Structure, Governance and Management

The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of The A453 Churches of South Nottinghamshire (The 453 Churches) is a registered charity, number 1189059 (registered address The New Rectory, 39 Leake Road, Gotham NG11 0HW). The Parochial Church Council (PCC) registered as a charity in April 2020.

As a church within the Church of England, the A453 Churches is constituted within the Parochial Church Councils (Powers) Measure 1956. Members of the Parochial Church Council are either ex-officio or elected by the Annual Parochial Church Meeting (APCM) in accordance with the Church Representation Rules and, by dint of membership, become the charity's Trustees. All Church attendees are encouraged to register on the Church Electoral Roll and to consider standing for election to the PCC. PCC members are required to complete a HMRC Fit and Proper Persons Declaration.

The PCC has met every other month. The PCC is responsible for policy approvals and decisions, approval of significant non-routine expenditure, identification, assessment and mitigation of risks, and other significant decision making including the ratification of any proposals submitted by church sub-committees. Our Safeguarding Officer continues to ensure that the PCC complies with its duty under section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016 (duty to have regard to House of Bishops' guidance on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults).

ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

Annual Report

Introduction and Background

During 2019 the five separate parishes of Barton-in-Fabis, Gotham, Kingston-on-Soar, Ratcliffe-on-Soar, and Thrumpton made the decision to join together into a single parish, The A453 Churches of South Nottinghamshire. This occurred on 1[st] June 2019. The A453 Churches PCC has the responsibility of cooperating with the Incumbent, Revd Richard Coleman, in promoting the whole mission of the Church - pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. It also has oversight of the financial affairs of the parish churches of St George's Church Barton-inFabis, St Lawrence Church Gotham, St Winifred's Church Kingston-on-Soar, Holy Trinity Church Ratcliffe-onSoar, and All Saints Church Thrumpton and responsibility for the maintenance of the buildings and for St Lawrence Church Hall Gotham. St George's Church Barton-in-Fabis has connected charities: The Unknown Donors Charity (216015)

Church Lands (subsidiary 1) - income to be spent on the upkeep of the church.

Objectives and Activities

The A453 Churches has a public duty and charge to the "cure (care) of souls" for the Ecclesiastical Parish of The A453 Churches of South Nottinghamshire. The overall ministry and work of the PCC and the Clergy routinely embraces this charge. All of the Churches services and activities are accessible and open to the general public living within and beyond the Parish boundaries. As an Anglican church we serve parishioners through the arrangement of baptisms, funerals, and weddings. Additionally at Christmas, Easter and Harvest we run specific services and events for the wider community and on Remembrance Sunday we meet our civic responsibilities to the Parish. 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. In particular, we try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our communities through:

Worship and prayer; learning about the Good News of Jesus; and developing their knowledge and trust in Jesus.
Provision of pastoral care for people living in the Parish.
Missionary and outreach work.

To facilitate this work it is important that we maintain the fabric of our five churches and the church hall in Gotham.

Worship and Prayer

The number of people on the Parish Electoral Roll during the year was 102 (93 in 2020) and the average weekly attendance at Sunday Services, counted during October was 90, but this number increased at festivals and family services. Our churches reopened on Easter Day and have remained open at different times during the week to the community for private prayer with details of who to contact on the noticeboard outside each church. St Lawrence Church Gotham is open on a Saturday morning providing refreshments and is well attended by folk from the village. Our Family Fun Service, which is held once a month at 4pm and is run by lay people in the Church has struggled to return to pre-pandemic levels since re-starting in September. We continue to have a number of lay people who lead services on a regular basis at four of the five churches. We also have 2 lay people preaching regularly each month, with a third person currently half way through a two year preaching course. Our online service continues to be available via our website which has attracted people from the wider community; and for the church members who are not online we have continued the printed service sheet and sermon for them each week. We also supported the National Day of Reflection and bells being rung at Gotham, Ratcliffe and Thrumpton. We were also able to join in with the 100 year anniversary of the Royal British Legion. In August we had our first ever open air service in Kingston.

