Trustees !" Annual Report for the period

From 01/01/2021 To 31/12/2021

Charity name: The Parochial Church Council Of The Ecclesiastical Parish Of St Michael And St George, Fulwell

Charity registration number: 1184231

Objectives and Activities

Summary of the purposes of the
charity as set out in its
governing document
The objectives of St Michael’s Fulwell are the advancement of religion in
accordance with the tenets and practices of the Church of England for the
public benefit including (but not limited to);
a) ancillary or incidental educational activities; and
b) other associated activities for the benefit of the community
We also have a church mission statement: to rebuild a gospel centred
community for Fulwell, Teddington and beyond.
Summary of the main activities
in relation to those purposes for
the public benefit, in particular,
the activities, projects or
services identified in the
accounts.
Church services
At the beginning of 2021, services were conducted online due to the Covid
pandemic and in-person services were reinstated with social distancing
measures in April at three Sunday services (a young family’s service, an all
age service and an evening service) with a deep clean between each service.
In July, St Michael’s Fulwell vacated the church building to begin a
renovation project and moved to a temporary venue at St Peter’s and St
Paul’s Teddington. From July to the end of the year, three services were run
by St Michael’s Fulwell in the St Peter and St Paul’s building: a 10am service,
a 4pm service and a 6.30pm service. The 10am and 6.30pm services were
live streamed via the St Michael’s YouTube channels throughout the year to
accommodate those still shielding. In-person/online activities were provided
throughout 2021 for children and young people, and Bible teaching for all
ages through age-appropriate media.
Parent and toddlers’ group
When it has been possible, a group for under fours and their parents or
carers has run during the week for the benefit of families living in the local
area during 2021. This aims to provide suitable and safe activities for
children and support to parents and carers. During 2021, this was able to
run from March until the end of the year, when schools reopened. When St
Michael’s moved to the St Peter and St Paul’s building, this group moved to
the new venue too.
Children’s and Youth groups
Four groups (SMASH, SMASH Junior, Animate and Emerge) are run during
the week to provide activities and Bible teaching for the different age
groups. These are particularly aimed at members of the local community
who do not currently attend a church, as well as children and young people
from within the church community. During the pandemic period, these
groups have run effectively online, providing socialising and support for
young people during a challenging period. When schools reopened in
March, these groups returned to meeting in-person for the rest of 2021.
Students
In July 2021, St Michael’s expanded the staff team and appointed an
Assistant Minister who ran a weekly student group from September,
supporting students at the local university St Mary’s.
Schools
Visiting schools has been largely prohibited in 2021 due to the pandemic,
but the church has funded and supported the work of Insight, a Christian
charity which pivoted in 2020 to provide online material and activities for
schools in the Richmond borough.
Small Groups
During 2021 small groups from within the church community met on a
weekly basis in people’s homes to study the Bible. During the lockdown
period at the beginning of the year, this moved online before returning in-
person from March.
Leadership Training
In September 2021, we re-started the Ministry Training Home Group to
provide ministry training to volunteers in the church.

Beyond Fulwell and Teddington We have participated in online activities run by the Co-Mission network of churches as well as in Church of England activities in 2021. We support mission partners, including Tearfund, UCCF and a church plant in Naples.

Statement confirming whether
the trustees have had regard to
the guidance issued by the
Charity Commission on public
benefit
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.

You may choose to include further statements where relevant about:

Policy for grant making Training
We give ministry trainees a grant to support them while they undertake the
Cornhill Training course and related training activities. Ministry Trainees are
encouraged to raise support for their training themselves, and the size of
grant offered depends on the extent to which trainees have been able to
raise their own support.
Support of mission
The church currently supports several charities working beyond Teddington
with similar aims. The majority of these are closely connected with St
Michael’s in some way, and both the recipient and the amount are
discussed and approved by the PCC. In addition, donations are made to local
charities pursuing the same goals when this seems appropriate to the PCC.
Contribution made by
volunteers
An extremely important contribution has been made throughout the year by
volunteers within and outside our own church community, which has
enabled the running of the charity and its various activities. For example,
many weekly activities (Noah’s Ark, small groups etc) are run by volunteers
(many online during the pandemic period), the majority of the activities
required for Sunday services are carried out by volunteers, and the PCC
relies on the expertise of volunteers in many areas (eg. governance,
fundraising, building project).
In order to support our volunteers as best we can, we offer training
opportunities in the relevant areas. For example, members of our youth and
children’s team have done safeguarding training, first aid training and
training in Special Educational Needs provision.

