## **Structure, governance and management.**
The PCC is a corporate body established by the Church of England and it operates under the Parochial Church Powers Measure.

**2025 Report and Accounts for the Parochial Church Council of The Trinity Parish**
## **Trustees Annual Report for the Parochial Church Council of The Trinity Parish**
## **Aims and Purposes**
Trinity Parochial Church Council (PCC) is responsible for cooperating with the Incumbent, the Revd Peter Lillicrap in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social, and ecumenical. The PCC is also responsible for the maintenance and insurance of St Mark’s Church Layton and St Luke’s Church Staining and for Hope Church.
## **Objectives and Activities**
The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship in our churches and to become part of the Trinity parish community. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish and makes suggestions on how our services can involve the many groups living in our parish. Our services and worship put faith into practice through growing opportunities for service to the local population.
When planning our activities for the year, we have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the supplementary guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. In keeping with the Diocesan initiative, “Vision 2026” our objectives can be summarised as the growth of the Church and Parish Centre in the service of the local community as well as those who share our life from further afield.
We try to enable individuals to live out their faith as part of our parish community through:
- Worship and prayer; learning about the gospel; and developing their knowledge and trust in Jesus.
- Provision of pastoral care for people living in the parish.
- Missionary and outreach work.
## **Financial Report**
Total receipts on unrestricted funds were £64,428 (2024 £82,119) of which £42,429 (2024 £60,700) were unrestricted voluntary donations.
Our parish share for the year was £64,498 and we are grateful to have received a grant of £23,199 as we are classed as a low-income community. We also received support from the diocese of £29,299 and the balance of £12,000 (2024 £32,748) was paid in full. Parish Share is a voluntary payment to the Diocese and provides in the main for the stipend, housing and pension contributions of clergy and also training for both ordained and lay people.
Planned again reduced slightly during the year although unplanned giving increased. Overall giving decreased again in 2024. Our overall giving remains good, and it is helpful that many now give their donations through standing orders or the Parish Giving Scheme which ensures a stable income and allows the PCC to plan effectively for spending.
St Luke’s and St Mark’s now have contactless portable machines, and this is proving helpful as there is generally less cash in use and ideal for moving to different locations. A big thank you to the people who gave so generously in supporting the purchasing of the machines.
During the year we paid out £59,979 (2024 £67,304) on major repairs at St Mark’s and were grateful for grant funding of £51,780 (2024 £17,069) to help with these costs.
The generosity of our congregations is underpinned by their enthusiasm to continue to spread the good news of the risen Lord throughout the parish. It is a testament to those congregations of the past, present and with God’s help, the future.
## **Reserves Policy**
At £27,762 (2024 £31,941) the unrestricted cash reserves were equivalent to just over 4 months’ outgoings. This reduction is because of the planned use of reserves for the Building for the Future project.

## **Vicar’s Report 2025**
## **Joyful Followers of Jesus**
Seeing lives changed and communities filled with hope
As we look back over 2025, we give thanks for the many ways in which God has been at work across the Trinity Parish. Throughout the year we have continued seeking to grow as joyful followers of Jesus, praying that lives will be changed and our communities filled with hope.
Our involvement in the diocesan Parish renewal programme and Leading Your Church into Growth has helped us reflect on how we live out this calling together as a parish.
## **Knowing Jesus**
At the heart of parish life is the call to know Jesus more deeply through worship, prayer, and the teaching of Scripture.
During the year our Sunday teaching series has taken us through the Book of Acts, helping us reflect on the mission of the early church and how we are called to live as Christ’s witnesses today.
Our Monday and Friday Bible study groups continue to grow and have been a great encouragement as people dig deeper into God’s word together. The Wednesday Communion, Cake and Chat gatherings have also become a valued space for worship, fellowship, and spiritual encouragement.
Across the parish we have been encouraged to share our faith stories, reminding us that the transforming love of Christ continues to be at work in people’s lives.
I am very grateful to Rev’d Canon Dr Simon Cox (PTO/Assistant Minister) for his faithful support in preaching, teaching, and pastoral ministry across the parish.
## **Highlights**
- Sunday teaching series through the Book of Acts
- Growing participation in Bible study groups
- Midweek worship through Communion, Cake and Chat
- Congregation members sharing their faith stories
As we grow in knowing Jesus together, we pray that our lives will be continually shaped by his word and his grace.
## **Sharing Our Faith**
We continue to look for opportunities to share the good news of Jesus with those around us.
During the year we held a Harvest Mission Weekend, including a ceilidh evening, a guest talk, and an invitation to our Harvest services. Events such as Afternoon Triniteas, led by Mark Surtees and the team, provide welcoming spaces where friends and neighbours can enjoy hospitality while hearing thoughtful talks about the Christian faith.
It has been a real encouragement to see new people joining us for worship across the parish during the year.

