## **The Parochial Church Council of The Parish of Drayton Bassett, Fazeley & Mile Oak – Charity Registration no. 1191092** 

## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the year ended 31[st] December 2023** 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The Parochial Church Council of The Parish of Drayton Bassett, Fazeley & Mile Oak (the PCC) has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent, Rev Jonathan Iddon, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical.  The PCC is also spiritually responsible for the maintenance of the church 

The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of our parish community at all three Churches St Peter’s Drayton Bassett, St Paul’s Fazeley and St Barnabas Mile Oak. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish and makes suggestions on how our services can involve the many groups that live within our parish. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer, scripture, music and sacrament. Also, through non sacramental activities of hospitality and fellowship we aim to reach non churched members of the community. 

## **Public Benefit** 

The trustees of the Charity are aware of the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit in The Advancement of Religion for the Public Benefit and have had regard to it in their administration of the Charity. The trustees believe that, by promoting the work of the Church of England in the Ecclesiastical Parish of Bloxwich, it helps to promote the whole mission of the Church (pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical) more effectively, within the Ecclesiastical Parish, and that in doing so it provides a benefit to the public by: 

• Providing facilities for public worship, pastoral care and spiritual, moral and intellectual development, both for its members and for anyone who wishes to benefit from what the Church offers; and 

• Promoting Christian values and service by members of the Church in and to their communities, to the benefit of individuals and society as a whole.

## **Achievements and Performance** 

## **Vicar’s Report** 

If I had to sum up 2023 in one word for The Parish of Drayton Bassett, Fazeley & Mile Oak, the word I would choose is ‘Togetherness’. 

It has been a year with much to thank God for. At risk of being a ‘COVID bore’ and going on about the pandemic (which is a time we want to put behind us and not keep dwelling on), it is right to note that COVID cast a long shadow on our churches (and indeed on churches the world over). 2023 felt very much like the first ‘normal’ year where we returned to a deeper sense of togetherness with revitalised energy to do things we did pre-pandemic. And so, 2023 saw not one but two Alpha Courses and a Youth Alpha too. Whilst drawing in some on the fringes to deeper faith a key fruit of this was seeing a deepening of fellowship. It was also a blessing to celebrate many of the Alpha participants (of all ages) being confirmed at the Deanery Confirmation service at St Paul’s in the autumn. 

This ‘Going Deeper Together’ has not only been through Alpha but also through more socials: quiz nights, plant sales in Drayton Bassett, 60[th] birthday celebrations in Mile Oak and through a raising of the profile of our Fellowship Groups to name but a few. 

An Ownership Morning at St Paul’s in the blistering heat(!) is an example of people coming together to attend to some of the practicalities of looking after our church buildings and churchyards, in addition to that which is done on a weekly basis by church members willingly giving their time to serving the church in practical ways. 

The end of the year saw a willingness to come together, particularly between St Paul’s and St Peter’s congregations to worship together to save on heating costs. Although driven by finances, a blessing that arose was the emerging warmth of fellowship between the congregations and that deeper sense we are part of a bigger family as a Parish and not just as congregations. 

The following reports are not extensive but give you an idea of some of the things that have happened in the life of our Parish over 2023, including the fruitful children and young peoples’ ministry which has gone from strength to strength thanks to Karen Hewish’s ministry and the commitment of the team who serve the younger generations. 

Thank you to all for being part of our Parish family and engaging in our Parish Vision of Going Deeper – with God, with each other and with the local community. 2023 certainly feels like a year when we started to see some of this vision become reality. May that continue into 2024, all to the glory of God. 

## _**Jonathan Iddon**_ 

## **St Barnabas Church** 

One of the highlights of our life at St Barnabas this year was our 60[th] birthday celebration, including an afternoon tea and a special Sunday service. It was good to see congregations and friends past and present enjoying a very special day. Another great occasion was our first total immersion baptism – a very exciting morning, 

Our mission, at present is to include our community of Mile Oak in our church life. 

We had several social events to encourage people to enjoy fellowship, including: bingo sessions, a quiz and a jumble sale, all successfully received. 

Our First Friday coffee mornings continue with lots of chat and delicious cakes!