Achievements and Performance

Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to the
circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a whole.
Church Growth
Despite limitations and challenges facing worship and mission in 2021 as the
pandemic continued, and moving our congregation to a new, temporary
venue while we began a renovation project on our church building during
the year, we were able to maintain a steady number of church members
through online and in-person services. For example, our average attendance
during October 2021 was 152 from 112 the previous year. Our online
services were watched by a varying number of households through the year,
depending on the availability of in-person services, but we were able to
reach individuals not living locally as well as our existing congregation.
Numerical growth is not the only indicator of success and care is taken to
ensure the spiritual growth of those within and outside the church as well,
but after another challenging year, we are thankful to have maintained
connections with the church family at St. Michael’s.
Outreach
The church continues to seek the growth of a gospel community in the
wider area, and to this end provides many opportunities for those outside
the church to come into contact with church life. Our ‘One Life’ seekers
course ran twice over the course of the year, once on Zoom and another
time in person.
St Michael’s also runs church family lunches once a month after the Sunday
morning service, a children’s dinner after every 4pm Sunday service, and
men’s breakfasts and women’s dinners once a term. These were postponed
throughout the pandemic, but returned in Summer 2021 once restrictions
had lifted.
Regenerate
Despite the delays and complications of the pandemic, we persevered with
our Regenerate Project and began the renovation of the St Michael’s
building in 2021. Generous donations from our church family and grants
allowed us to raise just over £90,000 prior to beginning the project.

Achievements against objectives
set
Our objectives for this year were:
a) Engage a contractor and begin the Regenerate building project
This target was achieved and renovation on our church building began in
August 2021.
b) Thoroughly review and enhance our safeguarding policies and
practices
Safeguarding policies and practices were reviewed over the course of the
year with the staff team, in particular, deadicating time to training, reading
and discussion around this issue.
c) Initiate a re-structuring of the staff team to ensure that every area
of church life is given adequate value and time.
The PCC adopted a new organisational structure based around the 5Ms
recommended by Rich Warren in his book,The Purpose Driven Church. This
divides our life as a church into five areas: Mission, Membership, Maturity,
Ministry and Magnification. Each area is led by a member of the staff team.
Other Our aims for next year will be:
A) To complete Regenerate and return the main activities of the church
to St Michael’s itself
B) To establish a new pattern of worship and ministry in the newly
refurbished building
C) To begin re-engaging with the local community.

Financial Review

Review of the charity’s financial
position at the end of the period
The summary of the charity’s income and expenditure is available in the
financial overview. It should be noted that due to the ongoing transfer
of assets from St Michael’s CIO (Charity Number: 1160287), some
transactions were completed by the St Michael’s CIO on behalf of the
PCC, and so appear in their accounts, which have also been made
available to the congregation. The PCC accounts give a financial
summary of both charities combined, which gives the best summary
position for the charity’s activity. Numbers below come from these
combined figures.
For the general (unrestricted) fund, the vast majority of income came
from voluntary receipts which increased by £9,507 from the 2020 figure.
Meanwhile, 2021 saw the resumption of many church activities
following significant COVID-19 related disruption in 2020. This led to
income from church activities of £5,642 including income from events
and statutory fees. Overall, St Michael’s recorded income of £281,252 in
2021.
The majority of the church’s general fund expenditure is on staffing, and
these costs remained relatively stable throughout 2021. Despite the
resumption of many church activities, running costs remained slightly
below 2020 levels. Meanwhile no expenditure on church repairs and
maintenance was required in 2021. Overall, St Michael’s recorded
expenditure of £213,904 in 2021; plus, a transfer of £55,000 to the
Pedley restricted fund.
As well as the general funds, fundraising for the Regenerate building
project continued through 2021, with building work commencing during
the second half of the year. There are also restricted funds for funding
ministry for Revd. Simon Pedley and for Toby Ling, as well as for the
PASS charity, providing advice for expecting parents of children with
pre-natal anomalies, and Love Refugees, fundraising for hosting a
refugee family.
Statement explaining the policy
for holding reserves stating why
they are held
The PCC resolves to build up reserves to a total of three months’ running
costs. This is to allow staff to be paid and ministry to continue in the
event of a funding crisis or cashflow difficulty. The PCC commits to
planned saving in future years in order to build up this reserve further.

(e.g unincorporated association,

The PCC is a body corporate
Trustee selection methods
including details of any
constitutional provisions e.g.
election to post or name of any
person or body entitled to
appoint one or more trustees
The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church
Representation Rules. At St. Michael’s, the membership of the PCC
consists of the incumbent (our vicar), churchwardens, a diocesan synod
representative, 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. 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. New members receive initial training into the workings of the
PCC.
The full PCC met six times during the year (three times over zoom during
the pandemic period and three times in person when pandemic
restrictions lifted). Given its wide responsibilities, the PCC has several
committees, each dealing with a particular aspect of parish life. These
committees, which include Finance, Employment, Building and
Regenerate fundraising committees, are all responsible to the PCC and
report back to it regularly with minutes of their recommendations being
received by the full PCC and discussed as necessary.
Two members of the PCC are also employees of the PCC, and due regard
is taken to ensuring that conflicts of interest are carefully managed.

