Objectives and Activities
The object and principal activity of the Charitable Incorporated Organisation is for the advancement of education and the preservation and protection of good mental health by:
-
Providing a system of accreditation for pastoral supervisors and educators in pastoral supervision;
-
Supporting initiatives in the training of pastoral supervisors;
-
Fostering groups for the support, accountability and continuing development of pastoral supervisors;
-
Encouraging conversation amongst the various traditions and contexts of pastoral supervision and pastoral supervision education
Achievements and Performance
Membership increased to 280 members. The Conference in 2021 was held online with over 100 members attending and a theme of ‘Identity – who do we think we are’. This has informed much of the trustees thinking over the past year. The Association continues to accredit members who demonstrate an understanding of and commitment to high standards of practice. During the year we accredited twelve further members, 10 at senior level bringing the total accredited membership to 60, 45 of which are at Senior level and 6 at educator level.
The Association continues to keep members informed through its website and online journal ‘Apsical’ which is usually circulated each quarter.
Networking and training opportunities are offered through regional groups meeting 3 to 4 times a year. These are in Scotland, East Anglia, North East, North West, Midlands, South-East, South West, All Ireland and an International group.

Financial Review
The financial statements have been subjected to an Independent Examination as they are exempt from the audit requirements of Section 144(2) Charities Act 2011.
In the year under review the charity received subscriptions from members of £10,035 (2021: £6,647), accreditation fees of £1,780 (2021: £1,350) with corresponding costs of £860 (2021: £610) and cash inflows from conference fees of £13,650 (2021: £3,145) and corresponding cash out flows of £2,438 (2020: £9,500). The charity also received donations of £948 (2021: £905) mainly gift aid related income tax recoverable.
We aim to cover conference costs on a year-by-year basis. The 2021 Conference was held online and made a healthy surplus of £5,794. This will be used to underwrite the costs of the 2022 Conference held in Glasgow in June 2022.
Public Benefit
We confirm that the trustees have paid due regard to the Charities Commission guidance on public benefit in planning the activities the charity should undertake.
Trustees responsibilities in relation to financial statements
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
The trustees are required to prepare financial statements for each financial year in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). The financial statements are required by law to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees should follow best practice and:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed: and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the applicable law, regulations and the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees confirm that the relevant UK Accounting Standards have been followed
Independent Examiner
Sue Wintle, Independent Examiner, has expressed her willingness to continue as the Independent Examiner of the charitable incorporated organisation.