## **Children and Youth Ministry** 

## **EVENTS** 

**January** – Believe Night for youth across Tamworth held at Elim.  This is part of a wider Tamworth Churches venture to gather youth together to share fun, faith & fellowship. 

**February** – Pancake drop-in event for families at St Barnabas.  A first-time event to reach families in the community and build further links with Messy Church and Peely tots families. 

**April –** Easter family event at St Paul’s.  Easter trail and craft session to explore the Easter Story with hot cross buns and refreshments.  Well attended & enjoyed by the families that came along (despite the weather!). Easter visit to ‘Little Acorns’ nursery to share the easter story and judge their Easter bonnet parade (not an easy task!!) 

**May** – Drayton plant sale and children’s craft activity.  Good to provide an activity for the children of those who came along to the plant sale.  Built connections to families in the village and extended the link with the school too. 

**August** – 2 x Picnic gatherings for families across the Peel Parishes and their friends.  We met on 2 different days in the castle grounds for picnics and games.  Well attended and a good fellowship/social event to gather families during the school holidays. 

**September** – Ownership morning. During this time the Kingdom Kids & Messy Church teams sorted out all the children’s toys and resources to create a safe space for pre-schoolers to meet in the Litchfield room, with appropriate aged toys.  We also sorted out resources for the back of Church for older children and craft/activity resources to equip the teams of KK & Messy Church.  Extra ‘good condition’ toys have been donated to charities. 

## **Schools Work** 

This year has seen a real growth in connections with all the 3 schools in the parish.  I have been into Manor Primary school in DB regularly leading lessons with all the different age groups and have organised a number of visits to the St Peter’s Church, including a first time visit for the nursery and reception children in July.  I also led a whole school harvest assembly & y6 leavers assembly too. 

Longwood school have continued to visit St Barnabas for their ‘Mini Messy Church’ lessons, where they hear a bible story and then explore it through crafts and activities before finishing with worship time and songs. 

I also led a whole school harvest assembly and told the children about our can appeal, this resulted in a large collection of donated cans from the children. I also led a Y6 leavers assembly and we looked back at a promise wreath they made when they first started in Year 6 when visiting the church for a messy church event.  We were able to look at how they had grown and whether they had achieved their goals. It was lovely to be able to see how far they had come in their journey. 

Milfield school have made 2 whole school visits to St Paul’s this year with a ‘Mini Messy Church’ Easter event and also a Harvest visit too.  As part of the whole school Harvest visit every child brought in tins for the Harvest appeal.  I shared a bible story with them and talked about what it means to use our skills and gifts to help others to bring glory to God. Milfield will be contributing the to the Christmas Tree window appeal this year too. 

## **Kingdom Kids** 

Kingdom Kids continues to grow in strength and number.  We are blessed by having an amazing team of leaders and helpers who help our children grow in faith.  The team now have access to an online planning platform called ‘Energize’ to help with ideas for planning sessions. 

As the number of leaders has grown it has enabled us to create extra ‘age related’ sessions on 4[th] Sundays.  Those in Y6 upwards meet in the tower room and there is a Kingdom Creche facility for Pre-schoolers in the Litchfield room.  The extra helpers also allows for a the learning and activities to be split into KS1 & KS2 groups in the Church hall. 

Kingdom Kids are currently following the same sermon series as in the main service to enable those faith discussion to continue at home beyond a Sunday morning.

## **Messy Church** 

Messy Church at St Barnabas continues to be a success with a lovely, regular congregation who have enjoyed becoming part of a ‘Messy Church family’.  It would be good to look now a how to grow that and develop that gathering beyond every 4[th] Monday. Messy Church has provided a great link with the school families and Peely Tots families too. 

## **Youth Alpha and Youth group** 

This year saw us hold our first ‘Youth Alpha’ and it was incredibly successful.  Meeting alongside the main Alpha group meant that it did not require extra resource in terms of catering and we could study the videos and have discussions upstairs in the tower room (which we deep cleaned and reorganised to make into a comfortable meeting space). 

Seven young people took part and really enjoyed exploring what it means to become a Christian and follow Jesus.  All of the young people either became Christians or renewed their faith as a result of Alpha and several of the young people went on to be confirmed. The young people wished to continue meeting so we created a Sunday night youth group and Thomas Whitehead came on board as a leader alongside myself. 

