Bay Church (Torbay)

Annual Report

for the period ended 30 June 2025

Aim and Purpose

Bay Church is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (‘CIO’) which is governed by trustees who have the responsibility of cooperating with the Project Lead, the Reverend Matt Bray, in promoting across the Torbay area, the whole mission of the Church – pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. As well as the Church itself, which is a Grade II Listed Building, the CIO is also responsible for maintaining the Church Hall. The CIO leases the church from the benefice of Paignton Parish and the church hall from the Paignton Parish Church Council.

The object of the CIO is to advance the Christian faith for the benefit of the public living in Torbay in accordance with the tenets of the Church of England and in accordance with the statements of belief appearing in the schedule. The vision of Bay Church is to see Jesus loved, the Church alive and society transformed in Torbay and beyond. We aim to build a thriving and sustainable church which contributes to the Diocesan vision to grow in prayer, make new disciples and serve the people of the Devon with joy.

Objectives and Activities

The CIO is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our Church, and to become part of our church family. When planning our activities, the CIO has considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit, and in particular the specific guidance to charities for the advancement of religion. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer, worship and scripture. We try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our church family, to see:

To facilitate this work, it is vital that we maintain the fabric of both the Church and the Hall.

Achievements and performance

Worship and Prayer

We have continued to grow as a church numerically, with those who call Bay Church their home. The previous year saw a plateau in church growth, but after the introduction of a second morning service our numbers began to increase again, and we now welcome nearly 300 attendees across all ages through the doors every Sunday for our worship and prayer gatherings.

Deanery Synod

Bay Church is a member of Torbay Deanery Synod and will nominate members of the Missional Roll to sit on the Deanery Synod. This provides the CIO with a link with the churches around us, and also with the Diocese as a whole. It also receives reports from the General Synod.

Church Fabric

Since the last report, works to provide new electrics and air source heating are complete, with running water and drainage for our new servery still underway. New toilets and accessibility measures have been completed. The Church hall (with additional funding received from the Church Commissioners) has had its roof repaired, electrics rewired, and toilets refreshed. Undergoing large re-ordering works throughout the summer of 2025 for better accessibility into the main hall space.

Mission and Evangelism

Bay Tots (a free weekly baby and toddler group) continues to be a warm and welcoming space for 100 people coming through the doors each week across all age groups. It has cemented its reputation within the bay, known across the area as one of the best offerings for parents/carers and their little ones.

We continue to run the Alpha course as an accessible model of evangelism. Each term we encourage the church to invite friends and family to try Alpha and to explore the big questions of life, faith and meaning. We have seen guests double on last year and we are doing so without a high turnover over of volunteers to run alpha. Instead, we have a small, committed team serving term by term with a passion for helping guests on their faith journeys. We have also seen this of social action involvement, with a small crew volunteering for all the programs.

Our ‘Spectacular’ Shows continue to grow in reputation and impact. Telling the Easter and Christmas stories to over 200 guests per showing with multiple showings across the day. And we continue to see a huge increase in attendance numbers from last year at our other big events such as our Light Parties, Christmas Family Markets and Crib services.

Group and Crew Involvement

Every other week people from the congregation gather in smaller groups in homes across the area, to study, pray, and read the bible together. These groups continue to be a place where people can find belonging and grow in their journeys of faith.

Our Crews are the teams of volunteers that serve every area in the life of the Church. Worship & Production, Home (Hospitality), Prayer, Kids, Youth and Bless the Bay. Crews meet twice a term for training and encouragement, and they serve throughout the week in various events and services.

Financial Review

The total unrestricted income for the year was £204,349 (2024: £165,832) of which £170,301 (2024: £133,940) was donations. The £289,442 (2024: £714,386) of restricted income includes £286,514 (2024: £600,114) of Strategic Development Fund income from the Archbishops’ Council. £581,302 (2024: £811,313) was spent to provide Christian ministry at Bay Church. The amount also includes £265,127 spent on major improvements to the church and hall buildings, of which £263,699 was funded through the Strategic Development Fund income.

The net result for the year was a surplus of £53,754 (2024: Deficit of £8,187) on Unrestricted Funds and a deficit of £141,265 (2024: Deficit of £77,092) on Restricted Funds.

