Trustee Report
Introduction
St Peter's Church in Vauxholl is a mission initiative established by the Bishop of Southwark
under a Bishop's Mission Order (BMO) on 18 March 2020.
Under the BMO, the mission initiative assumed responsibility for the pre-existing church
building and congregation at St Peter's Church, which previously were controlled by the
Ecclesiastical Parish of North Lambeth (charity number1134717).
On 10 June 2020, the Saint Peter's Vauxhall Mission Initiative, a charitable incorporated
organisation (CIO). was incorporated to provide the necessary governance structure for
the mission initiative.
This is the first annual report of the CIO. covering the reporting period from its inception on
10 June 2020 until 31 December 2020.
The CIO 15 not a parish church and 50 is not subject to the reporting framework for Church
of England parishes set out in the Church Representation Rules. However, the trustees are
mindful that the CIO performs many of the same f unctions as a parish church. and like a
parish church. its trustees are elected by and accountable to its congregants.
To Ihat end, the Iruslees have agreed to submit several reports (all conlained in this
document) lo an annual meeting of the church's congregants. They put into context the
financial statements of the CIO and relate them to the wider life of the church. They set out
a review of the past year and link the financial plans of the church to its vision for the
future.
This document also serves as the annual report of the CIO to the Charity Commission. The
truslees have taken into account the Charities Acts. other associated regulations and the
applicable Statements of Recommended Practice when drafting this document.
This annual report has been prepared by a number of authors and was reviewed and
adopted by the Board of Trustees by re501ulion passed on 24 April 2021.
This report is signed below by the Rev. Michael John. Minister-in-charge and ex-off1CIO
chair of the Board of Trustees. on behalf of the board by way of confirmation of the
passing of such resolution.

Objectives and Activities
The trustees are commilled to supporting St Peter's Vauxhall in being Jesus People, in His
Church, for His Mission. in this city. Our desire is for each person to know Christ personally
through God's Word, prayer, worship. and His Spirit. We want to see lives transformed, not
jusl individually but a5 a community, as we seek to work oul what being the family of God
truly means and how Christ's Church should live.
We are committed to the mission of Christ which is to reconcile people to himself and
whilst we can never do more than Christ to show his love lo people, we believe it is our
mission to try. Our response to the Good News is to play an active part in our city, seeking
to respond to the needs of our area.
When planning our activilies for the year, we have considered the Charily Commission's
guidance on public benefit and. in particular. the supplementary guidance on charities for
the advancement of religion.
jesus, People
The Coronavirus pandemic, like the whole of society, completely changed how St Peter's
not only functioned, but sought to work out our vision.
I n order to gather as Jesus, people, St Peter's runs two weekly services. The Il, (traditional
worship) and 'The 4, (contemporary worship). Bolh of these moved complelely online
during the first two coronavirus lockdowns.
Under the guidance of Will Fraser (Director of Music) and Abi Brown Cwho volunteered
with us until summer 2020), both services continued to grow in the early parl of the year.
They did amazingly well when we first went online.
In the summer, we were joined by a completely new staff team (comprised of ordinand
David Hill and interns Lizzie Watts and Tom Triffitt). In the autumn term, we were able to
increase the capacity of our Sunday worship and provide a professional new look to our
online services during the second lockdown.
In addition, St Peter's runs the 'Gathering'. a weekly bible study and prayer meeting on
Wednesday evenings. Like our two services, this was well-attended before lockdown but
had to move online for much of 2020.
Anolher outworking of being Jesus People is a commitment to be a praying community.
During lockdown, we have met over Zoom to offer daily morning prayers every weekday.
Whilst numbers have varied. it has become a bedrock of our church community's routine.
In His Church
Early in 2020. our sermons focused on the importance thatjesus placed on eatin9 and
drinking together in the way that he brought about his Kingdom. As part of our mission to
bejesus, church. the trustees and staff began discussing how we could create a similar
culture of sharing and hospitality and tackle loneliness within the community.

Docusign En¥ÈlopÈ ID". 67B08A3C-127746EB-966A-166F6E7D2883
Much of this work had to be put on hold when the lockdown began. However, the
pandemic also demonstrated the service, love and support among the St Peter's
community, which has been both encouraging and inspiring.
For His Mission
Seeking to share the love of Christ has been done in two particular ways.
Firstly, St Peter's runs monthly Evensong services, where we seek to share the Gospel of
Christ to both those who come to sing in the choi r and those who attend the services.
Secondly, St Peter's ran the Alpha Course online during the first lockdown. As we seek to
learn and Step out in boldness, we are encouraged that the beginning of missional work
has started even in this trying and difficult year.
The church put on several traditional and contemporary carol services at Christmas and
members of the church were encouraged to invite friends and family. They were well
attended despite the pandemic.
In this City
St Peter's has a longstanding partnership with the Robes project where we provide a
homeless shelter once a week during the winter months. Unfortunately, the pandemic
meant we were unable to host the shelter during 2020.
Instead, we partnered with the'Love your Neighbour, project run by the Church
Revitalisation Trust. The congregation provided 50 bags, which included sleeping bags.
blankets. and warm clothes, to those who had fallen through the cracks and were still
homele55 over the winter monlhs. A huge thonk you to Lizzie Watts for heading this up.
In addition. we were able to partner with Lilian Bayliss School's pop-up foodbank and
provided support to the Vauxhall Food Bank which temporarily had to move.
Conclusions
2020 was a year unlike any. Having only formally been licensed as Mini5ter-in-Charge of
St Peter's on 18, March 2020, the first year has been somewhat strangel And yet Emma
and I have been overwhelmed by the commitment of the staff and the support of the
church family to begin to try and live out the vision we believe Christ has for St Peters. In a
year where little can be built by our own hard work. we are grateful that this year we have
been forced to trust in God and allow him to build his church.
Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders lobour in vain. Psalm 127.'1

