## **ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION** 

## STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT 

The Parochial Church Council ("PCC") is a corporate body established by the Church of England. The PCC operates under the Parochial Church Council (Powers) Measure 1956 (as amended). The PCC is a charity registered with the Charity Commission as 'The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of Saint Mark, Clerkenwell' (Reg. No. 1193335). The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. The PCC is made up of five ex officio members and up to nine elected members. There is a Standing Committee which deals with urgent business. The PCC Members are elected at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting, which was held in 2022 on Sunday 8[th] May.

## OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES 

Together with the PCC we work to promote in the Parish of St Mark Clerkenwell the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The PCC also has responsibility for the maintenance of the building, which is used throughout the week by a variety of organisations. The PCC has regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit. 

## ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE 

The number on the electoral roll at the date of the 2022 APCM was 59. The average attendance in 2022 was 18 on Sunday Mornings and 6 at services in the week. 

SAFEGUARDING STATEMENT 

The PCC has complied with the 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).

## **VICAR’S REPORT** 

As I approach the tenth anniversary of my arrival in Clerkenwell in the autumn, it’s good to reflect on all that has happened in this time, and to give thanks for many positive developments. One thing which has marked the last decade particularly is our concern for the condition of our building. We have continued to make good progress with the rejuvenation of St Mark’s over the last year with the completion of our much-needed heating project; I’m sure I’m not alone in having noted the distinctly unfamiliar feeling of being warm in church in the latter part of last winter! We have also recently received a Cloudesley-funded access audit, which will assist the PCC in considering what might be next. 

Our music programme has also developed over the last year with (roughly) monthly Choral Evensong with guest preachers and hospitality afterwards. This has proved popular, with attendance running at least double, but frequently three or four times the Sunday morning congregation. I hope that this initiative will continue and that it might play a yet more significant part in our future ministry. 

On the music front, I’d like to thank Thomas Kell who continues to offer such excellent music week by week. In particular we thank him for his Sunday evening input from which he stepped back in December. I’m grateful too to Emma Leggat who makes a significant journey to offer a great contribution to our Sunday morning worship. 

This year the Mediatio Centre celebrates its 10[th] anniversary, and it has been a joy for many of us to be present for a number of the events to mark this milestone. The presence of WCCM here at St Mark’s is important for us, and it is a great encouragement to me to know that prayerful meditation takes place here each weekday. 

In addition to my responsibilities here, I was licensed as Priest-in-Charge of Holy Trinity, Hoxton last June, and Fr Aidan was also licensed to serve there (although he has day-to-day responsibility). I realise that this has meant that you do not see as much of him, or that we often appear together. It is important for us to acknowledge the decline in church attendance nationally, and the need to support other parishes where possible. This reality, of course, actually makes our Choral Evensong initiative all the more impressive, as it attracts not only a growing congregation but also people from other parishes, not least our neighbours at Holy Redeemer. We are, after all, part of a church which is not simply local. 

Tribute, as always, must be paid to the Churchwardens and the many others who keep the show on the road day-by-day at St Mark’s. Our core numbers are small at present, and this means that a lot falls on the shoulders of a few. I recognise the effort and commitment shown by all who contribute to our life together, and am deeply grateful for it.

## **CHURCHWARDENS’ REPORT** 

Throughout the year there was a continued focus on the needs of the church building, its users and visitors. As a building nearly two centuries old St Marks requires ongoing care as well as an understanding of its particular requirements. 

Repairs to the outside of the church behind the chapel, which included repointing and the realignment of some coping stones, ensured that water ingress to the chapel which had caused a significant crack was dealt with. There are plans to repair and redecorate the chapel when all trace of damp has disappeared. Additionally some work was undertaken to the south wall gutter and its surrounds where water was, again, coming in. In anticipation of the renewal of the heating in the church space the back wall was painted after years of bare plaster which was a significant improvement. 

