2. Aims and Objectives

relationship with Jesus.

  1. To express our love for God in the service of others.

3. Activities and Achievements

3.1 Church Membership

The electoral roll stands currently stands at 90 members. During 2021 noone requested to leave the roll and 4 requested to join. (Beverley Belcher)

3.2 Sunday Worship

Due to Covid the pattern of worship continued to be different from previous years. Sadly, a further lockdown closed the church from 5[th] January until Easter Day, 4[th] April, and we once again moved to YouTube weekly recorded services

We continued to provide weekly pre-recorded services alongside a 10.30am church service until the beginning of June 2021.

In 2020 there were no Easter Services in Church due to Covid.

Due to Covid there was no Service on Maundy Thursday. Once again this was available on YouTube.

A Good Friday service was held outside church along with a YouTube prerecorded service.

Occasional Offices

Despite Covid restrictions during the year, there were 2 Wedding Services and 4 Funerals in church. There were 3 Baptism services in which 3 babies were baptised. Rev Tudor Roberts also conducted 3 Services at the Crematorium.

3.6 PCC Secretary

During 2021 the PCC have continued to meet regularly using Zoom. During the year we held 7 meetings and continued to follow the pattern of opening with a Bible reading and a prayer, a more focused section for prayer in the middle and ending with prayer. We were pleased to welcome Andrew Roberts as Church Warden in November and consequently as a PCC member. Once again Covid restrictions have meant that we have been unable to move forward on many things over the year but have continued to discuss the reordering project, safeguarding, finance and have been kept updated on matters concerning the Schools and the Deanery Synod. In November we welcomed Naomi Buckler who is the Planned Giving Advisor for Bristol Diocese to discuss our Parish Share. I am very grateful to Tina and Ginnie, who have kindly proofread for me over the year. As always, we work on behalf of the church members so please speak to any of us about any concerns or ideas. Currently there are vacancies on the PCC so if you would like to join us please talk to one of us – you would be most welcome. ( Beverley Belcher)

3.7 Deanery Synod Report

I became the All-Saints Synod rep part way through 2021 and report to the PCC but I choose not to attend their regular meetings.

The first two seasons were held on zoom, and I found these quite difficult until my camera and microphone were upgraded. Since then, we have held two live meetings which I attended with Tudor at Pattern Church and The Deanery Academy.

Topics discussed and foremost are:

ECO church

The diocese have appointed Claire Fussell as their Environmental Advisor and she highlighted the challenges that face not only the world but particularly our churches. The Anglican Church has declared that it will be Carbon neutral by 2030 and Claire presented us with a ‘Pyramid of Action’ and ways each church can help the Bristol Diocese reach this goal together.

This includes changing to greener energy suppliers, even if that costs more, ‘Living Churchyards’ such as the project Nicky Iddon is involved with and a series of Eco- awards for churches in our Deanery to work towards and achieve. These range from Bronze, Silver through to the ultimate Gold award. All Saints should soon be able to apply for a Bronze.

The synod has also looked closely at issues around Racial Justice particularly helped by the Vicar of St Barnabas who is the Diocesan Racial Justice champion.

Living in Love and Faith (looking at issues of human sexuality ) Deanery wide courses on LLF are being held some of which Tudor has already attended as there was a course on Zoom run just for Clergy. Do get in touch if you would like to go on a course or access resources

Transforming Church. Together.

Working groups have been discussing possible ways of implementing the vision and values which have been discerned as part of the Transforming Church.

Together conversations so far and their recommendations will be discussed at Diocesan Synod on 19[th] March. (Julian Wright)

3.8 Worship and Music Team

After the restrictions of 2020 it was a joy to return to something resembling normality in 2021, albeit a new normal, with face masks and hand-sanitiser still required. We had a new appreciation for things we previously took for granted, such as being able to meet in church, share in communion and sing. We were able to have live music again, while still being able to use Worship Lyric Videos for online services or when musicians were unavailable.

