All Saints Church Kenley
Aims and purpose
All Saints Church Parochial Church Council (PCC) works with the incumbent, the Reverend Justine Middlemiss in promoting the in the parish the mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical.
Our incumbent is also the priest in charge of our neighbouring parish Saint Barnabas, Purley.
Objectives and Activities
The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of the parish community. The PCC maintains an overview of worship and works with the incumbent to provide services that can involve the many groups of people that live in the parish.
When planning our activities for the year, we are mindful of the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and the supplementary guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. We try to enable 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.
-
Outreach work.
We seek to develop our life together as we affirm individual strengths; value diversity; nurture growth, vocations and leadership; work towards accessibility and respect and sustain our environment.
To facilitate this work, we must maintain the fabric of All Saints Church and its church hall.
Achievements and Performance
Our main service each week is the Eucharist with a variety of musical styles. Additionally, there is a midweek communion service and an 8 am communion service each Sunday.
In 2020 the Covid-19 pandemic caused the suspension of all public worship in mid-March and the closure of all church buildings with the first national lockdown.
Since Rev Middlemiss had responsibility for two parishes, it was decided that the celebration of the Eucharist was provided by way of a single livestreamed service each Sunday at 10.00 am for both parishes. Parishioners at home were invited to share in spiritual communion.
After the service, participants were invited to stay and were put randomly into small breakout rooms so that some social interaction could take place. In May church buildings were allowed to open for individual prayer. Public services
resumed in July and these were live streamed so that parishioners who were shielding or who weren’t yet confident about being with other people in a building, could still participate in the service.
A second lockdown lasting a month occurred from early November.
The hall was also closed so all activities there stopped. Scouts and Guides managed to continue with the use of Zoom.
The average attendance for the public services was 75. When in church services were resumed, the risk assessment determined that a maximum of 30 people could attend.
The pandemic impacted greatly on the life events services such as baptisms, weddings and funerals. There were no baptisms or weddings in 2020. A small number of funeral services took place and these were livestreamed over Zoom so that family and friends who could not attend to service were able watch and participate remotely.
At the start of 2020, there were sufficient funds for the PCC to agree to a new kitchen to be fitted.
Contracts had been signed before the pandemic started. A risk assessment established that the fit could go ahead safely following the Covid-19 lockdown rules.
Structure, Governance and Management
The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules and the legal Scheme.
The All Saints Kenley PCC consists of the incumbent, a non stipendiary priest, the two Churchwardens, the Deanery Synod representatives and 9 members elected by those members of the congregation on the electoral roll. All those who attend our services 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 how the funds of the PCC are to be spent.
PCC members are either ex-officio, elected by the Annual Parochial Church Meeting (the APCM) holding office for three years, or co-opted by the PCC. Members of the Deanery Synod are ex-officio members of the PCC, holding office for three years; they are also elected by the APCM. All appointments and elections are done in accordance with the Church Representation Rules 2020. PCC members who have served at any time from 1st January 2020 until the date this report was approved are:
Incumbent: The Revd Justine Middlemiss Chairperson Churchwarden: Mr Michael Stock Churchwarden vacant Deanery Synod Mrs Nicki Howe Mrs Julia Van der Vord Mr Clair Kellaway
Elected Members Mr Peter Bedwell (secretary) Mrs Andrea Gostick (treasurer) Mr Gerald Bodmer Mrs Ros Shepherd Mr Tony Williams Mrs Ann Jones Mr Frank Widdowson

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31st December 2020 which are set out on pages 1 to 6.
Independent Examiner's Report to the PCC
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011(The Act) and to be found in the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 (The Regulations). That examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the PCC and a comparison of the accounts with those records. It also includes considering any unusual items for disclosures in the financial statements and seeking from you as trustees explanations concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in a full audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Respective responsibilities of the PCC and the examine
As members of the PCC, you are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records and for preparing accounts which have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations.
You are also responsible for determining whether, in respect of the year (and the preceding two years), the PCC meets the conditions for exemption from an audit of the accounts set out in section 144(1) of the Act and the Regulations, and for providing me with information and explanations required for my examination.
I shall plan my work on the basis that an independent examiner’s report on the accounts is required for the year unless you inform me in writing to the contrary. As an independent examiner I have a statutory duty to state in my report whether any matter has come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect:
a) accounting records have not been properly kept in accordance with section 130 of the Act; or
b) the accounts do not accord with the accounting records or do not comply with the Regulations
I also have a statutory duty to disclose in my report matters coming to my attention in connection with the examination to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
Should my work lead me to conclude that the PCC is not entitled to exemption from an audit of the accounts or should I be unable to reach a conclusion on this matter, then I will not issue any report and will notify you in writing of the reasons. In these circumstances, if appropriate, I will discuss with you the need to appoint an auditor.
Independent Examiner's Statement
In connection with my examination, no matters have come to my attention
-
which give me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with s.130 of the Act; or
-
to prepare accounts which accord with these accounting records have not been met; or
-
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
