 was unrestricted voluntary donations. Restricted donations of £5,775 were also received and are detailed in the Financial Statements. Planned giving through envelopes and banker’s orders decreased significantly in 2020 in consequence of us not having public worship for the majority of the year. However, giving via direct bank payments increased. Total income was some 25% lower compared with 2019. £63,497 was spent from unrestricted funds to provide the Christian ministry from All Saints Church, including the contribution to the Diocesan Common Fund that largely provides the stipends and housing for the clergy. The net result for the year was an excess of receipts over payments of £5,819 on unrestricted funds. Adding bank and deposit balances brought forward at the beginning of the year, the balances carried forward at 31st December on unrestricted funds totalled £21,941. An additional £44,528 is set aside, designated to meet the costs of a planned investment in church fabric. There is a further £13,536 held as a project fund, the result of a gift to facilitate the purchase of a new church organ. ## **Reserves policy** It is the PCC’s intention to try to maintain a balance on unrestricted funds which equates to at least three months unrestricted payments. This was equivalent of £5,339 in 2020. It is held to smooth out fluctuations in cash flow and to meet emergencies. The cash balance of £21,941 held on unrestricted funds at the year end, more than meets this target, although all 2020 figures are exceptional given the reductions in both income and expenditure over the year as a result of the church being closed for the majority of the year. It is the PCC’s hope to maintain this balance in the current year. The balance of £44,528 in the project designated fund is retained towards meeting the cost of our planned refurbishment of the church interior. It is our policy to invest our fund balances with HSBC and the CAF Bank. ## **Volunteers** We would like to thank all the volunteers who work so hard to make our church the lively and vibrant community it is. In particular we want to mention our churchwardens who have worked so tirelessly on our behalf. The whole church family was deeply saddened in September following the death of our serving church warden Doug Garrett. Doug served faithfully and diligently as church warden even during the final weeks of a painful and debilitating illness. Philippa Jackson served as church warden throughout the year and at the delayed APCM, held in October, Dave Rogers became our second church warden. ## **Structure, governance and management** The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. At All Saints, the membership of the PCC consists of the incumbent (our vicar), churchwardens, the assistant priest and members elected by those members of the congregation who are on the electoral roll of the church. All those who attend our services / members of the congregation 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 the funds of the PCC are to be spent. The full PCC met six times during the year with an average level of attendance of 80%. The majority of the meetings were held via Zoom in 2020. Given its wide responsibilities the PCC has a number of sub-groups each dealing with a particular aspect of parish life. ## **Administrative information** All Saints Church is situated at 90 Uxbridge Road, Harrow HA3 6DQ. It is part of the Willesden Area of the Diocese of London within the Church of England. The correspondence address is All Saints Church, 90 Uxbridge Road, Harrow HA3 6DQ.
