OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The object of the Area Meeting (AM) is the furtherance of the general religious and charitable purposes of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) in Britain, in the area of Hampshire and Islands Meetings and beyond. The principal activity is the holding of meetings for worship in the constituent local Meetings. The Area Meeting meets the public benefit test of the Charity Commission by providing facilities to support its activities, including the provision of places of worship that are open to the public. The General Committee confirms that it has complied with the requirements of Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011, to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

The Area Meeting, which meets regularly during the year, is the primary meeting for church business affairs in Hampshire and Islands. Its role is to develop and maintain a Quaker community of Friends, a family of local meetings in which Friends gather for worship and spiritual enrichment. It provides a balance between worship, mutual support, administration, learning, deliberation and social life and builds up the spiritual life of its members and attenders. It is the main route of communication between Friends in its local meetings and Britain Yearly Meeting (BYM), the body responsible for Quaker church affairs and witness at national level.

In order to provide the required support to local meetings, the Area Meeting also arranges for:

The Area Meeting is also jointly responsible with Bournemouth Coastal Area Quaker Meeting for the Hampshire, South East Dorset and Islands Quaker Gathering which meets twice a year.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities

Area Meeting met in session eight times during 2024, seven via Zoom, and one blended (Zoom and face to face) meeting at Alton. The full General Committee met eight times in 2024 via Zoom. The Finance subcommittee and Human Resources subcommittee met on numerous occasions during the year, all via Zoom.

Local meetings continued to offer worship on a regular basis. Following the sale of Portsmouth Meeting House, Friends have been hiring a room within the Unitarian church in Portsmouth as well as meeting on alternate Sundays via Zoom. Five local meetings are equipped for blended meetings. To support fellowship there have been, among other things, discussions, social gatherings, and study groups (in person and via Zoom). Post-Covid there was a desire to meet more often in person as a spiritual and social community and so we met in Southampton Meeting House in February for a spiritually focused gathering led by Kate McNally, which was one of the highlights of 2024, together with a celebration of the 400th anniversary of the birth of George Fox held in July.

Strengthening our meetings

With the help of our Communications Coordinator, work on improving the Area Meeting and local meeting websites continued and this has brought newcomers and raised the profile of Quakerism in our area. A report on strengthening and simplifying our structures was presented to Area Meeting in July. It recognized the on-going need for improved succession planning in view of our aging and declining membership. This was evident in the request made during the year by Alderney local meeting to become a Worshipping Group, as they were too small and elderly a group to provide all the volunteers needed to run a local meeting.

General Committee Meetings during 2024

The General Committee was involved in general oversight, on behalf of the Area Meeting, as well as a number of specific issues:

Safeguarding

Our Area Meeting Safeguarding Coordinator and Deputy Safeguarding Coordinator are both full members of the General Committee of charity trustees, and sit on the Human Resources subgroup which includes safeguarding. Each local meeting has a safeguarding coordinator or contact and they can contact the AM coordinators at any time. The coordinators have helped local meetings deal with various safeguarding issues over the year. These have all been about vulnerable or challenging adults and are all in hand. In 2024 all enhanced DBS checks for those working with children or supporting vulnerable adults in pastoral care were completed.

In the Channel Islands there is now a safeguarding contact on behalf of Jersey and Guernsey local meetings (Alderney having been laid down as a formal Quaker meeting). Updating of DBS checks is underway.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Environmental Sustainability

Area Meeting’s Sustainability Action Group (AMSAG), met ten times during 2024 and reported to each Area Meeting for business. It looked at resources such as books, podcasts and programmes that were helpful in finding ways forward and informing about the current state of the climate crisis. In January, Christelle Blunden spoke about “active hope”, something that is much needed. Although AMSAG meetings are normally held via Zoom, in June there was a welcome opportunity for an in-person meeting at Southampton meeting house just before the General Election where ways to encourage local MPs to take sustainability issues seriously and suggestions of questions to put to candidates at hustings were discussed.

Throughout 2024 the issue of Ecocide and the lack of response from Britain Yearly Meeting to the Area Meeting’s request that BYM affiliate to the “Stop Ecocide Campaign” occupied the group. It was a time of considerable frustration with regard to this concern. By the end of the year it became evident that we had done all we could on the issue with BYM only committing to a 'watching brief' on the matter. It was agreed that a different agenda and speakers from other issues of sustainability would be arranged in 2025.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

The Statement of Financial Activities of the Area Meeting includes the funds of the eleven Local Meetings and the McBain Fund. The funds held by the Area Meeting at 31st December 2024 are £3,022,186 (2023 £2,883,421). We made a surplus of £303,741 (2023: surplus £54,045) before revaluations i.e. not including the “notional” changes in value of our properties and stock-market investments. The notional value of our investments decreased by £576 (2023: increase of £45,364). The surplus actually hides a deficit of £65,668 before inclusion of the net sale proceeds of Portsmouth Meeting House, £369,409.