Reserves Policy

The CIO aims to hold free reserves broadly equivalent to 3 months’ expenditure (£70,000) for the following reasons:

  1. To manage cash flow and contractual obligations;

  2. In case of significant building maintenance being required; and

  3. Against loss of income whilst buildings are not available for rental.

However, as this is only the CIO’s forth year of activity and the majority of expenditure is funded through the Strategic Development Fund (SDF) grant, the trustees have agreed to operate with a higher reserves balance in the short term, to allow a buffer as the SDF grant reduces in future years.

The total net assets as at the year-end were £199,591 (2024: £287,102, and of these £193,732 (2024: £139,978) is unrestricted and £5,859 (2024: £147,124 is restricted reserves.

Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. There are no material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubts upon the CIO’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Bay Church (Torbay) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Period Ending 30 June 2025

1. Accounting policies Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared under the Charities Act 2011 and in accordance with Church Accounting Regulations 2006 together with the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS 102).

The financial statements have been prepared under the historic cost convention.

The CIO meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the CIO.

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. There are no material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubts upon the CIO's ability to continue as a going concern.

Funds

General funds represent the funds of the CIO that are not subject to any restrictions regarding their use and are available for application on the general purposes of the CIO. Funds designated for a particular purpose by the CIO are also not restricted.

Restricted funds are income funds that must be spent on restricted purposes and details of the funds held and restrictions provided are shown in the notes to the accounts.

The financial statements include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the CIO is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of the church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body nor those that are informal gatherings of church members.

Income

Donations and legacies

Planned giving, collections and general donations are recognised only when received.

Gift aid recoverable on donations is recognised when the donation is received.

Grants and legacies to the CIO are recognised as soon as the CIO is notified of its legal entitlement, the amount due is quantifiable and its ultimate receipt by the CIO is probable.

Charitable activities

Income from church fee income is recognised when the fee is due. Income from activities is accounted for gross.

Other trading activities

Rental income is recognised when the rent is due. Where income is received in advance, it is recognised in the year in which the event takes place that it relates to.

Investments

Interest entitlements are accounted for as they accrue.

Bay Church (Torbay) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Period Ending 30 June 2025

1. Accounting policies (continued)

Expenditure

Raising funds

Expenditure on raising funds is accounted for on the accruals basis.

Charitable activities

Expenditure on charitable activities is accounted for on the accruals basis.

Grants are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding obligation on the CIO.

Tangible fixed assets

Consecrated land and buildings and moveable church furnishing

Consecrated and beneficed property is excluded from the accounts by s10(2)(a) of the Charities Act 2011.

No value is placed on moveable church furnishings held by the churchwardens of Paignton Parish on special trust for the CIO and which require a faculty for disposal since the CIO considers this to be inalienable property. All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or beneficed buildings and moveable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement, is written off as expenditure in the SOFA and separately disclosed.

Other fixed assets

Other fixed assets are recognised at cost. Individual assets with a purchase price less than £1,000 are written off when the asset is acquired.

Depreciation has been provided on other fixed assets on a straight-line basis in order to write off the cost of the assets over the following estimated useful lives:

Debtors

Amounts owing to the charity at 30 June in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors less provision for any amounts that may prove uncollectable. These are recognised initially at the settlement amount. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid, net of any trade discounts due.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, and other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Creditors

Creditors are recognised when the charity has an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Creditors are recognised at the amount that the charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payment for the goods or services it must provide.

Financial instruments

The CIO only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. All (including debtors and creditors) are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

10 Contingent assets

During 2021, Bay Church was awarded a Strategic Development Funding (SDF) grant of £1,499,803 by the Archbishops’ Council towards the cost of growing mission in Torbay over 5 years. An additional sum of £386,018 was awarded in late 2022 for additional capital works. This grant was applied for by the Exeter Diocesan Board of Finance (EDBF), acting as an agent on behalf of Bay Church. Operational grants are claimed in advance on a bi-annual basis. Grants for capital expenditure are claimed when

contracts/tenders are signed. All moneys go through EDBF and are passed on to Bay Church. Each claim requires approval by administrators of the SDF to ensure it is in line with the original budget submitted. The Archbishops’ Council reserves the right to terminate the award if it becomes substantially unlikely that Bay Church will be able to deliver its outcomes as set out in the original grant application. These performance related conditions prevent the full recognition of the grant. So far Bay Church has managed to meet the conditions, so there does not appear to be a reason why SDF income will not be available in 2025-26. Of the total grant, £1,386,895.41 has been recognised, leaving £498,925.27 as a contingent asset.
