TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

Status

The Parochial Church Council (PCC) is a democratically elected group of church members responsible for all church matters. Our purposes are to promote within the parish the whole mission of the church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The PCC was registered with the Charity Commission on 9 September 2020

Structure, governance and management

The PCC comprises a Standing Committee and a Finance Team.

We have filed our annual financial statements with this report for which we sought professional accountancy services to ensure we had full regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit

We are a charity governed through the Parochial Church Council Powers Measure (1956) as amended and Church Representation rules 2020. Trustees are nominated from the members of the electoral role. Each member of the electoral role is entitled to a vote to elect those nominated according to the number of vacancies.

Those nominated will generally remain in post for 3 years before standing down.

Objectives and activities

The PCC is responsible for all church matters and in promoting in the parish the whole mission of the church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The PCC meet at regular intervals throughout the year. There are approximately 100 parishioners on the electoral roll. In establishing the objectives, the Trustees have had due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit.

Connected funds

The accounts include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the Parochial Church Council is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body, or those of informal gatherings of church members

St Johns' Development Fund Ltd, a Company Limited by Guarantee formed to manage the funds and related expenditure of the original redevelopment project (now dormant) see note 9

Financial review

The church has a net surplus for the year of £88684 (2021: £12,125) before profit/ (loss) on investments. Of this £0 (2021: £131) relates to restricted funds from the endowment and £371 from the SDF and Youth Worker grants (2021: H P Brewer £4954). £62311 arises from various grants and fundraising designated for specific projects (2021: Love Christmas £1533)

Coronavirus Impact

We have been encouraged that we have maintained a consistent level of income through the Coronavirus lockdown. Church members have continued to give by standing order and new standing orders have been set up. Many of those unable to give by standing order have continued to send in offerings by cheque and cash. Now our corporate worship has resumed, we anticipate offerings to return to pre-lockdown levels.

Reserves policy

During this period reserves have been used to support the day to day running costs of the Church. There was a surplus of £56785 (2021: £30,783) on unrestricted funds at the year-end. The balance on the Business and Community designated fund stands at £72,014 (2021:£9,703) being the balance at 1 January 2022 plus additional £3925 surplus on the Love Christmas project plus £58386 of other grants received for designated purposes. £4954 is held for the H P Brewer fund and £371 of restricted grant income is held for SBF and Youth Worker projects.

The Endowment in respect of the Churchyard amounting to £2,242 (2021: £2,242) is invested in the CBF Church Investment Fund (no valuation of this investment has been received for a number of years and previous retained dividends have not all been recorded), in addition to this £150 (2021 - £150) of accumulated interest is held within the PCC current account.

Where unrestricted reserves arise, it is PCC policy to retain these within the high street bank accounts to ensure that access is available when expenses arise. Grants to be used for the costs of salaried staff and received in advance are held as restricted funds in the St Johns Development Fund bank account matched with the deferred income creditor

Achievements and Performance

This has been a year of significant change within the church as we have brought together a team to facilitate the development of Blackpool St Johns as a Resourcing Church.

We continue to pursue activities that will help our community discover Life in all its Fulness (John 10:10). Each activity must result in growth in the following areas:

A healthy church grows – to grow a strong, multi-generational church that is capable of having a transformative impact on Blackpool and the Fylde Coast

A healthy church reproduces – to equip and release leaders with a focus on planting faithful churches to support local areas of deprivation on the Fylde Coast

A healthy church heals – to bring healing in its fullest and widest sense to the centre of Blackpool through social transformation, prayer ministry and a healthy loving community.

At 31 December 2022 we employed a staff team of 6, 3 part time and 3 full time team members. The team are led by our Associate Vicar and Ordinand. This year we have engaged with our local community through the following activites:

We provided Alpha courses during the year meeting 142 people over the 2 courses.

We have continued to provide services to our local children and families. We provide groups for children on Sunday mornings with fun activities and teaching from the Bible. We also provide a mid week toddlers group which has allowed local Mums and tots to get together for fun and play and allow the opportunity to build great friendships and support one another.

We have been delighted to bring together youth from local churches for mid week meetings and several larger events during the year. The highlight of which was a Silent Disco, attended by 55 young people.