We received no legacies for AM general use and £22,271 for Winchester Local Meeting, £2,000 for Alton Local Meeting and £500 for Andover in 2024 (2023: £46,102 for AM general use and £45,000 for Southampton Local Meeting). Restricted funds (legacies and trusts with restrictive conditions) belonging to Local Meetings are shown separately from Area Meeting restricted funds. Some Local Meeting restricted funds are managed by Area Meeting. Local Meetings' unrestricted general funds, and those legacy funds for which there is no stronger restriction than that they are left to a particular Local Meeting, are listed as designated funds of the Area Meeting.

Most of the income required by the Area Meeting for its general purposes is contributed by Local Meetings, by a formula based on the number of members and attenders in each Meeting. At 31st December 2024 the membership of the Area Meeting was 242 plus 124 attenders (December 2023: 250 plus 138 attenders). The total income from contributions to AM and LMs in 2024 was £104,797 (2023: £89,829). Meeting House hirings in 2024 brought in £72,669 (2023: £65,689). Expenditure on hardship grants by the restricted McBain fund was £3,546 (2023: £18,917). Advertising the McBain fund nationally in "The Friend" continues to draw applicants from outside the Area Meeting.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Investments and Savings

We expected to spend out the McBain Fund but applications were few and £29,927 of the Fund remains in our savings accounts at the end of 2024 (£33,970 at end 2023).

Our stock-market investments are managed by Rathbone Greenbank, which monitors their performance and makes minor adjustments to try to counter adverse market conditions. They nevertheless made a loss of 0.2% in notional value. Over the year the Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation measure fell from 3.2% in March to 2.5% in December. We raised a query with our financial adviser Mike Head of Ethical Investors Ltd. and met him on 1st April 2025 to review our Rathbone Greenbank-managed investments. We receive regular notifications of significant purchases and disposals of investments within our portfolio.

Given the disappointing performance and continuing volatility of the stock market, we chose not to invest further funds there in 2024. We received the proceeds of sale of Portsmouth Meeting House £369,409 in October 2024 and placed this in our Epworth “Cash Plus for Charities” savings account, where the interest rate in 2024 fell from 5.33% in January to 4.70% in November-December. (Epworth earns interest on this account by short-term lending to a set of major banks screened for financial reliability, and engages vigorously with their managements over ethical lending policy).

The AM had two employees on general work and three on wardenship duties at Winchester Meeting House at the beginning of 2024. At the end of the year there was one employee on general work, the Communications Co-ordinator, paid for out of the Nott legacy; and three wardens. General Committee agreed in 2024 to the outsourcing of payroll functions for all AM employees, and this was taken on by Smallman and Co. in July 2024.

Reserves policy

The AM follows Britain Yearly Meeting's model policy, which is that unrestricted funds cover:

  1. Known future spending commitments;

  2. An estimate of the next five years' large property repair costs;

  3. A provision for a reduction in voluntary income;

  4. A reserve of three months' expenditure to cover cash flow fluctuations.

and that surpluses to this amount should be spent within ten years and deficits made up within five years. We estimated the above amounts from the past five years’ accounts with an inflator of 3.6% (was 3.3%) on the property repair costs, as ~£474k. Our unrestricted and undesignated reserves from Note 19 below are ~£1,191k so we have an excess of ~£717k. This is mostly the proceeds of sale of Portsmouth Meeting House, on the designation of which the AM has yet to decide. The AM is keeping reserves under review as risks evolve.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Hampshire & Islands Area Quaker Meeting

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Hampshire & Islands Area Quaker Meeting

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Hampshire & Islands Area Quaker Meeting (the Trust) for the year ended 31st December 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust 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 Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales which is one of the listed bodies.

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:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Hampshire & Islands Area Quaker Meeting

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31st December 2024

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

In the event of the winding up of the CIO, the members will not have any liability to contribute to its assets, nor any personal responsibility for settling its debts and liabilities.

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

The financial statements incorporate the affairs of Hampshire & Islands Area Quaker Meeting and the 10 Local Meetings with separate accounts, being:

Alderney Guernsey Portsmouth
Alton Isle of Wight Southampton
Andover Jersey Winchester
Basingstoke

Financial reporting standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The charity has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland':

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Donations and gifts are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable.

Legacy gifts are recognised on a case by case basis following grant of probate and when the Charity has been notified of the amount and settlement date.

Investment income is recognised on a receivable basis and is shown gross of income tax recovered and recoverable. Other income is accounted for on the basis of amounts receivable for the year.

In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), unpaid general volunteer time is not recognised in the financial statements.

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the Year Ended 31st December 2024

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

All expenses are claimed retrospectively against receipts, or paid directly against a service provider’s invoice rather than through the claimant. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Raising funds

These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, the management of investments and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.

