Vicar’s report

The year 2024 was always likely to feel like something of a "morning after" following our experimental and enriching year focused on John’s Gospel. It is with gratitude (and some relief) that I report both growth and consolidation during the past year.

APCM, 11[th] of May 2025

The leadership and worship of the church

There were several key challenges posed by the shifting roles and commitments of our leadership team.

Upon completing his curacy, our curate, Revd Jon, agreed to remain with us part-time in the role of Director of Spiritual Formation. He is also currently a part time Chaplain at Jesus College.

Gemma Anderson, our youth leader-in-training, completed her degree and secured a full-time role at another St Andrew’s (north of here), but not before ensuring the continuity of the excellent youth work she had developed.

Meanwhile, Revd Jeanine, our Pioneer Curate, shifted her focus toward community-based ministry, as required by her training. Revd Debbie Ford also reduced her availability for leading worship at St Andrew’s.

These developments created opportunities for others to step up, and we were delighted to see Amanda Cator take leadership of Brunch Church, supported by others including Kimberley Rosewood, who was also hired to run the Youth Café.

We also welcomed two new Self-Supporting Ministers (SSMs)—Revd Helene Tame and Revd Jennifer Totney—whose gifts and openness have been a great blessing. Alongside Keith Stott, a Licensed Lay Minister, this new team, informally dubbed the “Trinity of 24,” has helped to compensate for the shifting roles of Jon and Jeanine, contributing greatly to the enrichment of our community.

Throughout the year, we continued to deepen our commitment to a relatively new pattern of worship. Attendance at our main Sunday services—BCP, Café, and Sung Communion—along with the Wednesday midweek service, remained steady. Teams leading Forest Church, Brunch Church, and the PRayground were strengthened.

Following a congregational consultation, the PCC agreed to offer Prayers of Love and Faith in support of same-sex couples. Although the offer has not yet been taken up, it marks an important milestone in our inclusive witness.

Special services—Harvest, Remembrance, All Souls—and the liturgies around major holidays were highlights of the year. Under Lucy Bunce’s musical leadership, worship music continued to flourish. We were also blessed by the return of former organist Jack Butterworth, who supported our Holy Week Triduum services. Our inaugural Saturday night Easter Vigil, complete with the singing of the Exsultet , was a particular joy.

My deepest thanks go to the dozens of volunteers who serve on rotas to make all our worship possible. A typical Sunday morning involves about 15 people in various roles—reminding us that worship is truly the work of the people.

Education

Our mission is not only to nurture worship but also to foster understanding of God and how faith shapes our lives and actions. Our Home Groups continue to play a vital role in this, and I am thankful to all who lead and participate in them.

This year’s educational offerings included:

A new women’s book group, Soul Sisters, was launched by Revd Jeanine. Meeting bi-monthly in the pub, this intergenerational group explores books with themes of soul and spirituality and has quickly become a source of joy and fellowship.

2

APCM, 11[th] of May 2025

We prepared 12 school-aged children for baptism and/or First Communion—a lively and meaningful educational experience.

Much of our faith education takes place in partnership with local schools. A notable new initiative was the Worship Gang at Cherry Hinton Primary, where Revd Karin guided Year 5 pupils in planning and leading Collective Worship. Assemblies continued across all four local primary schools, and we once again welcomed schools to the church for visits and “Experience” days, supported by Victoria Goodman of the Cambridge Church Schools Trust. We also revived the pre-pandemic tradition of hosting Year 6 Graduation Ceremonies for all Cherry Hinton primary leavers.

Wider Community Outreach

Three major initiatives defined our outreach work in 2024:

  1. Transitioning the Food Hub into a Fairbite Food Club , in partnership with the Cambridge City Food Bank. This social supermarket model provides more reliable food access to members, along with support from the CAB and other services. Thanks to Lucy Bunce and Revd Jeanine for their inspired leadership of this successful transition.

Supported by various grants we also introduced a Wellness Wednesday programme, offering chair exercise, reflexology, a youth café, and a free children’s choir open to all four local schools. Wednesdays have become a vibrant day of hospitality and connection at St Andrew’s.

  1. Managing the Community Living Room at Springstead Village , formerly the Temporary Community Centre. With help from a housing association grant, we have begun community development efforts and equipped the building for safe and welcoming use. This represents a major new responsibility and a unique opportunity to support a growing neighbourhood from the ground up.