During the latter part of the year the church heating project was completed with the necessary electric work taking place and the removal of the overhead heating elements prior to the installation of radiant panels on the north and south walls with some additional heating under the choir stalls. All in all this led to a considerable aesthetic improvement as well as better heating. It was unfortunate that planned heating panels to be installed on the back wall of the church could not be commissioned as the electricity supply to Myddelton Square was insufficient to support these. This remains a matter that will be progressed with the electricity supplier. Sufficient funds have been retained to complete the work and sincere thanks go to the Cloudesley Trust and Islington Council which both provided grants toward the project to complement St Marks’ fund raising efforts. 

The Churchwardens ensured that the general maintenance of the building was ongoing with risk and health and safety in mind and also that work was put in hand to repair the handrails at both sides of the main entrance steps that had regrettably been damaged. A grant toward this work was, again, kindly provided by Cloudesley. In April it was good to be able to welcome visitors from Cloudesley, both staff and several trustees, and be able to thank them and show them some of the projects that had received grant funding and how their generosity had benefited the church. 

St Marks’ “New to You” shop which is open on Saturdays continued to provide not only income to support church projects but also an opportunity for visitors to view the church and for “regulars” to drop in, chat and feel at home. We were also delighted to have a volunteer gardener to help keep the gardens at the front of the church attractive and weed free. 

The Churchwardens continued to undertake the general administration of the church and finally introduced payment by bank transfer saving time and cost. The bookkeeping arrangements worked well delivering clear and useful Statements of Financial Activities which were well received. 

During the year the church space and Parish Room were let out from time to time. This included for filming, a toddlers’ music group, local association meetings and a carol service for a local school which filled the church with well over 300 people. 

Over the year we again enjoyed engaging with both Trinity Church and WCCM and thank them for their support. We continued to very much appreciate the wide range of music provided so very ably by Thomas our organist with the hope that in 2023 the organ project can finally get underway. 

Last but certainly not least our sincere thanks go to both Fr Christopher and Fr Aidan who, whilst managing an increased amount of work, always found time to support and provide considered thought to the wide range of issues we raised with them.

## **ORGANIST’S REPORT** 

Our musical year 2022 began on its very second day with Buxtehude leading us into the New Year. A week later we were joined by choristers from the resident group at Our Most Holy Redeemer for an evensong for Epiphany and the Feast of the Dedication of the Church. Choral repertoire included mainstays of the English repertoire and the service was bookended by two major organ pieces by Maurice Duruflé. Another choral evensong was delivered on the Eve of St Mark’s Day with music by Rheinberger, Daniel Purcell and Tomkins. The choir attended the Advent Carol service where repertoire included Judith Weir’s atmospheric setting of part of the Advent Prose. Thanks are due to the choir’s director, Daniel Gethin, for his leadership of the choral events. 

The bulk of the evensongs were served – as they have been for over 20 years – entirely effectively by the organ. The organist is thankful for the opportunity to have prepared and played so many treasured pieces of music over these years. He was particularly delighted to have been able to conclude the summer term with realisation of a long-held ambition to learn and perform Louis Vierne’s song-cycle Les Angelus. The wonderful soprano Alice Beverley joined him in these evocative songs for the evening. 

Through the year Emma Deane has again travelled from Hertfordshire whenever she could – often with her family – to sing on Sunday mornings. The Organist is very grateful for her long-standing commitment to St Mark’s. He is also thankful for the support received from the congregation and clergy. 

The Organist’s fingers shared the appreciation for the new heating system, not only because of the welcome and unaccustomed warmth on winter Sunday mornings but also because the completion of this project may allow attention to turn to our plans to repair and beautify our remarkable Harrison and Harrison organ. The pandemic era illustrated afresh how much we rely on it and the importance of its role in our worship. It will be good to deliver the investment into it that is deserved and awaited.