We have funded the training of 3 leaders to enable the delivery of Life Skills courses. These courses provide essential education around budgeting, cooking, health and well being. We were able to lead 23 local residents through the course in the last half of the year. We plan to partner with other organisations in Blackpool to extend the reach of the course beyond those we contact through church activities.

We brought the Love Christmas project to Blackpool filling and distributing 1610 bags of Christmas hope to distribute to households in our local community.

We have partnered with Acts 435 as a way of providing for the immediate practical needs shared by our parishioners. Acts 435 is a giving website that enables donors to give directly to those in need through a network of churches and local charities.

At the end of this financial year we had 124 adult members regularly attending Sunday services and committed to the life of the church.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

1 Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared under the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 in accordance with applicable accounting standards and the current Statement of Recommended Practice Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP 2019) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investment assets, which are shown at market value. They include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. The Trustees have considered the impact of Covid 19 and are sataisfied any impact can be managed and sufficient funds are available to enable the charity to meet all liabilities for a period of 12 months from the date of signing the accounts.

The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102.

Funds

Unrestricted general purpose fund

These represent the funds of the PCC that are not subject to any restrictions regarding their use and are available for the application of the general purposes of the PCC.

Designated funds

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside for particular purposes. Details of funds held are provided in note 11.

Restricted funds

These are funds subject to restrictions imposed by the donor or by the specific terms of appeal under which the funds are raised. Details of the funds held and restrictions are provided in note 11.

Endowment fund

Endowment funds represent capital retained permanently, income derived is used for the purpose of the endowment

Incoming resources

Voluntary income

Collections and sundry donations are recognised when received by or on behalf of the PCC. Legacies are included in the financial statements as soon as they are legally enforceable and capable of financial measurement.

Amounts received under covenant or gift aid are recognised when received. At the same time any gift aid tax due in respect of these amounts is accounted for on a receivable basis.

Income from charitable activities

Parochial fees due to the Parochial Church Council for weddings, funerals etc are accounted for on an event-by-event basis.

Other income

Rental income from the letting of church premises and car parks is accounted for when the rental is due. All other income is accounted for when received by or on behalf of the PCC.

Page 8

BLACKPOOL PARISH CHURCH ST JOHN THE EVANGELIST

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

Uncharged use of premises

There are a number of groups and organisations who have use of the premises and are not at present charged for that use. This use, had it been charged would have amounted to approximately £0 (2021: £858) based on an average cost of £0 (2021:£35) per session including staff set up and cleaning time.

Investment income

Dividends and interest are accounted for when receivable and allocated to the appropriate fund.

Gains and losses on investments

Realised gains and losses are recognised when investments are sold. These are calculated as the difference between the sale proceeds and their market value at the start of the year and are credited or charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the year of gain or loss.

Unrealised gains and losses represent the movement in market values during the year.

Resources expended

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis.

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs directly related to the work of the church.

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements.

Where grants are received towards specific expenditure these are shown separately as income received on an accruals basis

BLACKPOOL PARISH CHURCH ST JOHN THE EVANGELIST

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

Fixed assets

Consecrated land and buildings and moveable church furnishings

Consecrated and beneficed property is excluded from the accounts by s10(2)(a0 and (c) of the Charities Act 2011. No value is placed on moveable church furnishings held by the vicar and church wardens on special trust for the Parochial Church Council and which require a faculty for disposal since the Parochial Church Council considers this to be inalienable property. All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or beneficial buildings and moveable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement, and fixed assets of small value costing less than £1,000, are written off rather than capitalised.

All fixed assets held are used in the direct furtherance of the PCC's objects.

Investments

Investments are valued at Market Value at 31 December, with any change in market value being adjusted through the statement of financial activities. The market value for the Endowment fund has not been ascertained as at the year end, therefore the historic Market Value position is retained.

Current assets

Amounts owing to the PCC at 31 December in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors, less provision for amounts that may prove uncollectable.

Short term deposits include cash held either with the CBF Church of England Funds or at the bank.

Taxation

PCCs, with an income lower than £100,000, are currently excepted by statutory instrument from registration with the Charities Commission. However, the PCC has registered in its own right with the Charities Commission and is a recognised charitable body and may claim tax refunds on Gift Aid contributions, receive investment income without deduction of income tax and benefit from the tax reliefs available to registered charities. The PCC is exempt from tax on income and gains to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects. Corporation tax may become due on activities considered to be trading.