4.2 Report on the Proceedings of the Board of Trustees
Prior to being registered as a charitable incorporated organisation, responsibility for the
mission initiative wa5 delegated lo o management committee comprised of Revd Michael
john. Anna Melton. Peter Goves and Tom Cross. When the CIO was registered on Iojune
2020, the management committee was dissolved and replaced with a Board of Trustees.
with the same membership. Andrew Burrell was appointed to the Board on 24 Au9USt
2020.
The trustees met three times during the second half of 2020.
4.2.1 Structure and Policies
The trustees established a Standing Committee (comprised of the Vicar. Wardens,
Secretary and Treasurer) which will be responsible for helping the Vicar to set the strategic
direction of the church, managing the church's day-to-day finances, and for setting the
church's human resources policies. Whi15t in 2020, there were no trustees who were not
members of this committee, it will become more important once the board of trustees
grows in size following the first set of elections in 2021.
The trustees adopt￿ the Diocese of Southwark's safeguarding policy. 'A Safe Church..
and passed policies on handling complaints, promoting equality and diversity and tackling
bullying and harassment. The trustees are grateful to Luke Taylor who has agreed to be
the church's Safeguarding Officer.

The trustees are grateful to Esther Woo who has agreed to be the church's Pastoral Care
Officer. This is a new role the trustees have created to help staff and volunteers raise any
concerns or complaints they have whilst at work.
The Standing Committee adopted policies on staff discipline and data protection. It also
signed off the church's staff handbook which sets out its policies on various human
resources issues such as parental leave and pensions.
The 11
The Trustees welcome and encourage the distinctive worship traditions at St Peter's. Our
traditional morning worship, 'The Il,, continues to move forward, with the encouragement
of Will Fraser to expand the choir. The Trustees thank the Revd Canon Angus Aagaard
(Team Rector of North Lambeth Parish) for his continued support to Michael and the
church in helping the Anglo-catholic tradition al Sl Peter's to flourish. We very much look
forward to bringing back coffee & tea after the servicel
Our new contemporary afternoon worship. 'The 4,. continues to find its own style under
Michael's leadership. The sung worship has conti nued to blossom under the guidance of
David Hill and the team. The Trustees managed the complexity and instability that the
pandemic posed on the service, which was still finding its feet. Our brief return to in-
person Services in September and October brou9ht much excilemenl and signs of growth,
which we continue to pray for more of.
4.2.2 COVID-19
The trustees regulorly discussed the challenges faced to St Peter's of the constantly-
changing coronavirus regulations and what steps were necessary to ensure that the
congregation could attend church safely. in compliance with all Government and Church
of England guidance. A huge thank you to Grace Broome. our Church Coordinator, for her
leadership in this area.
4.2.3 Organ Restoration
2020 saw the completion and restoration of our T. M. Lewis Organ. This was nearly a
decade of fundraising and planning in the making. A huge thanks to the Keyed- Up team
who did everything to make this possible and to Will Fraser who worked with Goetze &
Gwynn to implement the restoration.
4.2.4 Relationship with North Lambeth Parish
St Peter's continues to work closely with North Lambeth Parish and the trustees are keen to
explore further ways of partnering with St Anselm's (the parish church) in the future.
Prior to being incorporated as a CIO, the income and expenditure for St Peter's was being
managed by North Lambeth Parish and by Holy Trinity Clapham. Bringing these processes
'in-house' has been a mammoth task but is almost complete. Our thanks to Tom Cross
and Grace Broome for their work on this.

