All Saints Church Pocklington Trustees Report 2020
Aims and purposes
All Saints Church Pocklington Parochial Church Council (PCC) has the responsibility of cooperating with the incumbent in promoting the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical. The PCC is also specifically responsible for the maintenance of the church building of All Saints, The Pavement, Pocklington.
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 at All Saints. The PCC maintains an overview of worship within the parish and considers how our services can involve everyone living within our parish. Our services and worship aim to put faith into practice through prayer, scripture, music and sacrament.
When planning our activities for the year, we have considered the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and the supplementary guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. In particular we try to
enable everybody to live out their faith as part of our parish community through:
-
Worship and prayer; learning about the gospel; and developing knowledge and trust in Jesus
-
Provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish
-
Mission and outreach work
To facilitate these activities, it is important that we maintain the fabric of the church building.
Achievements and Performance
During the year we were very pleased to appoint our new incumbent Revd Dr Jake Belder as priest in charge of the Pocklington Group of churches. Jake was licenced on the 22[nd] September and it is expected that Jake will be appointed vicar when the re-ordering process of our group of churches is finalised.
Worship and Prayer
Despite being without an incumbent since March 2018 the PCC offered a range of services that we hope our community has found beneficial and spiritually uplifting. Our main Sunday worship has been Sung Eucharist using the more modern common worship liturgy, on 2 Sundays a month we offered Book of Common Prayer Holy Communion as well as a midweek service of either Morning Prayer or Holy
Communion. The first Sunday of the month is a Family Communion service, popular with all age groups but especially those with young families, at this service we also welcome the families of those who have been newly baptised. We have an occasional Sung Evensong and once a year hold a memorial service for those who have recently died. All are welcome to attend any of our services. We met for prayer for the sick on Monday at 12 noon and have weekly prayers on a Tuesday for the life and work of all the churches in our group. Special thanks to our hard-working ministry team. This pattern of services continued until we had to close for public worship at the start of the Covid-19 Pandemic in March 2020. We continued to offer written worship material by email or hand delivery and from May onwards offered a podcast service. In July we reopened for public worship within the Covid-19 government guidelines. During the lockdown in November we started to offer morning worship via Zoom.
As well as our regular services we offer the opportunity for our community to celebrate and thank God on their journey through life. These services were much reduced by the pandemic but through baptism we thank God for the gift of life and welcomed 1 child into our church. Three couples exchanged marriage
vows during wedding services in the year. We held 20 funerals in our church and the ministry team also officiated at 17 services in local crematoria and 6 graveside services at the local cemetery. At present we have 135 parishioners on the church electoral roll, 13 of whom are not resident in the parish, 1 name was added in the year and 1 removed having left the parish. The average weekly attendance was 72 prior to the Covid-19 Pandemic, since worship in church resumed in July an average of 45 attend in person and 20 via Zoom. Numbers usually increase at festival times, especially at Christmas.
Every Friday during term time Pocklington School usually hold a service of worship in our building led by the school chaplain. We have special connections with the local Church of England Infant School who every term hold an end of term service with special services at Harvest and Christmas and a leavers service at the end of summer term for year 2 pupils. The junior and senior schools in town come into church for services at Christmas and use the building for other occasional services or concerts. Some of these services took place but only within strict government safety guidelines. Every November we are involved in the town Remembrance Day service but this year the event was cancelled due to the pandemic.
Deanery synod
Three members of PCC attend deanery synod which provides an important link between the parish and the wider church. The rural dean is encouraging us to pool resources within the deanery and work more closely together.
Pastoral care
Some members of our church who are no longer able to attend church due to sickness or age are visited by the pastoral team, some also receive communion at home. Regular short services are held in local care homes. The work of the pastoral team was greatly reduced by the pandemic but contact was maintained by phone or letter. All members of the pastoral team undergo suitable training and are DBS checked to the appropriate level.
Mission
As an expression of our faith to help those in need 5% of our income from regular givers goes to charity. In 2020 we gave £2400 to 3 charities. We set 1% of giving aside for national and international disasters.
Ecumenical Relationship
We are a member of Churches Together in Pocklington. We hold occasional services together with Pocklington Methodist Church, Pocklington Roman Catholic Church and Pocklington Church Fellowship. Every year we participate in the week for Christian Unity and share lunch together. We usually meet together for a lent course and sometimes an advent course. In 2020 we were not able take part with the other churches in ‘The Big Sing’ in Burnby Hall Gardens.
Church Building
We want our building to be available to everyone and church is usually open every day for private prayer and for those interested in the history of our beautiful Grade1 listed building. We are the only large building in the town and are pleased to see the building used by the local community.