At the beginning of the year when we were still very much in the grip of the pandemic, we continued to run an online service for those unable to get to church, alongside a 10.30 Sunday service at All Saints when these were allowed. At Easter our Good Friday All-Age service was held in the churchyard, with a Good Friday Meditation online, and we were delighted to be able to celebrate Easter Sunday in church, which had not been possible the year before.

Later in the year we were able to resume using piano and guitar as well as the organ for Sunday services. By the end of the year we were pleased to be able to hold our Remembrance Day service in church once again and provide a number of Christmas services. No printed service sheets were used for any of the services with everything on screen and some lovely visuals, demonstrating new skills gained from 18 months of producing online services.

Our Carol Service followed the Nine Lessons & Carols format as usual but with no choir items. Instead Anne on the organ and a small number of singers led the congregation in traditional carols and a couple of duet items were performed by Heather & Emma Benn. Using recorded music we put on a Crib Service on Christmas Eve, led by Beverley, and a morning service in church on Christmas Day.

Thanks go to Karen for producing the service slides each week and to the faithful few who help with sound – rotas are back! (Ginnie Heads)

3.9 J-club

Covid-19 continued with us all this last year but it nevertheless was a good summer with J-Club meeting 3[rd] Sundays outside in the churchyard after Easter 2021 which worked well. We have had fun sessions on the themes of Pentecost, Caring for God’s Creation (our Bee session) and Feeding the 5000, all of which have been special times to remember and value. We were blessed with Nicky coming to explain about the church’s bee and wild flower initiatives and why these are necessary. We were able to take the practical ideas of bee hotels and flower meadows home to carry on the good work.

The team aims for all 4 members (Judith, Alison, Beverley and Heather) to be present for all sessions where possible so we can continue to be connected as a team, plan, pray and be known by the children. Parents continue to be welcome and enjoy joining in. Theo, our Young Person helper, has faithfully come to most sessions too and we are very grateful for his company and views. The mix of generations provided a welcoming breadth of discussion for the two J club children who attended this summer.

We had a team meeting with Tudor planned in August to discuss the way forward for J-Club but this had to be postponed for personal reasons affecting the team. With Tudor unwell the wider church meet up to discuss forward vision was postponed and then omicron emerged around Christmastime generally putting most discussion and planning in limbo.

For the Autumn each team member organised one of the four Autumn sessions meeting outside where possible or in the hall if not and on 1[st] Sundays. Two of these sessions went ahead, one outside and our November Operation Christmas Child Shoebox packing session inside the hall; the other sessions were prepared but no children turned up.

With the advent of the new year Heather and Beverley stepped down from the J-Club team to focus on other roles and Judith and Alison took over joint planning and leadership of the sessions. We didn’t meet in January but instead attended our church’s Christingle service for families and children. The February and March meets did not go ahead as no children turned up.

As we go forth into Easter 2022 now is probably a good time to rethink J-Club, safely recruit enough helpers to the team and pray for more children to join us. (Heather Benn)

3.10 Bell Ringing

A return to regular bellringing from 3 or 4 ringers allowed early in 2021 to a full complement of 6 or more allowed from Easter ’21 onwards was welcomed by all. With a robust risk assessment in place - focused on ventilation, hand sanitiser, masks and LFT testing before ringing we have been able to recruit and train several new ringers and allow those who had been isolating to return to the tower. We now have 12 ringers registered and ringing regularly at ASLM (including our 3 new recruits), enjoyable practices on Tuesday evenings and usually a full complement of all 6 bells rung weekly for services on Sunday mornings.

Last year saw one wedding, ringing to support the NHS and a special Sunday morning ring on 6[th] February 2022 to commemorate 70 years since the death of King George and Elizabeth’s accession to the throne. Further ringing is planned for Jubilee celebrations in May 2022.

A recent tower ‘tidy-up’ saw a thorough safety inspection of the bells, renewed safety hand-rail rope and full first aid kit update to 2022 standards. Both tower Captains have completed Leadership Safeguarding training and DBS checks with all others having completed the Basic Safeguarding course as a minimum. (Ann Hutchinson)

3.11 Men's breakfast

The Men’s group has met each first Saturday on Zoom throughout the last year.

We have people from two other Churches other than All Saints coming along and we average anything from 5 men on low days, to 9 people on high days.