## **JUNIOR CHURCH (SUNDAY SCHOOL)** 

Around 10 children attended services throughout the year. The Parish Room was used for regular prayers and Bible teaching, following the Gospel readings taking place in the main church together with a variety of activities suitable to the various age groups. This year the volunteer older child again assisted with Bible reading and helped the younger children to extinguish the Altar candles at the conclusion of the church service. There continued to be a regular adult team who assisted in organizing and helping with Sunday School and they are thanked for their support. June Braybrook 

## **SAFEGUARDING REPORT** 

This Report is to assure the Church family that the leadership teams of each church have complied with their duty to have “due regard” to the House of Bishops’ guidance on safeguarding - remembering the attitude of the people of the church is Gospel of Grace and not a culture of fear. 

The PCC signs a safeguarding policy declaration which states that St Marks follow the Church of England Safeguarding Policy. The current policy is required to be updated to be in line with New London Diocese current policy and this will be actioned in May 2023 following the APCM. 

There have been no serious safeguarding incidents or allegations – the only incident was the theft of charity monies with no personal involvement. It is pleasing to report that all PCC members completed Basic Safeguarding, Awareness, Foundations Awareness and Raising Awareness of Domestic Abuse, the latter 

_Page 5_ 



being completed in November 2022. St Marks’ yearly Audit is now all on line and complete. June Braybrook attended a Zoom meeting for safeguarding representatives and found it most informative. The Diocese of London’s Safeguarding Team phone number is 020 3837 5101 or 020 7932 1224.

## **FINANCE REPORT** 

These remarks are based on the Management Accounts for 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2022, prepared by Charity Bookkeeping and Examination Services, in advance of the Report on the 2022 Accounts by the Independent Examiner, Data Developments. 

## _FINANCIAL SUMMARY_ 

## _INCOME AND EXPENDITURE IN 2022_ 

St Marks’ income for the year amounted to £143,642 (2021: £87,984) and expenditure for the year amounted to £112,466 (2021: £67,116) resulting in an excess of income over expenditure of £31,176 (2021: £20,868). The substantial increase in revenue and expenditure in 2022 was due largely to donations for, and expenditure on, the heating project. 

## _ASSETS AND LIABILITIES_ 

At the end of 2022 St Marks held in cash £86,695 at CAF Bank (£56,476 in 2021) and this represented the total reserves at year-end (£55,518 in 2021). 

## _FUND REPORTS_ 

All funds are held in the CAF Bank Cash/Current Account. For accounting purposes, they are divided into seven funds: five Restricted Funds, the Contingency (Designated) Fund and the General (Unrestricted) Fund. The new heating for the church became operational during 2022, with revenue from donations exceeding expenditure. As a result, the Heating Fund ended the year with funds of £24,868 (£15,336 in 2021). This reserve will be held for completion of the project once UK Power Networks have upgraded the local network. At the end of the year, the Organ Fund was £9099 (£5539 in 2021); the new Pulpit Restoration Fund was £176; the Relief Fund was £4030 (£2430 in 2021); and the Youth & Education Fund was £6911 (£6911 in 2021). 

The Contingency (Designated) Fund was established in 2018 following the Archdeacon’s Visitation when it was recommended that the PCC set up a contingency fund to help meet the costs of unforeseen items of expenditure, particularly repairs and maintenance related to the church building. During 2022 £1000 per month was transferred to this fund, and at the close of the year the total Fund was £24,000 (£12,000 in 2021). At year end, the total General (Unrestricted) Fund was £17,611, a small increase over the year of £4308. 

## _RESERVES POLICY_ 

The PCC’s policy for reserves in excess of need is to make charitable donations to the wider church or other charities. In 2022 St Marks was able to honour its commitment to the Common Fund with a substantial contribution of £26,000 (£26,500 in 2021). The Common Fund includes an element of charitable activities and our Archdeacon advised that we needed to prioritise our responsibility towards the needs of the building ahead of donating any excess. This was the basis of the establishment of the Contingency Fund in 2019. Hugh Ferguson 

Treasurer

## **FABRIC REPORT** 

Fire risk assessment took place as necessary and remained constantly monitored. Fire extinguishers were replaced where required and certain other fire safety works carried out. The church lightening conductor was also tested. 

