ANNUAL REPORT OF THE MEMBERS OF THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31[st] DECEMBER 2021
The Members (who are the Trustees) present their report and accounts for the year ended 31[st] December 2021.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 2 to the accounts and comply with the “Accounting and reporting by charities: 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) (effective 1[st] January 2015)”.
Aims and Purposes
St Mary’s Parochial Church Council (PCC) has the responsibility of cooperating with the incumbent, in promoting the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The PCC is responsible for the maintenance of the Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin. Horse Fair, Banbury and the adjacent Church Centre.
Our mission, purpose and vision can be summarised as:
worshipping God
sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ
welcoming all who come
celebrating our rich Christian and cultural heritage and handing it on
contributing to the flourishing of our town and region so that all might have life in all its fullness.
Our vision is to see lives and communities transformed by God’s love.
This vision can be achieved by
worship and spirituality
hospitality and care
learning, nurture and formation

resources and stewardship
Structure, governance and management
Parochial Church Council
The Parochial Church Council is a corporate body established by the Church of England. The PCC operates under the Parochial Church Councils (Powers) Measure 1956 as amended by the Measure of 1969, and the Church Representation Rules 2011. The PCC is registered with the Charity Commission, number 1179456. The members named on the Charity Information page have, except where indicated, served throughout the year.
All clergy and lay ministers licensed to the parish are members, as are, ex officio, the churchwardens and diocesan and deanery synod members on the parish electoral roll. The remaining members are either elected at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting or are coopted. This is in accordance with the Church Representation Rules. All members of the congregation are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC.
The PCC normally meets not less than four times a year, chaired by the Vicar, or in the case of a vacancy, by the Vice Chair. The Standing Committee of the PCC meets regularly to plan agendas, deal with other urgent issues and for strategic development. A number of subgroups report to the PCC.
Safeguarding
With regard to the PCC’s obligations to safeguard children and vulnerable adults, the members of the PCC confirm that they have complied with their duties under Section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016.
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 St Mary’s, recognising that we also have a role as the civic church for Banbury. In planning the activities the church should undertake, the PCC have applied the guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission.
The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish and makes suggestions on how services can involve many diverse groups that live within our parish. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament.
In particular, we try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our parish community through:
Page 3
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, members of the
congregation or those who are in some way part of our parish community.
Missionary and outreach work.
To facilitate this work, it is important that we maintain the fabric of the Church and the Church Centre and explore new ways of using these resources. During 2019 we received National Lottery Heritage Funding of £200,000 to carry out the replacement of stonework to the outer east end of the church and to replace the main glass double entrance doors with disability friendly ones. This work was completed in June 2021.
The church Electoral Roll at the end of the year was 100.
The church had to close due to Covid at Christmas 2020 and did not reopen until Mothering Sunday, 14[th] March 2021.
Activities during the year
Due to Covid-19, we were not able to open the church to visitors or for services between 1[st] January and 14[th] March. Once we reopened, our volunteers came forward to enable us to open the church for a part of each day for private prayer and visitors. We were not able to hold any of the usual concerts in church, usually a significant source of income, although the Remembrance Day civic service and Christmas services went ahead, albeit with greatly reduced numbers of attendees. Despite this, we still endeavoured to:
work to deliver our vision
address the funding issue by reducing our outgoings where possible, by continuing to promote the Parish Giving Scheme and by seeking new ways of generating income in order to sustain our ministry.
Further details of the activities of the church can be found in the Churchwarden’s report which is available on request.
Quinquennial Inspection
This was carried out on 5[th] February 2021 and the PCC is awaiting the report.
Financial Review
The accounts are consolidated across the areas of PCC, Art@BSM and Bell Ringers.
Mission objectives were largely met in the year with £2,050 being disbursed to a range of local and international charities. There was a small increase in plate donations thanks to the church being open for more services than in 2020, and the total donations were significantly increased thanks to a one-off donation of £30,000. Centre lettings and church bookings also generated more income than in 2020, but still below pre-pandemic levels. The first craft fair since 2019 also generated welcome
Page 4
funds. However, this was the second year that the Parish share was not paid in full, with just half the allotted contribution being made.
The PCC continued to encourage the congregation to consider giving under the Parish Giving Scheme and for taxpayers amongst the congregation to consider making their financial donation to the Church under gift aid. This is an important and vital way to help ensure the financial future of St Mary’s.
Key Financial Policies
Reserves Policy
The Reserves Policy is reviewed periodically. This is geared to our budgeted expenditure and we aim to hold the equivalent of 6-8 months of unrestricted expenditure in reserve.
Investment Policy
Our overall policy position is not to tie up too much money in long-term investments and our guiding principles are not to invest directly in stocks and shares and to limit the amounts held in long-term deposit investment accounts using investment in CBF funds for long-term growth. The position has been maintained.
Mission Policy
The policy is to budget 5% of pledge, plus Parish Giving Scheme, plate and associated gift aid for the work of the Mission. This is split between international, national and local charities according to an agreed formula.
In addition to the planned giving for mission we may also respond to emergency situations either by a specific collection or a fundraising event.
Legacy Policy
The policy is to use legacies to help fund significant development projects in the parish, whether buildings, equipment or people. Members encouraged to leave gifts in their wills for the general purposes of the parish rather than for specific applications.
Giving Policy
The policy is to encourage planned giving either through the Parish Giving Scheme, Bank Standing Order, by using the Contactless Payment system or by participation in an envelope scheme. For all giving we encourage gift-aiding if appropriate. Similarly, Contactless giving and gift-aid envelopes for one-off donations can be used. The Parish Giving Scheme helps cash flow and acts to inflation proof any giving via Direct Debit.
In line with Diocesan guidelines a figure of 5% of disposable income is suggested as appropriate giving.
The PCC recognise that generous financial giving is set alongside time and talent, and so is freely given.