## _**Karen Hewish**_ 

Since Karen moved on to pastures new in October, for the remaining months of 2023 we were able to sustain much of this work and develop some areas further. 

In October we opened St Peter’s for a Light Night, and whilst scaled back in décor and input from previous years, many children and families still visited the church building for a cuppa and a craft activity. 

After a break, in November we were able to restart the Sunday night youth group now as a weekly meeting with 3 new leaders alongside myself. 

Alex Keen has provided some temporary oversight to the Mile Oak Messy Church which enabled this to continue to the year end. 

I have being providing some oversight to the Kingdom Kids team. This enthusiastic and committed team have since been able to resource an extra Kingdom Kids session per month on Sunday mornings which means All Age Worship has moved to monthly rather than twice a month.

## **Discipleship Team** 

The Discipleship Team was newly formed in 2023. It comprises of: the Ministry Team (2 Licensed Clergy and 3 Licensed Readers), our Retired Ministers (2 Clergy and 3 Readers) with Permission to Officiate, two Occasional Service Leaders/Preachers and also included our Children & Youth Minister until this role was vacated. The team meets monthly with a remit to discern and develop our Sunday worship services, primarily focussing on the teaching and preaching but also in providing pastoral support to the congregations. 

Special mention is to be made of Rev Rob Davies who turned ‘three score and ten’ in August and thus retired from licensed ministry. It was an opportunity to give thanks to God for Rob’s faithful ministry over the years as both a Lay Reader and Associate Minister in the Peel Parishes. Rob had a well deserved ministry break for three months from September and we are delighted he remains very much part of this team in a supporting role with Permission To Officiate. 

During 2023 we covered a varied diet of Scripture through bespoke sermon series as follows: 

- **Ephesians:** _Glorious Good News_ – a 10 part expository series. 

- **Gospels & Revelation:** _What Kind Of King?_ – a 5 part thematic series around Holy Week and also to coincide with the upcoming coronation of Charles III. 

- **Exodus 19-40:** _People of the Presence_ – a 9 part expository series exploring the second half of Exodus. 

- **Psalms** : _Songs of the Spirit_ – a 4 part summer series where preachers chose a psalm to speak on. 

- **Luke’s Gospel:** _Gathered to Go –_ a 7 part thematic series looking at the calling and sending out of the disciples ending on Harvest Sunday. 

- **Old Testament Characters:** _Faith & Failure_ – a 5 part thematic series exploring the faith and failings of biblical characters. 

- **Luke 1-2:** _Advent_ **–** During the build up to Christmas, preachers chose their own passages to speak on from the nativity in Luke. 

## _**Jonathan Iddon**_ 

## **Fellowship Groups (formerly Small Groups)** 

There are eight Fellowship Groups which meet across the Peel Parishes.  Most of these have been meeting for many years. Two of the Groups were created following the Alpha Course which took place in the Spring of 2023.  This was enabled by identifying two new Group Leaders who had participated in the Alpha Course. 

Some of the Groups take the format of a Bible Study/Prayer meeting whilst others concentrate on fellowship.  However, all engage in some form of study and/or prayer. It is recognised that Fellowship Groups are integral to the life and ministry of the church and a vital link in communicating prayer needs from those who have requested this. It is envisioned that the provision of Groups will be expanded as more leaders are identified. 

Since June last year quarterly meetings have been held with the Group Leaders. The aim of the meetings is to strengthen and support the Groups and to identify ways of making the Groups more visible. During last summer some of the Group Leaders were interviewed during the Sunday morning services at St Paul’s to raise the profile of their Groups.  Work is being undertaken to provide material for the notice boards to further publicise the Groups for anyone interested in joining.  Some Groups are at capacity and there is a need to identify potential leaders.

## **Peel Parishes Bible Study Group** 

We meet on alternative Tuesday evenings in The gallery room at St Peter’s, Drayton Bassett. We meet at 19.00 to 20.00 precisely. We have a cup of coffee or tea to welcome us so we can finish right on time for home. We study topical Bible subjects with no large book studies that go on forever. Here are some examples of the topics we have covered in the past: 

- Four studies on the Life and Times of Abraham. 