4.2.5 Staff & Volunteers
In 2020, St Peter's made a number of staff appointments:
Grace Broome was appointed as Church Coordinator.
Ordinand Jess Lane left St Peter's to start her curacy, and was replaced by David Hill.
Abi Brown finished her long-term voluntary placement with St Peter's in summer 2020
and two new volunteers, Lizzie Watts & Tom Triffitt. joined us in the autumn.
St Peter's has funding from the Diocese to recruit a student evangelist to minister to
sludents living in the new accommodation Ihal is being built in Vauxhall and N ine Elms.
The interview panel decided not to appoint anyone in the first recruitment round and the
role is being readvertised in 2021.
4.2.6 Finance
The trustees carefully monitored the financial position of the CIO over the course of the
year. This included scrutiny of a draft budget (which was approved in early 2021). Tom
Cross provided the trustees with regular updates on the church's actual and forecast
financial position.
4.2.5 Buildings
The truslees are grateful to the Diocese of Southwark for the money Spent on St Peter's
House lo enable Michael. Emma and their family to move in. The basement flat is also
being rented out on behalf of the Diocese of Southwark until August 2022. The remaining
space in the house is used as office space and as accommodation for long-term
volunteers.
In the church building itself, renovations were made to the toilets in late 2019 and the initial
preparatory work is being done on plans to renovate the kitchen. Urgent repairs were
made to the boiler and church plumbing.
The truslees have been engaged in o lon9-running planning dispute with Lambelh Council
about the wall outside St Peter's House. It has now been agreed that the wall will be
rebuilt.
4.2.6 Prayer
The trustees continued to pray throughout the year for God's will lo be done at St Peter's

Financial Review
The church's financial position for 2020 15 Posltive.
The church has continued to generate a healthy income stream through congregational
giving and church income increased through the year. It should be noted that we have
little to compare it to given this is the first financial period. but the income from giving is
higher than budgeted.
This is particularly encouraging given the difficulties the pandemic presented. Income
from church activities was well below budget given the building could not be rented out
for use by external organisations and event income was minimal. Expenditure was also
significantly below budget given there were a number of planned expenses which did not
materialise (lower slaff ing costs bein9 the primary example).
The reported in-year position has grown the overall level of cash reserves to £87,000 al
the end of the year.
Income
The main source of church income is congregational giving (around £91.000. which is 66°
of total income). This is very encouraging and gives us confidence that the church's
finances are sustainable. The trustees want to thank everyone in the congregation who
supports the life of the church in thi5 way.
During 2020, a one-off gift of £30.000 was made by Holy Trinity Church. Clapham. This
was 22°A of our total income this year.
Expenditure
Overall expenditure for the year was significantly lower than originally budgeted.
Staff costs were much lower than expected. largely due to COVID. For example. our
church co-ordinalor was appointed only part-way through Ihe year. Given there were
large periods where the church was not in use and the building was empty, utility costs
have also been lower than budgeted.
The 2021 budget is balanced and as such, we expect the expenditure to increase as we
invest in people to further the ministry of the church, as well as make decisions as to how
we can better support charitable efforts outside St Peter's.
The advantage of the lower-lhan-expected expenditure is that il has allowed us to build
up reserves which help protect the future life of the church. as well as enable one-off
capital expenditure in the coming year.
The table below is an extrad of the accounts showing income vs expenditure for the year
ending 31 December 2020:
Please refer to the annual accounts at the end of this report for full details on items
summarised above and for Sl Peter5, balance sheet.

Plans for Future Periods
We are tentatively excited about all that is to come in 2021:
jesus, People
As we are unable to provide a children's ministry to children attending 'The 4, in a COVI D-
secure way, we decided to launch a 9..30 service aimed at families in early 2021. The
service has flourished and we intend to keep it running until at least the summer.
When COVID guidance permits it, 'The Il, will seek to build momentum by bringing back
the choir lo assist with its worship. 'The 4, will seek to continue to build its sung worship
and enable more people to serve during services.
In His Church
As the coronavirus restrictions lift, we hope to re-commence our focus on fostering
relationships as a church community. We hope to run a 'Summer Suppers, project
encouraging members of the congregation to share hospilolity. eating together in one
another s home5.
St Peter's Day will be a significant opportunity for all our services to celebrate on 2f lune.
We hope to attend 'Focus (the summer festival for churche5 in the HTB Nelwork) between
23-25, july, but staying here at St Peter's. so that we can gather with our wider church
family.
For His Mission
We intend to run the Alpha Course again in September alongside other outreach projects.
We hope to appoint a Student Evangelist to reach those students living in halls nearby.
Additionally, we will continue our Evensong services to reach those who don't yet attend
church.
In This City
We seek to undertake our first major refurbishment of the kitchen, which will allow us to
provide more suitable food and 5UPPOrt for the winter night shelter, which will start up
again in November. We are arranging to host a human trafficking awareness evening in
lune/July with a London-based charity. We hope this will begin conversations about how
we as a community can best respond in the medium-to-long term to the injustice of
human trafficking.

Risk Management
St Peter's trustees and staff seek to idenlify and miligate Ihe key risks that they encounter
in all aspects of the Church's activities. This includes key risks to the spiritual life, financial
matters, meeting statutory and legal requirements, operations and reputation.
Both the nature of St Peter's as a growing church and the coronavirus pandemic mean
Ihal Ihe steps required to mitigale these risks so that they fall within an acceptable risk
tolerance often need to be reviewed and changed.
St Peter's has in place a wide range of policies and procedures to ensure that all such risks
are effectively managed. Examples include-. the safeguarding policies for children and
vulnerable adults; the financial policies and procedures to prevent misappropriation of
funds, effective controls over expenditure and regular reportin9,- Ihe data protection policy
ensuring proper use of congregation members, details,. regularly reviewed risk
assessments for events and services, and a programme of rolling repairs in order to seek