Charitable activities

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the Charity in delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Tangible fixed assets

The Charity owns a number of functional properties comprising Meeting Houses, wardens' accommodation and their contents, and other buildings used by the Charity including burial grounds. These properties are held in perpetuity for Meetings for Worship or other charitable activities, and contribute to the furtherance of Hampshire and Islands Area Quaker Meeting's charitable objectives and are considered to be heritage assets under FRS 102.

The remaining fixed assets are carried at cost, net of depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis: Computer equipment - 25% straight line

Meeting Houses and other buildings

There is £nil cost and £nil accumulated depreciation recognised for these heritage assets, as allowable under Section 18 of FRS 102. Whilst it is believed that the market value, both at the time of acquisition and at the balance sheet date, was significantly in excess of £nil deemed cost and net book value, it is not possible to obtain a reliable estimate of the market value at either date. Conventional valuation techniques are not appropriate for the unique and historical nature of the assets.

Contents of Meeting Houses

The contents of Meeting Houses have also been recognised at £nil cost and £nil accumulated depreciation as it s impracticable and an inefficient use of the Charity's resources to value the specific items in the following categories: pianos, Quaker artwork, library books and other contents.

Burial Grounds

In view of the costs and difficulties in the disinterment and removal of human remains, the market value of such sites is minimal. For valuation purposes they are therefore assessed at £nil value.

Investments

Fixed asset investments are included at market value at the balance sheet date.

In accordance with standard valuation practice, investment properties have been valued on the basis of a capitalised rental stream applying a 5% yield. Since most of these properties are tenanted, they could not be sold with vacant possession and so an investment approach is considered more appropriate.

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the Year Ended 31st December 2024

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Investments

Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and their market value at the start of the year, or their subsequent cost, and are charged or credited to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period of disposal.

Unrealised gains and losses represent the movement in market value during the year and are credited or charged to the Statement of Financial Activities based on the market value at the end of the year.

Taxation

The Charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

The Charity is not registered for VAT and is therefore unable to recover VAT on any expenditure it incurs.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds set aside at the discretion of the trustees for specific purposes.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

13. HERITAGE ASSETS

As described in the accounting policies above, there is a cost and accumulated depreciation of £nil for the Meeting Houses and wardens' accommodation owned and used by the Charity for worship and charitable activities. The buildings are maintained by the Charity for their contribution to knowledge and culture of the Quaker faith. It would be impracticable and an inefficient use of the Charity's funds to obtain market valuations for such unique assets and their contents. A description of each of the assets is given below, together with the year in which each Meeting House was constructed. On the basis of the age of the properties, had the original costs been capitalised, the Trustees consider that the assets would have been fully depreciated at the balance sheet date. No reliable information exists to include original cost and accumulated depreciation amounts.

The Charity is the beneficial owner of the following heritage asset properties:

15. FIXED ASSET INVESTMENTS

There were no investment assets outside the UK.

The listed investments are held in a diversified portfolio of unit trusts, as agreed with our advisors, Ethical Investors Group. Following a review of the investment strategy the AM initiated a rearrangement of the funds to conform more closely with its investment strategy. The single unlisted investment of £10,000 is a share in a UK alternative energy community enterprise, PEC Renewables, this was disposed of during 2024.

The value of the Area Meeting's investment properties is calculated with a standard formula of the current rents charged representing 5% of the value.

A one-seventh share in a property in Jersey, "La Chasse", which was bequeathed to Jersey LM but cannot be realised at present, has an estimated value of £125,000, unchanged since 2020. This has been added to the value of investment property.

The value of the property Hannah House, managed by lessee Southern Housing Ltd. on the Hunnyhill Quaker Burial Ground site, Isle of Wight, on which it has a long lease expiring on 31/12/2115, is calculated as £4,500 applying the same 5% rate to the annual rent of £225.

Portsmouth Meeting House was sold on 11/10/2024 for £380,000 to a buyer who made a pre-auction offer on 16/07/2024 after it had been entered into an auction by Pearsons Estate Agents scheduled for 17/07/2024. We received £369,409.89 net. We had an independent valuation of £360,000 - £380,000 by Nesbits Chartered Surveyors on 20/11/2023. The Meeting House had been purchased in 1955 for £3,250. Two investment properties, the Flat (formerly wardens’ flat) and Cottage, were included in the sale and have been removed from the 2024 list of investment properties; they have contributed £126,000 and £96,000, respectively, to the 2023 valuations.

The properties and their values are:

Investment Property Market Value
Upper Flat (formerly warden's flat) in Alton Meeting House 192,000
Private G/F Studio Flat in Alton Meeting House 144,000
Upper Flat (formerly wardens' flat), Basingstoke Meeting House 228,000
Cottage (formerly wardens' flat) in grounds of Southampton Meeting House 228,000
One-seventh share of "La Chasse", Jersey 125,000