Pastoral Care

Some members of our Parish are unable to attend Church due to sickness or age. Revd Richard Coleman has visited all Church members who have requested it, to celebrate communion with them in their homes. Anne Farnsworth has continued to organise a rota of volunteers to visit all who are sick or unable to get out for any other reason to keep them in touch with Church life; during the lockdowns volunteers have been telephoning the vulnerable. Around half of our combined congregations are members of one of our four lay-led Bible study groups which also provide pastoral care to members of the group, and it has been a delight to see people growing in their knowledge and love of Jesus through these groups. Easter eggs were collected this year for Framework, a charity in Nottingham working with the homeless; and we continue to support the Foodbank in Clifton with food and other products that they need on a weekly basis. The Rector, along with Anne Farnsworth, is also able to hand out Foodbank vouchers to folk in the five villages who are referred to him. We held funerals for 3 church members who sadly died during the year.

Mission and Evangelism

We have taken the opportunity afforded by the lockdowns to revamp our parish magazine (circulation c.1,070 households), which has been renamed "Connection", and it continues to be an important means of promoting the Church's mission, work and activities to the local communities as well as providing articles of interest to the communities. Our community cinema was restarted in October, and although numbers are down compared to preCovid, it is still appreciated by those who come. Due to our licence we are unable to advertise the names of the films outside of the church and so we have to give clues as to which film is being shown. We are also unable to charge for entry but can and do charge for refreshments. Whilst we have maintained contact with Gotham Primary School, due to ongoing Covid concerns our Open The Book team have been unable to take any assemblies in the school. Our group of five churches, along with seven other churches in the local area, continued to financially support a Schools Worker at East Leake Academy; and her involvement at the Academy has also been curtailed this year, again because of the continuing Covid concerns; our Schools Worker is hoping to be able to do something for the young people of the parish in 2022. As we are back to holding in-person services we were able to hold a Shoebox Service and collected 124 shoeboxes, which will go to bring joy to children who wouldn't normally receive anything at Christmas as well as providing them with the opportunity to learn about Jesus for themselves.

Gotham Church Hall

Little Cherubs Toddler Group make use of the Church Hall on a Friday morning during term time. Run by Anna Marsden, Fiona Coleman and Elaine Inskeep, they continued to provide a well resourced toddler group. The Bible and song time continued to be very popular and generally all families stay right to the end of each session to join in with this. A lot of the Christian songs have been learnt and remembered by the children and parents who happily sing along. We are hoping that the Church will sponsor the purchase of the Real Easter Egg for the children for Easter next year, with any excess eggs going to Framework. One of the families played the part of Mary and Joseph and baby Jesus in our No Rehearsal Nativity Service.

The Gotham Local Management Group have taken the decision to sell the Church Hall, which suffers from disrepair and obsolescence, as discussions with other village organisations came to nothing. The proceeds of the sale will be restricted for Ecclesiastical purposes only. Little Cherubs Toddler Group will relocate to the Church once the Hall is sold and we are currently working on making storage available.

Deanery Synod

Two members of the PCC sit on Deanery Synod. This provides the PCC with an important link between the Parish and the wider structure of the church.

Ecumenical Relationships

The Anglican church is the only church in the villages, but prior to the lockdowns, once a month, St Lawrence Church Gotham was made available for a Methodist service. So far this offer has not been taken up by the Methodist circuit.

Financial Review

Following the merger of the five parishes into a single parish we are currently in the process of replacing the individual church accounts with a new single account, which involves transferring the Standing Orders over from one account to the other. This continues to be more onerous than expected and has not been helped with HSBC Bank now charging for charitable accounts. Our Treasurer is looking into our options.