TO THE MEMBERS OF THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF
The Parochial Church Council of St Mary's Church, Banbury ('the Charity')

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
1 Statutory Information
The Parochial Church Council of St Mary's Church, Banbury is a charity registered with the Charity Commission in England & Wales. The charity's registered number and principal address can be found on the Charity Information page.
2 Accounting Policies
These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention. The financial statements include all activities for which the PCC is legally responsible; the activities of informal gatherings of church members and groups that owe their main affiliation to another body and are excluded.
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with The Church Accounting Regulations 2006, the 'Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)' ("the Charities SORP"), with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102") and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as set out in FRS 102.
The Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 (the '2008 Regulations') requires charities to prepare their accounts in accordance with 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005' but this accounting standard has since been withdrawn and has been replaced by the Charities SORP mentioned in the preceding paragraph. The charity has prepared these financial statements in accordance with the new Charities SORP; this departure from the 2008 Regulations is believed to be necessary for these financial statements to give a 'true and fair view'.
The principles adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.
a) Going concern
The PCC have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The PCC have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. In particular the PCC have considered the charity's forecasts and projections and the possible implications should projected income and / or expenditure vary unexpectedly. The PCC have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements. In making this assessment the trustees have considered how Covid-19 might affect projections.
b) Income
Income (which includes planned giving, collections and other donations) is recognised in the period in which the charity becomes entitled to receipt, the amount receivable can be measured with reasonable certainty, and receipt is probable. For the most part income is generally recognised when it is received by, or on behalf of, the PCC. Income is only deferred when the charity has to fulfil conditions before becoming entitled to it or where the donor has specified that the income is to be expended in a future period.
Income from donations includes:
- i) Recoverable gift aid. This is recognised when the related donation is received. Gift aid that has not been recovered by the balance sheet date is included as a debtor.
The charity relies on volunteers to carry out many of its activities. However, in accordance with the SORP, the value of these services has not been included in these financial statements as they cannot be reliably measured.
Income from charitable activities represents income receivable from goods, services and facilities supplied in furtherance of the charity's charitable objects. It includes income from the Music @ BSM initiative and letting of the buildings.
Investment income represents income generated by the charity's assets and includes income from investements
c) Expenditure
Expenditure, including irrecoverable VAT, is recognised when it is incurred or, if earlier, when a legal or constructive obligation for a payment arises provided that it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Contributions in respect of the diocesan parish share are included in the Statement of Financial Activities for all amounts agreed to being payable for the financial year. Any contributions that have not been paid over by the year end are included as a creditor.
The charity makes grants to other institutions and individuals to further its charitable objectives. Grants payable are recognised as constructive obligations arise, which is generally when the charity expresses a commitment to the recipient that can be measured reliably and then only to the extent that any conditions associated with the grant are outside of the control of the charity.
Expenditure on raising funds comprises the costs incurred on running fundraising events.