Notes

On 30th November 2020, a deed of asset transfer was drawn up between the St Michael and St George Fulwell Mission Initiative ("the CIO") and The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Michael and St George Fulwell ("the St Michael's Fulwell PCC"). The deed states that all CIO assets are now legally due to the St Michael's Fulwell PCC. The St Michael's Fulwell PCC was set up as a successor charity to the CIO, to enable the Church of England church (to which both charities relate) to function as an ecclesiastical parish, as governed by the 1956 Parochial Church Council Powers Measure. A combined SOFA and statement of assets is available as note 9.

1. Accounting policies

Basis of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 in accordance with applicable accounting standards and the current Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities and applicable accounting standard FRS 102.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The financial statements include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the charity is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of church

3

groups that owe their main affiliation to another body, nor those that are informal gatherings of church members.

Fund accounting

Restricted funds comprise revenue donations or grants for a specific charitable activity intended by the donor.

Unrestricted funds are income funds that are to be spent on the charity's general purposes.

Incoming resources

Planned giving, collections and similar donations are recognised when received, even where the donor has indicated a likely level of future giving. Tax refunds are recognised when the incoming resource to which they relate is received. Grants are accounted for when the charity is entitled to the use of the resources, their ultimate receipt is considered reasonably certain and the amounts due are readily quantifiable. All incoming resources are accounted for gross.

Resources expended

Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding or constructive obligation on the charity. All other expenditure is generally recognised when it is incurred and is accounted for gross.

Fixed assets

Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight-line basis over four years. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £1000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

a. The church is undertaking the Regenerate project to raise funds to renovate the church building of St Michael and St George Fulwell (see note 8 for more details). Planned giving has come from people known to the Church, or part of the local community (Friends of St Michael's and Patrons). The Regenerate fund accounted for £33,337 of restricted giving here. The remainder (£2,400) was planned giving from members of the Church to PASS.

b. The restricted gift aid here was for the Regenerate building project (£30,154) and PASS (£600).

c. Grants comprised £2,500 from the Howard Foundation, £35,004 of restricted funds from the Co-Mission charity in support of Toby Ling's role, and restricted grants totalling £194,130 in support of the Regenerate building project from the Diocese of London (£166,375), DCMS (£2,755), and Garfield Weston (£25,000).

d. On 30th November 2020, a deed of asset transfer was drawn up between the St Michael and St George Fulwell Mission Initiative ("the CIO")and The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Michael and St George Fulwell ("the St Michael's Fulwell PCC"). The deed states that all CIO assets are now legally due to the St Michael's Fuwlell PCC. The St Michael's Fulwell PCC was set up as a successor charity to the CIO, to enable the Church of England church (to which both charities relate) to function as an ecclesiastical parish, as governed by the 1956 Parochial Church Council Powers Measure. Transfers totalling £759,982 were made in 2021 (including £651,558 accounted for in 2020 as funds owed plus additional transfers of £108,424 made of ongoing income). An amount of £14,911 is owed from the CIO to St Michael's PCC and is expected to be transferred during the course of 2022. A combined SOFA and statement of assets is available as note 9.

4. Tangible assets

The PCC has no tangible assets above the reporting threshold. The St Michael and St George Fulwell church building is the property of the Diocese of London, and they allow this to be used by the charity for worship and related church activities at no cost. The building is consecrated, so it is not included in the accounts, as a parallel to the arrangements for PCCs in s.10(2)(a) and (c) of the Charities Act 2011

The Regenerate Fund is the restricted fund which holds those funds being raised for the renovation of the St Michael and St George Fulwell church building.

The Pedley fund represents funding provided for the ministry costs of Rev Simon Pedley. External support for the post has been provided for the first few years of his ministry; however, 2022 will be final year of this funding after which the PCC will be taking on full responsibility for the Pedley ministry costs. We are grateful to external supporters for contributing to this fund. The fund pays for Mr Pedley's stipend, NI, tax, housing, and expenses.

The PASS fund is the restricted fund for the ministry of Mrs Lois Bunyan. Mrs Bunyan's ministry involves the creation of the PASS project, which provides information to parents who have had a recent diagnosis of foetal abnormality. The funds are used for operational costs.

The Love: Refugees Fund is a restricted fund to raise income for the Love: Refugees project to sponsor the resettlment of a refugee family in the local community, through the Home Office Community Sponsorship Scheme. Funds were given by people in the church and community.

The Ling Fund represents funding provided for the ministry costs of Toby Ling. External support has been provided for the post for the first few years of his ministry. The fund pays for Mr Ling's salary, tax, pension, and expenses.

Independent Examiner’s Report to the Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Michael and St George, Fulwell

I report on the accounts of the PCC of The Ecclesiastical Parish of St Michael and St George, Fulwell for the year ended 31 December 2021.

Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of Independent Examiner’s Report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the next statement.

Independent Examiner’s Statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

  1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: • to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act and

• to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or

  1. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