- Five studies in The Covenants of Scripture. 

- Three studies on the first five verses of Hebrews Chapter 1. 

- What is Justification? 

- Four studies on The Place called Calvary. 

We have just completed four studies in The Book of Ruth, and we will begin a series on The Book of Esther in January 2024. When for some reason a member misses a study they are provided with the notes to keep them in line with the study. We welcome anyone interested in studying The Bible to Join us.

## **Kintsugi Hope Wellbeing Course 2023** 

We are so blessed to have been involved in two Kintsugi Hope Wellbeing courses this year. 

The first was an online course which we co-led with a charity called BEAM who predominantly support birth mothers, whose children have been adopted, placed in foster care or living elsewhere. The 12-week course was attended by mothers from all over the country. They had been inundated with applications following a BBC mental health documentary featuring the charity and we were in a position in the summer to support a course. 

The second course was held between September and December at Canwell Church. There was a good uptake with people from all ages and backgrounds, some with faith and others seeking. As with previous courses the group bonded well and shared the journey of learning more about themselves and others’ wellbeing. 

It is a privilege to be able to share this course which God has so faithfully overseen and blessed those who attend. 

## _**Trisha Castanheira**_ 

## **Peely Tots** 

Peely Tots continues to be a warm and welcoming space for parents, grandparents  and carers to bring their little ones. 

We said goodbye to a number of our older children in July and therefore had a very quiet start to the new term in September. 

Peely Tots will have been running for 20 years in February and we plan to mark the occasion with a drop-in for members past and present.

## **Financial Review** 

## **PCC of Drayton Bassett, Fazeley & Mile Oak** 

Net Total Assets: £67,349  [£72,426 2022] Deficit: (£5,078) – Unrestricted Excess £12,018 Restricted deficit (£17,390) [2022 Deficit £21,988] 

The net assets have reduced from £72,426 2022 to £67,349 and whilst overall there is a deficit of (£5,078) the unrestricted figures show an excess of £12,018 which is good to see.  The restricted expenditure is for the Childrens youth worker.  Canwell did stop contributing so the Parish have paid the full amount in 2023.  However, the childrens worker did resign in November 2023 so this should be an ease on the finances. 

Drayton Bassett, Fazeley and Mile Oak have not only cleared LDBF Assigned fees of £2,400 they have also cleared the Common fund arrears from 2022.  So this has been a good year. 

Overall income has increased from £119,590 2022 to £129,165 2023.  The most notable differences being 0101 Gift aid collections, 0201 Other planned giving,0303 contactless giving, 0901 other funds generated and 1230 Church hall lettings. 

Expenditure has reduced from £141,579 2022 to £134,243.  The most notable differences being the 1910 Common fund £43,164 2022 and £50,841 2023, the full request was paid, 2050 Salary of parish administrator and 2051 salary of youth minister. 

Thanks go Lisa and Deana for their hard work in 2023 

## **Reserves Policy** 

It is PCC policy to try to maintain a balance on free reserves (net current assets) which equates to at least three months unrestricted payments.  Three months expenditure is equivalent to £27,466 [£35,394 2022]. It is held to smooth out fluctuations in cash flow and to meet emergencies. The balance of the free reserves at the year-end was £29,461 which is marginally higher than this target. 

## **Investment Policy** 

The charity is granted power to invest in suitable investments under the PCC Powers Measure 1956 and the Trustees Act 2000.  As a charity, the Trustees have a duty of care to take such advice as is appropriate before investments are undertaken.  This advice is sought from the Central Board of Finance (CCLA) in London. 

The charity’s investment policies are based on two key principles: - 

- Ethical Investment – this includes ensuring that investments are held in companies which have high standards of corporate governance and act in a responsible way towards stakeholders. 

- Long-term responsibilities – the trustees are aware of their long-term responsibilities in respect of the Restricted and Unrestricted reserves and as a result follow a prudent approach to investment decisions. 

Investment policy for long-term funds is aimed primarily at generating a sustainable income, with due regard to the need for the preservation of capital value, and the possible need to realise investments to meet operational needs. The charity does not have a policy of generating income at excessive or high risk – known as “purchasing income”, where high returns are guaranteed at the expense of capital. 