  2. Hosting our first week-long Christmas Tree Festival in December, led by Sharon Murray and a committed team of volunteers. Events included:

  3. A gala opening night for local volunteers.

  4. A festive afternoon tea and song session for older residents.

  5. Activities for care homes, nurseries, and vulnerable families.

  6. A special multi-faith evening of prayers for peace, which I was honoured to lead alongside a local imam, a Quaker, and a Baptist minister.

This festival proclaimed loudly what we whisper all year long: God is with us—Emmanuel—through every moment of life . From the new Grief Café (also a new venture) to Chirpy Cherries to our Youth Café, funeral, wedding and baptism preparation, and so much more, we seek to embody this message in all we do.

Children and Young People

Jesus placed children at the centre, reminding us to become like them to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. We strive to follow His lead.

Safeguarding is our essential starting point. Deep thanks to all who undertake the necessary training and paperwork, and especially to Kerry Calvo, our Parish Safeguarding Officer, for her tireless and meticulous work.

Welcomers often speak of the joy they feel seeing children run eagerly into church. Despite the transient nature of Cambridge, we have around 70 under-18s attending monthly—a remarkable gift and responsibility.

While many volunteers have supported PRayground, Forest Church, Brunch Church, and events like the Good Friday Eggstravaganza, our Youth Work has been affected by the absence of a dedicated leader since June. We continue to seek someone to fill this important role, along with a family ministry lead for younger children.

3

APCM, 11[th] of May 2025

With more financial resources, we could significantly expand this area of ministry. In the meantime, we offer love, acceptance, and the invitation to explore faith to all our young people, striving to be an intergenerational church where all ages learn from one another .

Influence

As a Church of England parish, we are called to influence our community for good—including new communities still under development.

This year, we led opposition to the proposed development of a science park on toxic landfill in our parish. Although planning permission was granted in September, we continue to monitor compliance with safety conditions, demonstrating our care for creation and local wellbeing.

We also joined Citizens UK, a movement of grassroots civic organising that begins by building trust in across a city. To that end, St Andrew’s hosted a ‘Building Trust’ event and several of us have been to others. Simon Cooper represents us on the steering committee of ‘Cambridge Citizens’.

The vicar continues her work, alongside Jonathan Tame and Nick Moir to bring about the vision of better later living communities co-located with Church of England primary schools and 2024 saw a great deal of progress in spreading this vision.

St Andrew’s is well represented in discussions about strategy across the diocese – new housing and pioneering strategy in particular – as well local discussions about how the church might seek to influence the development of the whole airport area. We are at the table in many Council led discussions about community development in this area.

Thank You

One of the signs of a healthy church community is that many people are involved in creating spaces for worship, for education, for children and young people, for the wider community and for political engagement and influence. But also that people are free to dip and out, to rest, to have down times when they retreat. This balance between encouraging involvement and encouraging rest and recovery is difficult to maintain. However I think when we look across our church community we can see people at every stage of activity and rest – and that seems right. Thank you to all of you who help to make this church so active – and thank you to those who help to ensure it remains a place open to silence, to listening, to prayer and to doubt. You are all so essential in the ‘Body of Christ’.

Electoral Roll Report 2025

A new roll was prepared this year which meant that everyone who was eligible and wished to be on the roll was required to fill out an application form.

Notice for the preparation of the new roll was given on 2 March and the new roll published on 13 April.

There are 104 names on the 2025 roll compared to 117 in 2024. 31 are new additions to the roll.

The complete reset identified:

My thanks to everyone who filled in their form, and to Karin who helped to contact those who had not responded.

It is possible to join the roll at any point during the year except for the period between the publication of the new roll and the APCM.

Treasurer’s report

Headlines

The 2024 accounts have been finalised, independently examined and approved by PCC. In presenting the results to the APCM I can report the following headlines:

· Total expenditure (all funds) rose by 12% compared with the previous year, from £125k to £139k, reflecting the increased activity of St Andrew’s.

· Total income (all funds) rose over the year by 33% from £120k to £162k now that investment income is added. This is testimony to a successful giving campaign, increased church membership and participation, more Church Centre lettings, the new Fairbite Food Club contract and successful grant and donation fundraising for the Community Fund (including Springstead), for youth work and for other purposes. This improves our reserves position and builds a good platform for our future plans.

