2025 Report and Accounts for the Parochial Church
Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Philipi Norbury.
Registered charity number 1185830
Annual Report of the Trustees (PCC) for 2025
AIMS and PURPOSES:
st philip's Parochial Church Council IPCCI has the responsibility of cooperating with the incumbent
Vicar, the Reverend Cordella Dawson, who was Collated to the benefice on 25 May 2022, in
promoting in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social
and ecumenlcal.
The PCC is also specifically responsible for the flnances and maintenance of St Phllip's Chtjrch, Church
Hall complex and groLJnds.
Within our overaiching aim we proclaim our mSsslon to be captured in this statement:
Gmw in Christ,
Reoch out Serve, Welcome
Following a process of consultatlon, prayer, reflection and revlew which began with a Parish Mission
Day in June 2024 a new MAP and updated Mission Statement were launched on Easter Day, 2025. The
three-year plèn will continue bkjilding on the community's generosity, including through the
stewardship scheme, so the community of St Phlllp'5 can increasingly experience the joy of SUPPDrting
its church and doing God's work in our parish.
WORSHIP:
Servers, robed choir and Challce a5SlStants particlpate in principal services. The rota for lav
participation in intercessions and readings on Sundays and principal feast days welcomed and reloiced
In some new volunteers.
Within a 'relaxed-Catholic" tradition of worship, 5t philip's caters for the spiritual needs and interests
of 211. There is a weekly Holy Communion service on a Wednesday morning alon8 Wlth morning prayer
on a Tuesday and Thursday, Sunday services of Holy Communion each week and Choral Evensong
approximately every other week Iduring school term timel.
During the year vislting celebrants / preachers / speakers were welcomed for the enjoyable variety of
different perspectives they brought to the parish eucharists including the Easter Vigil.
A full choir of 40+ boy trebles and male lower (Alto, Tenor, Bass) voices enhances the worshlp
throughout the year with a repertoire and standard of singing usually associated with Cathedra15. This
is a particular feature of St philip's which is supported and nurtured by the PCC. The vacancy for an
Assistant Organist, has been plugged with home talent from the choir community providing a platform
for young mu5iclans to practice and progress their playing skills and to work alongside the Musical
Director, Sam Coates. Those young people and others in a pool of relief organists have also provided
continuity of music when the choir is away.
The electoral roll reset and totally renewed in May 2025 and the certificate records a roll of 50 Ithere
were 93 in 20241 but the resultlngdrop In numbers from the pruning had been an anticipated outcome
due to the natural churn in the congregation.
The PCC is commltted to bulld God's kingdom, which correlates with the Diocesan rmlssion to be Christ
Centred 3nd Outward Focused, whllst also deslring to "grow yoyng" and use resources wisely and
prudently to repair and maintain the fabric of the church and church hall and keep everyone safe.

OBJECTIVES and AcfiviTIES:
The PCC, elected by the congregation, is faithful to articulatin& and living Out, our vision of what we
want to be and what our mission means to our parish. The church building is shared, under a formal
agreement. with the A55embly of the First Born. A comrnunity of Urdu-5peaking Pakistani Christians,
some of whom are on the electoral roll of St Philip's, gathers regularly to worship In thelr own
language.
The PCC remains committed to priority plans to refurbish the toilets in the h311 which will improve
disabled access but has scaled back the extent of the work desPlte permission from Croydon Council
to proceed. Funds for this critical improvement remain ring-fenced in the budget. Following
significant issue with the boilers, just before christmas 2024, which continued through 2025,
warmth is being provided by temporary, hired plant. The PCC has consulted expelt advice- and
will engage actively with the Diocese, having due regard for the move towards 5U5tainable energy, to
find a long term solution to replace the central heating systems which serve the church and the hall
omplex. Expenslve monitoring and exploratory I remedial works continued during 2025 in relation to
cracks in the thurch building and the PCC is engaged with our architect, professlonal bodies, spÈcl31Sst
engineers and our insurers, in this regard.
We are increasingly mindful that with so many maintenance challenges taking time and energyi
volunteer church officers and PCC members need to pay attention to their own wellbeing, prayers,
spiritual needs and desire to worship. The PCC is very aware of the, sometimes excessive, demands
made of volunteers and 15 committed.to encouraging new people to step up and offer thelr talents,
skills and time to take on responsibilities,. to serve on the PCC or, with willing hands, to support the
running and maintenance of the church and hall to spread the load. It recognlses that whllst this is 3
momentous challenge for PCCS across the nation it is a signlficant one for St Philip's.
ACHIEVEMENTS and PERFORMANCE:
In May 2025 the PCC employed a part time Parish Administrator IPA), based in the parish office in the
church hall to SUPPOTt the day to day running of St philip's. Working 10 hours a week over three
mornings the post-holder provides a vttal on-site point of contact for visitors, maintenance and those
wlshing to vlew the church halls. This has relieved some admSnistrative tasks delivered by volunteers
alongside the Vicar including production of key information such as the weekly pew sheet and the
quarterly printed Parish magazine which is circulated, by subscription, far beyond the Parish boundary.
Due to the often-overwhelming reliance on volunteers in the Church of England, which St Philip's is
not immune to, the PCC regards investing in employing a PA as an important achievement.
The contactless payment devi￿ is firmly embedded as a valuable method of generous giving at St
Philip's. Visitors, especially those from overseas, welcome the'tap to give" option of supporting God's
work at St Philip's. Contactless has also been used successfully at fundraising events and, with a Parish
Administrator In post, could be used for payment of hire charges for the halls.
Avaried, if slimmed down, programme of social, fundraising and outreach activities was offered during
2025, orchestrated by a sub-committee of the PCC, the Social Committee, including a parish day out
to Chichester, summer barbecues, shared lunch to celebrate the diversity of our parish, a Christmas
tea party and a Christma5 Fair. Two succe55ful cake sales were held to raise fund5 for other ch8ritie5.
An early spring Sunday evening concert byvisiting ensemble the St Bart's Ch3mberOrchestra attracted
a wlder audlence to St Phllip's.
The ha115 are well occupled by regular hlrers creating good links with families in the Ioc31 community.
They include a busy local Dance Academy providing classes from age 3 to adulthood,. a popular weeklv
Playtime parent and toddler group,. two badminton clubs and 3 karate club. The table tennis club