In summary, the charity has an overall policy to maximise income while preserving the real value of its funds.  Due to the nature of the charity, an ethical investment policy is taken into consideration when investments are made: 

The charity follows the Ethical Investment Advisory policy as recommended by the Lichfield Diocese which includes the following: 

- “We aim to invest in companies that: 

   - will develop their business in the interests of shareholders; 

   - demonstrate responsible employment practices; 

   - are conscientious concerning issues of corporate governance, the environment    and human rights; 

   - are sensitive to the community in which they operate.” 

Planned giving, collections and donations are the main sources of fund raising along with tax recoverable. 

## **Safeguarding** 

The PCC believe they have fulfilled their duty under section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016 (duty to have due regard to House of Bishops’ guidance on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults). 

_Page 8_ 



## **Reporting Serious Incidents** 

A Serious Incident is an adverse event, whether actual or alleged, which results in or risks significant harm to the charity’s beneficiaries, employees, office holders, volunteers or to others who come into contact with the charity through its work, loss of the charity’s money or assets, damage to the charity’s property or harm to the charity’s work or reputation. 

The trustees are not aware of any Serious Incidents in the last year 

## **Fundraising** 

The PCC takes it fundraising responsibilities seriously and is very grateful to all donors – whether regular or occasional – for their support of the church and church events.  PCC supporters are never taken for granted.  The PCC take full responsibility for fundraising and do not use commercial organisations or professional fundraisers.  All money raised is either by donations, fundraising events, special appeals or legacies for which the PCC are most grateful. 

## **Volunteers** 

The members of the PCC would like to thank all of the 72 volunteers who work so hard to make our Church a lively and vibrant community. 

## **Risk Management** 

The Church Wardens carry out regular Health and Safety Reviews and regularly inspect premises for potential hazards. We have safeguarding policies in place for child protection and for work with vulnerable adults, including rigorous DBS checking of staff and volunteers. Our insurances are reviewed annually to ensure adequate cover. An informal review of any new risks which may impact the work of the Church in the Parish is ongoing. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The PCC is a Body Corporate established by the Church of England and is a Charity registered with the Charity Commission.  The PCC is governed by the Parochial Church Council Powers Measure (1956) as amended that came into effect on 2[nd] January 1957, and the Church Representation Rules (contained in Schedule 3 to the Synodical Government Measure 1969 as amended). 

The method of appointment of the PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. The Council comprises the Incumbent, the Churchwardens, a representative of the Readers, those elected to the Deanery Synod, and other members who are elected at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting, by those on the Electoral Roll.  The PCC members receive training from courses run by the Diocese.  Members of the congregation are always urged to join the Electoral Roll, and to stand for election to the PCC. 

The PCC members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance in the parish, and for all financial matters.  The PCC met 7 times during the year. 

## **Related Parties** 

No Trustee or their family are employed or offered contracts to carry out work for the PCC. 

## **Donations from Related Parties** 

Donations from 12 related parties [PCC members] during the year totalled £44,764 [£16,555 2022]. One trustee donated 45% this was a one-off generous donation.  All these donations were received without condition. 

## **Remuneration paid to Trustees** 

None of the trustees have been paid any remuneration or received any other benefits from employment with the PCC. 

## **Expenses paid to Trustees** 

Two trustees were reimbursed £892 [£573 2022] for travel and subsistence during the year.

## **Independent Examiner’s report to the trustees/members of The PCC of The Parish of Drayton Bassett, Fazeley & Mile Oak** - **1191092** 

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31[st] December 2023 which are set out on the following pages. 

## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and Independent Examiner** 

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independen t examination is needed. 

## It is my responsibility 

- to examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission 

- (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a “true and fair” view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **Independent Examiner's Statement** 

In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act or 

- the accounts do not accord with the with the accounting records 

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

## **The Parish of Drayton Bassett, Fazeley & Mile Oak Notes to the Financial Statements** 

For the year ended 31[st] December 2023 

## **Accounting Policies** 

The Financial statements of the PCC have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 using the Receipts and Payments basis. 

There may be minor discrepancies in the totals as the pence are not being shown. 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to these accounts. The financial statements include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law.  They do not include the accounts of church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body nor those that are informal gatherings of Church members. 