· On unrestricted funds we made a surplus of nearly £11.3k (2023: £5.7k) and on combined designated/ restricted funds a surplus of £5.2k (2023: a deficit of £9.7k), reflecting successful grant income.

· The balance of unrestricted funds at the end of the year increased to £83.2k This provides cover for over seven months of total expenditure and nearly ten months of unrestricted expenditure . Gift Aid claims still pending would increase the unrestricted balance by a further £10k. The PCC’s policy is to maintain unrestricted reserves to cover at least four months of unrestricted expenditure.

Behind the headlines:

Income

· Overall individual giving (unrestricted) was up by £17.3k (27%) to reach £82.2k. The main story here is a swing away from regular giving through the bank (down £3.1k - 12%) and through card payments (down £2.3k – 35%) towards the Parish Giving Scheme (up £14.6k – 70%). The trend towards Parish Giving Scheme also gives a £2.6k positive effect on in-year GiftAid

· We also received nearly £29k in donations: £14k unrestricted and £14.5k to the Food Hub/Community Fund .

· Centre Lettings (Fundraising) were up by £2.5k (100%); Centre Lettings (Charitable Objects ie community groups ) were up by £1.0k (77%).

· Wedding and funeral fees were down by £1.3k (14%).

Expenditure

· The main increase was in Food Hub/Community Fund , a 250% rise (almost £14k) reflecting a step up in activity, the direct cost of the Co-ordinator role and proportionate recovery of indirect costs (clergy time, administrator time, cleaning and utilities)

· Other notable increases were in the Parish Ministry Share (7%) and Administrator Salary (15%), both of which were offset by charge out of an allocation of the cost to Food Hub/Community Fund

· …and in Cost of services (a 100% rise of £2.5k) and Admin costs (a 15% rise of £0.6k)

· Other cost reductions came in Music and Organists (down £3.3k - 33%) and Communications Staff , where the £2.8k (45%) decrease is explained by allocation of most of Lucy’s time to Food Club co-ordination.

5

APCM, 11[th] of May 2025

Fund balances

Apart from the improvement in unrestricted funds mentioned in the headlines the main points of note relate to the following restricted fund balances:

· Combined Community Fund and Food Hub balance went from £11.9k to £4.9k as donations received before 2024 were fully spent. The old designated Food Hub Fund has now been replaced by the Restricted Community Fund , which takes in all our community work except the Fairbite Food Club.

· Friends of St Andrew’s ended the year with a balance of £4.8k. Membership subscriptions and successful fundraising events enabled the refurbishment of church toilet facilities (£2.3k) and the purchase of a defibrillator and cabinet (£1.1k).

· We received a £5k donation in 2024 towards a new stained-glass window, which is held in a new restricted Window Fund .

· The Sunday School Fund continues to accumulate. Some of the £0.9k balance can be drawn down to fund costs of services.

· The modest Churchyard fund continues to meet the expenses related to the churchyard.

· While funds from other sources can be used to cover fabric improvements and maintenance it is the PCC’s intention to build up the restricted Fabric Fund (now at £19.4k) to cover contingencies.

Endowment funds

The value of the endowment funds rose by £13k. Over £350k of investments are currently held in funds managed by the Diocese or by CCLA. These are very restricted to the rainiest of rainy days.

Reserves Policy

It is PCC policy to maintain a balance on unrestricted funds (if possible), which equates to at least four months’ unrestricted payments (approximately £33k in 2024), to cover emergency situations that may arise from time to time. The balance of £83k held in unrestricted funds at the end of 2024 represents almost ten months of unrestricted expenditure (over seven months for expenditure from all funds).

The balances in the Churchyard and Fabric restricted funds is retained towards the costs of maintaining the church building and grounds.

It is our policy to invest our funds with the CBF Church of England Deposit and Investment Funds, and the CCLA, COIF Charities and Investment Fund.

Independent examination

The year end accounts, independently examined by Keith Presence accompany are presented to the APCM.

Our level of income means that our annual accounts are subject to an Independent Examination, rather than a full audit.

Acknowledgements

Finally I should stress that much of the mission and upkeep of St Andrew’s is made possible by people freely giving their time and talents. I would like to offer my thanks to everyone who has done so .

6

APCM, 11[th] of May 2025

In relation to the church finances I would like particularly to thank Colleen Hart, Keith Presence and Heather Squires for their considerable voluntary contributions and Sharon Murray , Lucille Fairclough and Kevin Ogilvie for their diligent work.