We meet for fellowship and a chat and a study of the Bible and/or using a study book. Pre-Covid we would meet in Roughmoor Hall and enjoy bacon rolls and coffee, but Covid 19 has meant we have met on Zoom.

We studied a book looking at seven great women from Christian History which was enlightening for us all. Then we studied a book looking at all 12 apostles and right now as I write we are working our way through Doug and Jonathan Moo’s book on Creation Care but may change to something a little lighter as it has been quite a challenging subject and book to go through.

Like the advent group that met on Zoom in advent 2021 and studied Evelyn Underhill’s writings, meeting on Zoom seems to work; it is not perfect - we would much prefer to meet face to face - but Zoom has meant it takes up less time and means people can still meet even if they are involved in childcare from their home base.

We are always very open to other men joining and hope to be able to have some face-to-face meetings with bacon rolls in the Churchyard on a spring or summer’s day. ( Tudor Roberts)

3.12 Safeguarding

I took over as Parish Safeguarding Officer in November and am very grateful to Tanya Stobbs for all she has done in this role previously. Since November 11 DBS checks have been completed or renewed, 9 have renewed or undertaken Basic Safeguarding Training, 6 have completed the Foundation Training and 3 are have nearly completed the Leadership level of training.

However, safeguarding is much more than checks and training it is down to us all to ensure that Safeguarding is thought about in all that we do and report any concerns we may have.

In the coming year I would like to encourage as many people as possible to undertake the Basic Safeguarding Training and explore the possibility of All Saints working towards the Safe and Welcome awards given by the Church of England. (Beverley Belcher)

3.13 Churchwardens’ Report

We now have two churchwardens thanks to Andrew Roberts joining me. He has been very conscientious in locking and opening the building on a daily basis, carrying out verger’s duties and keeping the church clean for occasional offices. We work well together and I welcome him to the post.

The year has been dominated by Covid and the varying restrictions. Our response has been several risk assessments based upon changing government guidelines and Diocesan advice. We tried to keep the door open during services to maintain ventilation but when the weather became colder this was no longer an option. Mask wearing and distance keeping has been advised and requested but not enforced and most, but not all, of the congregation no longer wear them. Lists of those attending services have been kept for three weeks and then destroyed. At the time of writing, the lists have not been used to contact anyone regarding any infections. The policy will be reviewed by the PCC again at Easter time with a view to removing remaining Covid precautions.

There was a period of some months during the year when Tudor was off sick. I would like to thank everyone who rallied around to help keep the services and occasional offices on track. In particular I would like to thank Tricia for contacting substitute clergy and Karen Johnson for putting the services together for me. Many other people also helped out. Thank you.

The plans for reordering and repairing the Nave roof have continued apace and the consultation phase with the community and the congregation is just starting.

I know Andrew will want me to mention David Tapscott who has cheerfully stood in for both of us when we have not been available, as well as keeping a weather eye on our performance and prompting us when required.

The flowers have been particularly good this year thanks to Sally Griffiths and her team.

Anne and Ginnie have worked quietly and efficiently behind the scenes to select and produce the music for our services.

And last but not least, thanks to Tudor who seems to have been revitalised after his illness and has been cheerfully and energetically enthusiastic with his leadership of the church.

(John Halstead)

3.15 Reordering Project

The very first week We came to Lydiard Millicent back in 2007 I read this verse which I took as being from God for this parish.

Isaiah 54:2 New International Version 2 “Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes.

Since we brought a tent with us from Chelmsford and put it up in the garden, I guess we did obey this verse, but I always felt it was prophetic about what God wanted to do. Fast forward a few years and a series of circumstances indicated God’s hand on what would become the reordering project. I had two people walk into All Saints and with no prompting say to me why don’t you turn this Church around and re-order it. One person even had a vision and sketched it out on some paper, it looked exactly like the architect’s plans that have developed. Also, two books one by Roy Strong and one by the Oxford Church fund got me and others thinking of what could happen.