The electric oven in the Parish Room was replaced with the assistance of a grant from Islington Council which was most welcome. The gas hob, whilst in no way unsafe, cannot be replaced with an electric hob until the power supply to the church is increased. 

## **DEANERY SYNOD REPORT** 

There were the usual three meetings during the course of the year, and we were glad to be able to meet in person rather than on Zoom.   The principal items discussed were a motion to General Synod asking for the cancellation of Church investments in Fossil Fuels, and to urge Lambeth Conference delegates to reflect earnestly on Climate Change.  Consideration was also given to a Deanery Synod Nominee for a position on the Cloudesley Trust.  On another occasion Mohammed Forzar of the Finsbury Mosque gave a presentation about the community services provided by that organisation. Alison Tsang made a report on Compassionate Communities, dealing with the Homeless, provision of shelter, clothes and advice on forms applying for assistance.  The wider use of Food Banks was also mentioned. 

Notification was given concerning alterations in the Barnsbury Parish, and the realignment of churches into separate Parishes to give better support for the worshipping communities and their Priests.  This reorganisation is due to be put in place in the near future. 

Jill Courtnell 

St Mark’s Representative and  Deanery Lay Chair. 

## **TRINITY CHURCH ISLINGTON** 

Trinity Church is very grateful to St Marks, as ever, for their warm hospitality, and 2022 marked the 14[th] year that Trinity has been able to partner with the parish church. As we came out of the pandemic, we were not only grateful to meet again without restriction, but noticed a number of enquirers joining us for the first time. 

New initiatives included ‘Blast - Off Sundays’ – an event for primary school age children on a local estate – and a ‘Hope Explored’ course for newcomers and those interested in the Gospel. We were also able to hold an evening called ‘Sweetness and Jazz’, where in a packed -out room upstairs we listened to improvised jazz music and heard a testimony from one of the musicians. In addition, we said goodbye to Nathan Richards from the staff team, and added Madhush Matthews as a pastoral assistant and Siân Godsmark as a part-time children’s worker. We also maintai ned our weekly 4.30pm services, small groups on a Tuesday evening, and Tots group on a Thursday. 

We remain very thankful for St Mark’s ongoing support.

## **WORLD COMMUNITY FOR CHRISTIAN MEDITATION** 

St Mark’s Church hosts the international office of the WCCM,  Meditatio and The Meditatio Centre and now the UK office of the WCCM. The UK arrived back with us on 20 March – after some time operating from an office in Ealing. 

The WCCM is a global spiritual community united in the practice of meditation in the Christian tradition. WCCM director is the Benedictine Monk, Laurence Freeman. 

It shares the fruits of this practice widely and inclusively, serving the unity of all and building understanding between faiths and cultures. Members of WCCM span more than a hundred countries. There are about sixtyseven national coordinators. Its international centre is Bonnevaux – an ancient monastic site now dedicated to global peace and dialogue around the daily practice of meditation – near Poitiers in France. Our mission: _To communicate and nurture meditation as passed on through the teaching of John Main in the Christian tradition in the spirit of serving the unity of all._ 

Meditatio is the outreach of WCCM, teaching meditation in schools, prisons, to those on the margins of society and in recovery from addiction or trauma as well as looking at the common ground between wisdom traditions in the spirit of silence. 

Through the week there are a number of  office personnel present. W e are not all working every day- that would be a – bit of a squeeze -  but we try to make sure that the office is covered every day. Meditation is offered Monday Thursday at lunchtime. 

The Meditatio Centre celebrates its 10[th] Anniversary in March 2023! Our programme offers offer online and in person events around meditation and contemplative Christianity.  Please do look at our current programme and join us. www.meditatiocentrelondon.org/events. 