Deanery synod report

Since the last APCM there have been three meetings of Deanery Synod:

The meetings have a consistent pattern, providing a time to share experiences, the opportunity to hear presentations from experts from outside the Deanery, updates from the Diocese and the Deanery and a financial report.

Time to share

This is described as “sharing in small groups some of the current joys and challenges from local parishes.”

Presentations

Each Synod meeting featured a presentation. A brief summary of each follows

Open Christian Learning with Rev Mark Rodel, Diocese Development Officer for Learning

Open Christian Learning is:

It hopes to make learning more accessible, geographically and flexibility of time; to engage parishioners and the central diocesan team with one-another; to resource the majority of parishes who have a low capacity to arrange training, courses and learning alone; to create a high quality, consistent and scalable programme of learning and training for the diocese and perhaps beyond. Furthermore it hopes to create a confident people of God, to develop healthy leaders including, but not exclusively, Authorised Lay Ministers and Licensed Lay Ministers, and Clergy.

The work of Ely Cathedral with Mr. Francis Burkitt (member of Chapter and Lay Canon)

The cathedral is doing some ‘outreach’ to try and build relationships and explain what the cathedral is doing. It is often referred to as the Mother Church and Francis used this analogy today to prompt Synod members to reflect on:

Eco-Church presentation + discussion

This was led by Nigel Cooper (Diocesan Development Officer) and Sacha Watson (Net zero carbon Officer for Ely Diocese), with case studies from Jonathan Chaplin (St Paul’s, Cambridge) and Bethan Rodden (St Mark’s, Newnham).

7

APCM, 11[th] of May 2025

The session showed how the context encouraged our eco-journeys:

There was a helpful slide on quick wins….

…and some recommendations to PCCs of next steps:

Updates from Deaneries, Cambridge-wide and Diocese of Ely

Housing

There was much discussion in the synod meetings about new housing developments. Beth Cope, Bishop’s Advisor for New Housing intends to develop a strategy for new housing with participation of parishes and deaneries. There are huge possibilities as to how we develop, partner and plant to engage with those areas of new housing and the growth of our city. The leading example is the ‘airport’ parishes which cross Cambridge North and South with three parishes (including St Andrew’s) drawing together to pray for and work out bottom up how to engage with those developments, both as Church of England parishes and ecumenically. The longer-term development of the whole Marshall's site is likely to be delayed because of a delay in forming a new Local Plan to cover this and other big future developments.

Deanery Plan

Members of the Synod have worked in recent years on a deanery development plan. This has been positively received by the diocese and Bishop Dagmar. They were encouraged by the Cambridge South Deanery’s scale of ambition and want to draw on strengths and expertise diocese wideThe Rural Dean hopes to form an implementation group to bring the deanery development plan into action. There were three main streams:

as well as smaller sub streams.

8

APCM, 11[th] of May 2025

Finance

At February 2025 the Deanery accounts were showing a balance of £65k. The main financial activity is the Parish Ministry Share (PMS), plus the Deanery’s contribution (3 annual payments of £25k) to the homeless people project. The Deanery receives in the form of the PMS rebate, which is received when the Deanery as a whole fully pays in its share. The rebate is then used to subsidise parishes that are struggling to meet their share. St Andrew’s has benefited from this over the years.

Robin Greenwood, 5 May 2025

Churchwardens report

As usual there have been a large number of things going on related to the fabric of the church buildings and churchyard. We have listed some of these below:

General Maintenance & Repairs

Lighting

Cleaning & Organization

9

APCM, 11[th] of May 2025

Churchyard and parking

Many thanks to all the members of the congregation who have been involved in some way in the upkeep and organisation of our historic – and not so historic – buildings. Also thanks to all those who help ‘reset’ the seating after café church services.

Deputy warden – we are still looking for someone who could fulfil the role of deputy warden. We sometimes struggle to fill the Sunday rota for a warden and having a third person on-board would help enormously.