The first Reordering team was brilliant, and we met a whole group of architects and picked Benjamin and Beauchamp who have proved to be the right choice. Our team now is made up of Robert Bednarski, Julian Wright, Nicky Iddon, Tina Wheeler, John Halstead, Tudor Roberts, and Bryan and Ann Hutchinson. Covid 19 did put a dampener on moving forward but in the last year the new team has met regularly on Zoom and lately physically (now monthly) and the following is the result.

The architects have made a site visit at which changes and comments made by the DAC were run by them, and the team went around the whole Church so that each detailed point could be absorbed and acted on. Hence the new plans which form part of our Presentation in the Church. We addressed all the points the DAC fed back to us on our initial plans and even though, during the depths of Covid, it took a “will” to re-engage with plans, we did this with the encouragement of Emma Bakewell DAC secretary, we did everything they asked, and the result is our fabulous new plans that we have today. The planning team has had to wrestle not just with plans but how we can fully exploit the enormous potential of All Saints Church as a re-ordered building to:

Worship in new and creative ways.

To open up the building even more to our local schools and the community groups such as the Pre- School and local businesses, who said they would value a facility such as we have envisioned that they can drop into. During the last year, we have:

And hopefully, in April, we can apply for a faculty from the Chancellor of the Diocese to begin reconstruction of All Saints Church & the rebuilding of the Nave roof for which Julian Wright has such great advice and has already liaised with our Church building architect Annie. We intend to run this as one project and move out of the Church for one year once we have enough funds to begin work.

( Tudor Roberts)

3.16 ENVIRONMENTAL CHAMPION REPORT

The PCC appointed Nicky Iddon as ‘Environmental Champion’ for All Saints mid-year. To manage our Eco Programme in a structured way, we’ve registered with ‘Eco Church’. ‘Eco Church’ is one of the A Rocha UK’s programmes to get to net zero by 2030; participation is encouraged by the Diocese of Bristol. Nicky has attended the initial training for this programme.

The PCC has agreed that we’ll work towards an ‘Eco Church’ Bronze Award. There are also Silver and Gold Awards. To get an award you need to complete an extensive online evaluation of your activities under 5 headings:

  1. Worship and Teaching

  2. Buildings

  3. Land

  4. Community and Global Engagement

  5. Lifestyle

To achieve an award, you need to come up to the same standard in all 5 areas. If you gain an award, you get a certificate, a plaque and these could possibly be presented to the church by Bishop Viv.

Nicky visited St Giles Church at Stanton St Quintin, Chippenham, who participate in the ‘Living Churchyards’ project. The team at St Giles have received the Bishops Award for the management of their churchyard for biodiversity. She and John Halstead have subsequently met with the ‘Living Churchyards’ representative for Swindon, for advice on managing All Saints churchyard as a wildlife haven.

Environmental impacts have been carefully considered as part of the Reordering Plans. The heating systems are more efficient, heat will be better conserved and there will be more natural light. The heating system will be future-proofed by ensuring that the underfloor heating can be connected to a heat pump when gas boilers are phased out. We will seek to recycle and reuse materials, furnishings and consumables wherever possible.

Finally, Tudor has given a sermon series on Creation. (Nicky Iddon)

3.17 Vicar’s Report

We are beginning to emerge from the 2 years of Covid 19 and yet now find ourselves on the edge of a terrible war in Europe. We must pray but not be without hope.

The reordering project is gaining momentum ahead of the 26[th of] March Launch. A man asked me, ‘Why are you competing with the Parish Hall?’! Good question but a misunderstanding; just because we want to use a reordered Church for different things does not mean we want to be a hall. Our first priority as a church is the worship of the triune God and ensuring that the Church is a warm, welcoming and beautiful space to do that in. But wanting to make the Church into a flexible space does not mean it will not be a beautiful Church, suitable for Sunday worship, midweek worship, and occasional offices (W,B,F) yet also one in which we can switch things around for meals etc.

I can report that the 8am service has restarted and that so far, the maximum number of attendees is 2 or 3 including me. I am happy to continue with the service and will review this in September.

10.30 numbers gradually increasing and new people are coming along most weeks.

There is one wedding in May and funerals are increasing.