The WCCM International Centre in Bonnevaux, France welcomes visitors to stay in the retreat centre there to join the programme or for personal retreats. You can also go and volunteer there.  It also has a programme of online events   www.bonnevauxwccm.org 

We continue to value the generosity and support of Fr Christopher, Rosemary, Martin and all at St Marks. We feel welcome and very happy to be a part of your church community and the community of Trinity Church. 

Kate Middleton on behalf of WCCM. 

## **4th CLERKENWELL RAINBOWS BROWNIES AND GUIDES** 

Rainbows 5, Brownies 7, Guides 5 

It has not been too good a year as a few of our older guider members sadly passed away, including Carol and Betty and also Angela, who was a big help to the Groups with fund raising events. They are very much missed. The good news is that there is another mum, Tina, who is interested in helping with the Rainbows and is in the throes of sorting out her DBS. She hopes to become a unit helper. 

The themes included Know Myself, Express Myself, Be Well, Have Adventures, Take Action and Skills for My Future. Through the year the Rainbows decided they wanted to do the themes Know Myself and Reflect, so they carried out the syllabus for the Family Tree badge, did a number of UMÅs, designed a flag, had fun completing UMA Festival Fun with Personal Safety and Self Defence, they also completed Reflect Stage 2. They attended a fun day with the Brownies at Blacklands Farm where they learnt circus skills, dance routines and did bungee up and down. They also received the offer to see Matilda at the Cinema around Christmas time. Also for the Queen’s birthday they helped make crowns and bunting with the Brownies for our party. 

_Page 8_ 



The Brownies were busy this year with their skills builder “Innovate”. Stage 2 made baskets to take home cakes they made which counted towards their baking badge, they completed UMA Look Feel Jump, made an edible architecture, made pancakes, completed UMA storytelling and bubbles. When our Queen died we took a floral tribute and laid it at Buckingham Palace gates. Some of the girls went to Magic Mayhem at Blacklands Farm. They made juggling balls and ribbon sticks, had Inflatables and did trampolining. To celebrate the Queen’s birthday Brownies and Guides made cream scones to raise money for Children with Cancer and raised £123.45p. 

For their party they organised their party food, made sandwiches, wrote out invitations and made a list of games. In September/ October they entered St Luke’s Big Art Exhibition “Feeling Good Art” on a postcard. They went on Pack Holiday with 1st Clerkenwell and Princes Risborough Brownies in Buckinghamshire. One of our Brownies marched in the parade that passed the Cenotaph. They also went to the Cinema and saw Matilda. 

The Guides were also busy. They chose to complete the Have Adventures Theme. They carried out whittling and also completed the Backwoods Cooking badge at Camp and the pitching and striking of tents. They did a BBQ in the grounds of the church and a number of UMA. Two of the Guides completed two Themes and so were awarded their bronze certificate. They went to camp at Bournemouth Scout Activity Camp, completed lots of outdoor pursuits, and also did First Aid Stage 3 skills builder. They chose two charities to raise funds for: Blue Cross Hospitals and CRISIS and raised £63 which was divided between the two. 

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Christine and her mother for the hard work fund-raising for the Group in order to help subsidise transport for camps and pack holidays etc. We thank Father Christopher for letting us use St Marks’ church premises, churchwardens Rosemary and Martin and our team of Leaders Sarah, Yvonne, Theresa, Sharon, Sophie, Jill, Joan (Ladybird) and the Meditation Centre, all who help keep 4th Clerkenwell Groups going.

## **Independent Examiner’s report** 

## **Accounts for the year ended 31[st] December 2022** 

## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and the examiner** 

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts and they consider that an audit is not required for the year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent 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 the 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 these records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required for an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to 

_Page 9_ 



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 matter has 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 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. 

Date: 4[th] May 2023