The Parochial Church Council of St Mary's Church, Banbury
NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
Governance costs, which are included in expenditure on charitable activities but are identified separately in the notes to the accounts, includes costs associated with the independent examination of the financial statements, compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements and any other expenditure incurred on the strategic management of the charity.
d) Fund accounting
- General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the PCC in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the PCC for particular purposes. Restricted funds are donations which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors; they include donations received from appeals for specific activities or projects.
e) Tangible fixed assets
- Consecrated and beneficed property is not included in these financial statements by virtue of s.10(2) of the Charities Act 2011. All expenditure on consecrated or beneficed buildings is written off in the year in which it is incurred.
Movable church furnishings held by the incumbent and Churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal are capitalised in accordance with the policy set out below. These items are regarded as inalienable property and are listed in the church's inventory which can be inspected at any reasonable time. Inalienable property acquired prior to 2000 has not been capitalised as there is insufficient cost information available.
f) Investments
Fixed asset investments are held to generate income and / or for their investment potential. Current asset investments are investments that are held specifically for sale or are investments that the charity expects to sell by the next balance sheet date. Investments, other than social investments (see below), are valued as follows:
- i) Investment property and listed investments are valued at their market value (fair value) at the balance sheet date. ii) Unlisted investments are measured at cost less impairment where it becomes apparent that the amount that could be realised is less than cost.
g) Pension scheme arrangements
- The charity also contributes to the Church of England Funded Pension Scheme, which is a multi-employer defined benefit pension scheme. The charity is unable to identify its share of this scheme's assets and liabilities therefore, as permitted by FRS 102, it is being treated as if it were a defined contribution scheme. Further information about this defined benefits scheme is disclosed elsewhere in the notes to these accounts.
h) Taxation
The charity has taken advantage of the various reliefs from taxation available to charities and no tax is payable on the charity's income.
i) Financial instruments
The charity's financial assets and financial liabilities all qualify as basic financial instruments, as defined by FRS102. Except for loans, creditors and debtors are measured at their expected settlement value (normally the amount of cash that the charity expects to pay or receive). The charity recognises liabilities for the principal of those loans that remains outstanding at the year end (i.e. the liabilities exclude any interest chargeable on the loans in future years).
j) Exemption from preparing a cashflow statement
The charity has taken advantage of an exemption conferred by the Charities SORP and has not prepared a cash flow statement.

The charity participates in the Church of England Funded Pensions Scheme for stipendiary clergy. This scheme is administered by the Church of England Pensions Board, which holds the assets of the schemes separately from those of the Responsible Bodies.
Each participating Responsible Body in the scheme pays contributions at a common contribution rate applied to pensionable stipends.
The scheme is considered to be a multi-employer scheme as described in Section 28 of FRS 102. This means it is not possible to attribute the Scheme’s assets and liabilities to specific Responsible Bodies and so contributions are accounted for as if the Scheme were a defined contribution scheme. The pensions costs charged to the SoFA in the year are £8,412 (2020: £nil).
The charity is Minor Responsible Body for the scheme which means that they when the charity ceases to have any active members it is not required to contribute to any deficit in the Scheme. For this reason, no pension liability has been included in the accounts.