Baptisms are beginning to come in again, with one on 6[th] March and one adult one by immersion in February (2022).

I would like the PCC to look at links between schools work and what we do in church after the AGM.

The time for homegroups to restart has come with one at the Vicarage throughout lent studying Romans, plus onwards after Easter too if that works.

Peter Rogers, a trainee Licensed Lay Reader should be on secondment to us during May and June. He is currently based at Lydiard Tregoze and has been attending Men’s Breakfast.

The Parish Council are organising Jubilee Celebrations in the village from Thursday 2[nd] – Sunday 5[th] June and want us to do something during the Sunday Service. This is Pentecost Sunday so a time of celebration and I have seen some CPO leaflets that could be handed out to those who attend.

It’s good to have welcomed people back to the vicarage for a meal after a baptism and this weekend I did an FIC appointment on the Saturday and a Wedding prep session on the Sunday pm. It seems things are getting back to “normal”.

I would like to explore how we can pray effectively for everything in the Church including all the children’s work we do – assemblies, RE work, Open the Book and looking to see numbers of children increase.

Can we do a mini staycation in September?

Can we re-start healing prayer ministry in services and coffee too?

Does anyone want to plan for a church pilgrimage to Israel in a years’ time? (Tudor Roberts)

4.0 Financial Review

4.1 Financial Arrangements

Banking Facilities: Barclays Bank, Regent Street, Swindon Planned Giving Organiser: Tina Wheeler Independent Examiner: Nikoleta Bates, King Charles Road, Swindon

4.2 Treasurer’s report

Finance Report for Year Ending December 2021

For the first year since I have been treasurer the church annual income has not been sufficient to cover all the normal church running expenses and the Parish Share. This is despite the churches reduced outgoings, due to Covid. In order to avoid reducing our reserves the PCC decided to only pay tithe

payments to MAF and CMS and no other organisations. This decision allowed us to end the year with a small contribution to reserves. When preparing the budget for 2022, having reduced our running costs as much as possible, it became obvious that if we continued to pay the diocese the same amount as we paid in 2021 the expenses would exceed our income by £20,000 at the end of the year. The only area where we could make further reductions in our expenditure is our Parish Share. Rather than reduce our contribution to the diocese by our expected shortfall, the PCC decided to use the surplus from 2021 and some of our reserves to cover £10,000 of the shortfall. We have therefore reduced our contribution to the diocese by £10,000 for 2022. This is not the best solution as far as the diocese is concerned and the PCC decided that if our financial circumstances should change, we will increase the Parish Share or give a one off gift. The PCC have approved a reserves policy which states why we are holding reserves and how much. It is a requirement of the charity commission that members are aware of this policy.

Now the church can open again as normal I hope the finances may return to normal.

(Tina Wheeler)

4.3 Reserves Policy

All Saints Church Trustees Annual Report Reserves Policy

The Reserves Policy deals with our General Fund £50,992 at the end of 2021. Other funds also held which are NOT required to be included in our reserves are:

  1. Building Fund £4,921 (Restricted)

  2. Bell Fund £3,116 (Restricted)

  3. Building Fund £215,230 (Designated)

  4. Puppets £313 (Designated)

Our Reserves

The PCC have agreed that we hold sufficient money in reserve, in our general fund, to cover six-months of expenditure (£38,722). The reason for this is twofold:

  1. The church income in the last couple of years has not been sufficient to cover the month’s average expenditure for normal running costs, including the Parish share.

  2. In order to be able to adapt to any changes in the income and expenditure of the church in 2022.

The remaining £12,270 held in the general fund will be used to subsidise the projected 2022 income to allow us to meet our commitments to the building work.

Other Funds held for Specific Purposes

Restricted funds (building and bell funds) can only be used for the purpose for which they were donated.

Designated funds are funds which have been set aside for a particular reason but can be used in an emergency.

We currently maintain a designated building fund which is for the planned refurbishment of our building and the repair of the Nave roof. The estimated total cost of this work is £750,000 of which we currently hold £215,000. The remainder will be raised by grants and donations. The Puppets designated fund is the residue from the puppets account which is being held until it is decided if the group will continue.