We held a meeting with our architect in March to plan maintenance work on our church building but were not able to proceed with major works due to restrictions imposed by Covid 19 lockdown rules other than basic maintenance.
We have a Friends of All Saints group who raise funds to help keep the building in good repair.
The Covid 19 Pandemic seriously curtailed our usual activities reducing income from coffee mornings and room hire. Mothers Union and our under-fives group were unable to continue to meet, but we look forward to being able to restart these activities when circumstances allow.
We support Pocklington’s fair trade initiative and would usually host a monthly fair trade sales table. Our historic peal of 8 bells which are rung most Sundays by the local bell ringing team have been quiet for most of the year due to the pandemic.
All bookings for use of the church buildings are made via the administrators, employed by the PCC to do various administrative tasks.
Financial Review
The PCC in 2019 registered with the Charity Commission as the turnover was approaching £100,000 and will continue to do so into the future.
The unrestricted funds are the Accumulated Fund which had receipts of £ 70,872 this year and payments were £77,056 resulting in a net movement in the year of £8,184 compared with £5,894 in 2019. The restricted fund is the Fabric Fund which had receipts of £1,668 and a legacy of £3,000 and payments of £342.
The Receipts and Payments account shows the receipts from our planned giving, loose collections, donations and income tax recovered through the gift aid scheme. These are followed by other voluntary receipts which are analysed on page 2. These are mainly fund raising events and fees retained by PCC for services such as funerals and weddings. The lower part shows the payments which includes the Diocesan parish share. The other payments analysed on page 3 relate to fund raising costs and other expenses of the Church. The PCC have set aside again 5% of its giving for charities chosen by the congregation and 1% to match fund any donations to special disaster appeals. Excluded from these accounts are donations at funerals which were paid to the chosen charity amounting to £6,595.01.
The overall receipts are down compared to last year but fortunately the planned giving held up and one legacy was received and moved to the Fabric account.
The Consolidated Balance Sheet of the Church with an Accumulated Fund of £ 42,881 with the main investments being with London based Church Board of Finance and cash at Lloyds Bank. Specific funds have now been separated from the Accumulated Fund and relate to donations and youth work.
The Balance Sheet also shows the Fabric fund which is analysed on page 5 and the Endowment Fund and specific funds on page 6.
Reserves policy
It is PCC policy to try to maintain a balance on unrestricted funds which equates to six months unrestricted payments. This takes account of the commitment to the parish share and the employment of the administrators. This is equivalent to £50,000. It is held to smooth out fluctuations in cash flow and to meet emergencies. The pandemic has impacted on the accounts and the balance available may fluctuate for the time being.
This is presently covered by the net cash balances and the investment with the CBF and held as unrestricted funds at year end and total £42,881.
The balance of £68,388 in the Fabric Fund is to meet the costs arising from the latest quinquennial and other church improvements approved by the PCC.
Investment Policy
It is the policy of the PCC to keep monies required for its purposes in the bank and invest the surplus funds in the Church of England Deposit Fund administered by CCLA.
There are two long term endowments which are managed on our behalf by CCLA and two permanent endowments managed by the York Diocesan Board of Finance on our behalf. The capital of the funds cannot be spent and the income is to be used in line with the terms of the original bequest.
Independent Examiner’s report
The report is also attached. Garbutt and Elliott have undertaken this work and they have carried out a very thorough examination in accordance with the guidance written by the Charity Commission.
Volunteers
We want to thank all those who, under normal circumstances, volunteer in so many ways and work hard making coffees, organising fundraising events, helping at services, pastoral visiting, outreach events, check cash and ensure it is banked. To our churchwardens, church treasurer, fabric committee and ministry team who have worked hard on our behalf, especially during the vacancy.
Structure, governance, and management
The method of appointment to PCC is by nomination by electoral roll members, as set out in the Church Representation Rules. At All Saints, the PCC consists of the vicar (chair), churchwardens, elected church members and up to 3 deanery synod representatives.
PCC members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the parish including decisions on how the funds of PCC are spent. New members are given some training into the workings of PCC.
PCC usually meets 10 times a year with an average attendance of 80%. Three meetings were cancelled due the pandemic and the APCM and AGM was postponed until 8[th] November. Responsibility for finance, fabric and fund raising has been delegated to sub-committees who report back to PCC at each meeting to make recommendations for PCC’s approval.

I report on the financial statements of the Parochial Church Council (PCC) for the year ended 31 December 2020.
I report to the trustees on my examination of the receipt and payments accounts of the for the year ended 31 December 2020.
This report is made solely to the PCC’s members, as a body, in accordance with Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My independent examination work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner's Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the PCC and the PCC's Members as a body, for my independent examination work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the PCC’s members you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the PCC’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent Examiner’s Statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the PCC as required by section 130 of the Act; or