residents, association holds monthly committee meetings in the hall whilst another stages an annual
barn dance. The halls are also home to Irish Dance competition days. Modest ch8rges paid by hall
users delivors 3 major income stream to the churth with regular use topped up by ad hoc functions
including children's birthday parties and life events. The hall is run by 3 volunteer Manager and an
Assistant Manager and a paid cleaner I handypeison employed by the PCC. The PCC is aware that
upkeep of the hall facillties is vital to preserve this flnancial and community asset. Future Investment
wlll address safety and security of the premises and refurbishment of the toilets and decor.
The PCC appointed an Architect, Sue Kent, to undertake the Quinquennial Inspection (Qll in June 2019
and rèappointed her to complete the QI in June 2024. The PCC is working closely with her on matters
relating to the cracks in the west walls of the church. Whilst we may have grown used to the ugly, but
necessary, internal propping up of the area the PCC acknowledges thatthe congregation looks forward
to the time when the results of monitoring lead to satisfactory repair and restoration- likely to be in
late 2026.
In August 2025, the Hon Secr¢taryfiled a seriou5 incident report1829023I with the Charity Commission
on behalf of the PCC and on the advice of the Diocesan Secretariat regarding a significant data breach
on 31, July 2025 also repo
kted to the Information Commlssioner's Offlce. The incident was not
brèach of our system but wa¥,a breach of the systems at APCS IAccess Personal Checking services Ltd)
I Intr3dev- a partner organis
tion providing criminal record checking to the PCC via the Diocese. The
data breach potentially comp [mised the personal data of one person at st Philip's. The Diocese I
national church paused and subsequently withdrew from using APCS for processing disclosure
applications. Apart from confirming receipt of the report there has been no further Correspondence
with the Charlty Commission on this matter.

Notes from the Treasurer
2025 was an unprecedented yearfor St philip's. We spent far more than In previou5 years, though
in almost all cases thi5 was essential work to maintain the fabric and safety of the Church and Hall
for all who use them.
Thls emphasi5 on safety and maintenance will continue into 2026 as we work to complete several
long-running projects, including the crack repair, the boiler replacement and improvements to
Hall safety.
Our overall fund5 are limlted and have fallen by more than £300,000 since the end of 2024. Income
has remained flat and is not keeping pace with rising costs, which means we will continue to draw
increasingly on our reserves for day-to-day expenses. The priority for 2026 must therefore be to
grow our Income while belng èxtremely thoughtful and intentional about how we LEse our
resources.

As our spending increases, so does the need to ensure that we manage our Ilmlteil resource5
responsibly. The development of clearer policies and processes for financial Eovernance should
dive us all confidence that the PCC intends to exercise Strong over51ght and appropriate controls
in this area.
The PCC wlll also develop a financial growth strategyto help us makethe most of everyopportunity
to increase our income. It will he reviewed at each PCC to ensure we keep growing wisely and
sustainably. Our ongoing work on the m15sion action plan guides our strong desire not only to
grow numerically by serving others, but also to strengthen our faith.
I would Ilke to express my slncere thanks to everyone who supports St Phllip's-through
stewardship, donations, fundraising and participation. Your generosity enables us to meet our
costs and sustain OLJr mlssion in Norbury.
