TRusfEES' ANNUAL REPORT (COKllNUED) FOR THE 12 MONTHS ENDED 31st DECEMBER
2024
SUMMARY
The latest 12 months have seen the appointment of Rev LirKly Cameron as Associate Minister in April
and Rev Richard and Louise White as Rector in September. All 3 are settling in wdl to their various
roles and there is a f￿11￿j of excitement across the parish for the future.
The work to replace the r￿)f at St Nicholas has prcMJressaJ well, and although there was a delay when
it was discovered that the rafters needed replacing, by the end of 2024 the reroofing of the nave and
chancel were almost complete. It is hoped that it will be possible to have a reAled￿tiOn seNice in June.
ACHIEVEMEKfs AND PERFORMANCE
Trustees Report
2024 started with the parish in interregnum as the Ass(xiate Minister arKJ rector had retired in
2023, but by the end the 2024 V￿ had a new Ass(￿late Minister, Rev Lindy Cameron, and joint Rectors
in Rev Richard and Louise White. The new team abng with Rev N￿k Webb, Rev Ann Bond and Jane
Hudson have blended together V￿11 and we look forward to where they will lead us in the future. The
period of interregnum meant that we pulled together across the benefice to ensure services were
covered and we hope that that feeling of participation and cooperation will continue now that we have
the new ministers in place.
In April we ap[￿inted Nicky Glass(Kk as our new Be[rf￿ Administrator. Nicky has settled in well and
has provided great support to the parish.
As mentioned in last yearfs rqxjrt, the church r(x)f tssue at St Nicholas, Worth Matravers has
progressed well throughout the year. Unfortunatety, when the tiles were beiThJ removed it was
identified that all the rafters w)uld need to be replaced. adding over £80,000 to the costs. In respK)nse
to this situation additional grants were applied for and a totsl of nearly £46,(X)O was re£eived in 2024
with £30,000 frorn National Churches Trust, Benefactor Trust £7,7(X), Dorset Historic Churches Trust
£5,000, and Erskine Mutton Trust £3,000. Whilst we had IK)ped to reopen the church by the middle of
2024 this has had to be push￿1 back to June 2025. As the building work nears completion we are
stsrting to f￿uS on the second Pha￿ of the project which involves interpretation boards inside and
outside the church to tell the story of the building, Interattion with k)cal schools to help them
understand our heritage, plus VK]eos and digital displays. Thank you to ev￿[￿. eS￿lalIY Hugh and
Gw, for all the work put in to prixJressing the project to date.
Building Issues have b&n identif￿1 at St James and St George's which will need to be addr￿d in
2025 along with the challenge of funding the necessary repair&
During 2024 we were privileged to mary 8 couples at the thurches arKJ chapd across the parish. We
also attended a Wedding Festival in Cktober to promote our churches to those who may not have
previously consideraj a church wedding. The churches akn corKluC￿l 16 funeral Servi￿ in 2024.

The Christmas season again saw significant numbers attend the Christingle services in the parish and
the Advent and Carol serrfices, which was a great enCourag￿nent to everyone involved.
The parish continues to give sUp￿rt to the k)cal prfrsch¢X)l and school. through various mean5
induding a monthty prtrschool / reception class acbvity in the church, I￿￿11ng assemblies and acts of
worship, foundation govemors and the use of St George's Church for key school activities and
lebrations during the year.
The churches have Contin￿ to present the gostEI thrO￿h tradibonal Hoty Communion services with

Thank you to everyone who has participated in leading and supwrting these seNices and we look
forward to 4 people from the parish undertaking Lay Worship Leader trainiThJ in 2025.
After 3 years of being one parish, we continue to develop our relationships and structure, the Church
Cornmunity Teams have met to consider and progress individual church concerns and initiatNes and
the PCC has met in its trusteelgOveman￿ role. There have tEen some tweaks along the way, but
essentially the 'one parish, processes appear to be functioning appropriately.
The challenges for 2025 will be
Developing the clergy team with Revs Lindy, Richard and Louise
Explore opportunities to build on the numbers who attended the Christmas events
Completion of the St Nicholas r￿f project
maintenan￿ of the other church buildings

15. RISK ASSESSMENT
The Trustees actively review the major risks which the charity faces on a reglllar basis and ￿l1¢Ye that
maintainillg the free reservcs Stat￿ combined with the review of the controls over key financial systems carried
out on an annual basis will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. The trustees have
also examined other operdtional and business risks which they face and confirni that they have established
systems to rnitigate the significant risks.
16. RESERVES POLICY
The Trustees have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the charitys needs. This is
b&8ed on the charity's size and the level of fuw]cial committnents held. The Trustees aim to ensure the charity
will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in the income or
unexpected expenditure. The Trustees will endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily.
17. PUBLIC BENEFIT
The charity acknowledges its requirement to demonstrate clearly that it must have charitable purposes or 'aims'
that are for the public benefit. Details of how the charity has achieved this are provided in the TTUStees report.
The Trustees confinn that they have paid due regard to the Charity Comtnission guidance on public benefit
before deciding what a￿1vitieS the charity should undertake.