Michael Sanders and Stephen Burden, 7th of May, 2025

Safeguarding report

We are now making use of a ‘Safeguarding Dashboard’ created by the national church which helps us to keep track of the many obligations we have in this ever expanding area of church life. We are working hard to turn all the ‘red’ areas into amber or ideally green and having got through the first iteration of the dashboard we were surprised when a message popped up saying ‘Congratulations – you’ve completed level one, now we will move you on to Level Two’... Level Two is concerned with the various groups we run and whether we have sufficient policies in place. The PCC is taking on the creation of numerous new policies which are needed (building on templates provided by our diocese); we are aiming to approve several at our May meeting and the rest in September. Meanwhile the work of safely recruiting new volunteers and ensuring that everyone redoes their DBS and safeguarding training every three years constitutes a big part of the workload for the Safeguarding Administrator (part of Lucille’s job) and the vicar. We are supported by Kerry Calvo, our Parish Safeguarding Officer, whenever a safeguarding incident occurs. There were no safeguarding incidents or concerns in 2024 which required anything more than gathering advice from our excellent Diocesan safeguarding team.

In 2024 we made a presentation on our safeguarding work to the church on Safeguarding Sunday and considered relevant themes in our Cafe Church that week.

Music report

The musical life of St Andrew’s continues to be rich and varied. Our varied styles of services are supported by a team of wonderful musicians.

10

APCM, 11[th] of May 2025

Café Church

The music for this service is generally contemporary in style with a small worship band led by Lucy Bunce (voice, piano, harp) and Barry Hart (voice, guitar). Other musicians who have contributed this year include Simon Cooper (‘cello), Matt Hart (guitar), Mya Agbodza (guitar), Judith Cork (voice), India Bunce (voice) and Natasha Hubert (voice).

Sung Communion

The music at this service is generally more traditional and led from the organ. We are very blessed at St Andrew’s to have a wonderful team of organists, both from our local community and some of the Cambridge colleges. Huge thanks to Alex Trigg, Thomas Williamson, Joan Clarkson, Bron Taylor and Peter Harland who have played this year. Our student organists often comment on the wonderful welcome they receive at St Andrew’s from both clergy and congregation: they never seem to mind the journey out to Cherry Hinton!

Songs of Praise Services

The fifth Sunday takes the form of a Songs of Praise service which are an opportunity to include more songs and hymns within the liturgy. These services often have a mix of styles of music, musicians, and singers. We were delighted to welcome Rev Prof Maggi Dawn to our Creationtide Songs of Praise where she gave the sermon on Caedmon's Song (the first English hymn), joined the band and we learnt some of Maggi’s songs.

Meditation Services

Once a month the Meditation@4pm service includes a Sung Evening Prayer, led by Lucy from harp or piano.

Christmas & Easter Services

Christmas and Easter were musical feasts at St Andrew’s. Christmas was a highlight with a record number in the Celebration Choir including members from our Food Club Community and the Lucy Cavendish Singers.

In Holy Week we had three Compline services that were each enhanced by a solo instrumentalist (guitar, harp and piano).

Celebration Choir

Following on from last year the ‘Celebration Choir’ has sung for special services including Harvest, Christmas and Mothering Sunday. This model (‘if you can come to the one rehearsal you can sing on the Sunday’) is working well and facilitates a core of singers who sing regularly and others when they can.

Celebration Singers

Since beginning in the Summer Term of 2024 our children’s community choir, Celebration Singers, has gone from strength to strength. They have given 2 concerts: The Singing Game in the summer and a Christmas Recital as part of the Christmas Tree Festival. The choir now number 14 and are a delightful, enthusiastic and expressive group of singers who communicate the joy of singing. Our concerts have also given the young musicians opportunities to play instrumental solos.

PA

We are very grateful to Peter Hoyes and the small team of people who serve so well at the sounddesk to make sure we can hear the music, as well as spoken voices on a Sunday.

11

APCM, 11[th] of May 2025

Out and About

Lucy has also been further afield in the diocese leading worship at the LLM Day, the Diocesan Growth Conference and regularly playing at Evening Prayer at St Mary’s and St Michael’s.

Lucy Bunce, 6th of May 2025

Friends of St. Andrew’s report

The Friends committee has seen some changes over the past year – We said a heartfelt thank you and goodbye to four long-serving committee members, and welcomed four new committee members, who have been busy learning the ropes! The Friends of St Andrews continues to hold events which provide enjoyment for the community, whilst also raising funds for the church building, community centre and churchyard.

Several events went ahead in 2024/25

The Friends events of 2024 raised over £2,000 . Funds raised have been used for:

Future events planned for 2025:

Look out for a new-look website, logo and FB page

The aim is that funds raised this year will contribute to the cost of restoring the church tower.