## **Cashflow Statement** 

The Charity has taken advantage of the exemption in FRS102 from the requirement to produce a cashflow statement on the grounds that the income does not exceed £500,000. 

## **Going Concern** 

There are no material uncertainties relate to events or conditions that cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **Accounting Estimates and Prior Year Errors** 

No changes to accounting estimates have occurred in the reporting period. No material prior year errors have been identified in the reporting period 

## **Description of Funds** 

**Unrestricted funds** are income funds of the PCC that are available for spending on the general purposes of the PCC, including amounts designated by the PCC for fixed assets for its own use or for spending on a future project and which are therefore not included in its "free reserves" as disclosed in the trustees' annual report. 

An explanation of purpose of each Designated fund are as follows

- Audio – Funds set aside for Audio.  At nil and closed

_Page 13_ 



**Restricted funds** comprise of two elements :- 

- a) income from trusts or endowments which may be expended only on those restricted objects provided in the terms of the trust or bequest 

- b) donations or grants received for a specific object or invited by the PCC for a specific object. The funds may only     be expended on the specific object for which they were given. Any balance remaining unspent at the end of each year must be carried forward as a balance on that fund. The PCC does not usually invest separately for each fund. Where there is no separate investment, interest is apportioned to individual funds on an average balance basis. 

An explanation of purpose of each Restricted fund are as follows: 

- Clothed – Specific donations for Clothed in Kindess 

- SSPDCC – PCC to confirm the restrictions 

- StPBells – St Peters Bells – Donations for the upkeep of St Peters Bells 

- Youth Worker – Grants and donations specifically for the Youth worker 

**Endowment funds** are restricted funds that must be retained as trust capital either permanently or subject to a discretionary power to spend capital as income, and where the use of any income or other benefit derived from the capital may be restricted or unrestricted. Full details of all their restrictions are shown in the notes to the accounts. 

An explanation of purpose of each Endowment fund are as follows: 

The Parish of Drayton Bassett, Fazeley & Mile Oak do not hold any Endowment funds. 

Having recently taken over the finances of The Parish of Drayton Bassett, Fazeley & Mile Oak I have reviewed all of the funds currently listed.  I have advised that the majority of the designated funds are closed to simplify the accounts.  I would ask the PCC to consider this in 2023 as this will help the PCC to understand the position of the Parish throughout the year making it easier to plan. 

## **Incoming Resources** 

Planned giving, collections and donations are recognised when received or when the PCC becomes entitled to the resource and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Tax refunds are recognised when the incoming resource to which they relate is received. Grants and Legacies are accounted for when the PCC is legally entitled to the amounts due and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Dividends are accounted for when receivable, interest is accrued.  All other income is recognised when it is receivable. All incoming resources are accounted for gross. 

## **Resources Expended** 

Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding or constructive obligation on the PCC. The diocesan parish share is accounted for when due.   Amounts received specifically for mission are dealt with as restricted funds. All other expenditure is generally recognised when it is incurred and is accounted for gross. 

## **Governance and Support Costs** 

Support costs should be allocated between governance costs and other support.  Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the PCC and its compliance with regulation and good practice. 

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources eg by allocating staff costs by time spent and other costs by their usage. 

## **Fixed Assets** 

Consecrated and benefice property is not included in the accounts by s.10(2)(a)&(C) of the Charities Act 2011. 

Moveable church furnishings held by the Vicar and Churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal are inalienable property, listed in the Church’s inventory, which can be inspected (at any reasonable time). For anything acquired prior to 2000 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the financial statements. 

No depreciation is provided on buildings as the currently estimated residual value of the properties is not less than their carrying value and the remaining useful life of these assets exceeds 50 years, so that any depreciation charges would be immaterial. Other tangible fixed assets are valued at cost. The depreciation rates and methods used are 50% per annum. 

_Page 14_ 



## **Investments** 

Investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued initially at cost and subsequently at market value at the year end.  Investments held for re-sale are treated as current asset investments. 

## **Debtors** 

Debtors are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount.  Subsequently they are measured as cash expected to be received 

## **Creditors and Accruals** 

Creditors are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts.  Accruals are measured on best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date.