Each church has a number of ways of raising funds throughout the year but despite these efforts there is still great concern especially with the ability to pay the ever increasing Parish Share, which provides the stipends and housing of the Clergy. With the closure of the churches this has drastically impacted the ability of the churches to raise funds as well as a large reduction in the giving that is normally received during a Sunday service. We are grateful to the villagers who continue to support the churches both financially and also with practical help throughout the year. St Lawrence Church Gotham continues to make good use of its building and the flexibility that the reordering in 2010 provides - the latest initiative being a community cinema which has been well supported by the community. We hope the wider community will continue to support us now that normality has returned. Steps were taken by the diocese during the lockdown to reduce the amount expected from each parish, though now that we are able to put on concerts and other fund raising events we hope to be in a better position financially going forward.

Reserves Policy

It is the policy of the PCC to look to maintain unrestricted funds which are sufficient to cover the general upkeep and running of each church and to maintain the fabric of the building. It is held to smooth out fluctuations in cash flow and to meet emergencies. The level of reserves is monitored and reviewed by the PCC on an ongoing basis.

Volunteers

We would like to thank all the volunteers who work so hard to make our Churches the lively and vibrant communities they are. In particular we want to mention our Churchwardens Anne Farnsworth, Angie Howard and Janet State and the Deputy Churchwardens Carole Edis, Sue Davies, David Smith, John Collins and Erica Turner who have worked so tirelessly on our behalf. And to also thank our treasurer, Graham Grocock, for his continuing efforts with the accounts despite the frustrations over the past year.

Approved by the Parochial Church Council on 22nd April 2022 and signed on its behalf by:

Revd Richard Coleman (Rector & Chairman of the PCC).

THE A453 CHURCHES (BARTON | GOTHAM | KINGSTON | RATCLIFFE | THRUMPTON)

FINANCE REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

Unrestricted income across all five churches for the year ended 31st December 2021 amounted to £97,215 and restricted income amounted to £13,940, giving total income of £111,155. This was significantly higher than last year’s £93,566 but was reduced by lack of collections during the first three months of the year due to the Covid lockdown and by lack of any fundraising event until after ‘freedom day’ in August. This makes comparison with previous years irrelevant so it is difficult to see if we are making progress. Within total income the total for planned giving rose by almost 4% to just over £71,000 (including Gift Aid) from 142 donors and £10,600 (including Gift Aid) came from collections at services. Fundraising activities raised £6,834 in total but in pre-Covid years Barton exceeded this amount by itself. The only grant received was £1,500 towards window repairs at Ratcliffe.

Parish share was the biggest cost and the payment of £64,577 was 86% of the allocation made by the Diocese and 66% of our total unrestricted income. Some of the churches made payment out of reserves as their income was not sufficient to cover this cost and this resulted in a net deficit for them for the year. Repair and maintenance costs are always a problem as all our churches are Grade I or II Listed Buildings and there were major repair costs of £5,892 for the clock at Gotham and £4,100 for stained glass windows at Ratcliffe. The next largest costs were insurance at an annual rate of £13,144, where action was taken to save cost by taking a larger claims excess, and electricity, where a cost comparison exercise was carried out before switching all the churches supply to SSE. Donations to charities were reduced significantly to £754 this year to conserve funds and it is hoped to make up the shortage in 2022 when a full year of church collections and fundraising events will give us a better view of our total income for the first time in three years. Total expenditure amounted to £108,983, leaving a net surplus across the five churches of £2,172.

Total unrestricted cash (bank balances and Church Of England Deposit Fund) at 31st December 2021 amounted to £68,694 and restricted cash amounted to £14,336. The market value of shares in the CCLA Investment Fund at that date was £100,309 but this is subject to rises and falls in the stock market. Both the churches possessing these shares value the dividend income, £2,581 in the year, so they are regarded as long term investments.

The Restricted Funds are the balance remaining on the Babington Memorial repair fund, a donation of £500 received in 2019 and a donation of £500 received in 2020.

All the funds in the CCLA Investment Fund are either restricted for the Babington Monument or designated for the fabric fund so the dividends paid by the CCLA Investment Fund are likewise part restricted and part designated to the fabric fund. All the dividends paid, however, are transferred into the CBF Deposit Fund so part of the money in the Deposit Fund is restricted and part is designated for the fabric fund.