**2025 Report and Accounts for the Parochial Church Council of The Trinity Parish**
We have also produced a parish card explaining how people can support the life of the church through prayer, serving and giving, helping everyone see their part in the mission of the church.
## **Highlights**
- Harvest Mission Weekend including ceilidh and guest speaker
- Outreach through Afternoon Triniteas
- New people joining worship across the parish
- Parish Prayer, Serving and Giving card produced
As we share our faith with others, we pray that many more people will discover the hope found in Jesus Christ .
## **Loving Our Neighbour**
Serving our communities remains a vital part of our calling as a parish.
During the year we supported the establishment of a CAP Debt Centre at St Thomas’, which we look forward to seeing launched in 2026.
We were also pleased to host a Christmas meal for around sixty people who might otherwise have been alone or struggling during the festive season.
Our ministry of hospitality continues to build relationships within our communities, whether through Afternoon Triniteas, Hope Community Church gatherings, or the many informal opportunities for conversation and prayer.
Our Pastoral Care Team, led by Caroline Lillicrap, continues to offer prayer and support across the parish. Prayer trees at both St Mark’s and St Luke’s provide simple but meaningful ways for people to share their prayers and concerns along the prayer ministry at St Mark’s after the services.
## **Highlights**
- Supporting the launch of a CAP Debt Centre
- Hosting a Christmas meal for around 60 guests
- Ongoing ministry of pastoral care and prayer
- Opportunities for Prayer.
As we love our neighbours in practical ways, we pray that our communities will experience the compassion and hope of Christ.
## **Inspiring Young People**
It has been especially encouraging to see growing connections with children and young people across the parish.
The Triniteens Youth Group continues to flourish thanks to a committed team of volunteers. Each week the young people share a meal together, explore Bible stories, and enjoy games and activities in a welcoming environment.
Our relationship with the Beavers and Cubs continues to grow, including church visits, sleepover events, and participation in All-Age worship services.
We are grateful to the Girls Friendly Society team and the links we have with them at St Mark’s.
6
**2025 Report and Accounts for the Parochial Church Council of The Trinity Parish**
We are also grateful for our developing links with local schools. We regularly lead assemblies and collective worship in Boundary Primary School and Layton Primary School, and have welcomed pupils into church on a number of occasions.
The relationship with Staining C of E Primary School continues to grow through regular collective worship and the involvement of pupils and staff in All-Age services at St Luke’s.
## **Highlights**
- Triniteens Youth Group continuing to flourish
- Growing links with Beavers and Cubs, including sleepovers
- Assemblies and church visits with Boundary and Layton Primary Schools
- Developing partnership with Staining C of E Primary School
As we invest in young people, we pray that a new generation will come to know and follow Jesus.
## **Forming Christ-like Leaders**
God continues to raise up people across the parish who serve faithfully in many different ways.
We remain deeply grateful for the leadership and commitment of volunteers across the parish — those who lead youth work, organise events, serve in worship, support pastoral care, and help in many unseen ways.
It has been particularly encouraging to see people stepping forward to share in ministry and leadership within the life of the church. As part of this, we have put Aidan forward to explore licensed ministry, and we look forward to seeing how the Lord continues to guide and shape this calling.
Our involvement in the Leading Your Church into Growth programme has also helped us reflect more intentionally on how we nurture discipleship and leadership across the parish.
During the year we also said farewell to Rev’d Matt Rowley, who had served the parish faithfully since 2018, first as Church Army Lead Evangelist planting the church on Grange Park and later as Curate from 2022. We remain very thankful for his ministry among us.
We are also grateful for the administrative support of Wendy Reeds, whose work as PA to both the Area Dean and the Vicar helps support the smooth running of parish life and communication.
## **Highlights**
- Parish participation in Leading Your Church into Growth
- Volunteers stepping forward in ministry and leadership
- Aidan exploring licensed ministry
- Faithful service of parish ministry teams
As we form Christ-like leaders, we pray that God will continue to raise up people to serve his church and his mission.
## **Our Church Communities**
## **St Mark’s Layton**
We have seen significant progress in the Building for the Future project with the completion of the new entrance and toilet facilities. These improvements have greatly enhanced accessibility and welcome. We remain thankful for diocesan support, particularly the disability access grant.

**2025 Report and Accounts for the Parochial Church Council of The Trinity Parish**
## **St Luke’s Staining**
A faithful worshipping community continues to be re-established, supported by the St Luke’s Steering Group. The growing relationship with Staining C of E Primary School has been particularly encouraging, though the building continues to require maintenance.
## **Hope Community Church**
Hope Community Church on Grange Park has continued developing its ministry following the reopening of the Boathouse Community Centre. Regular gatherings include worship, prayer meetings, bingo evenings, and seasonal outreach such as the Carol Service. The HCC Steering Group continues to guide the work, and we are grateful that the ministry is now supported through HCC funds.
## **Safeguarding**
We remain committed to maintaining the highest safeguarding standards across the parish. Our thanks go to Sarah Gardner, our Parish Safeguarding Officer, and the safeguarding team for their diligent work in ensuring safeguarding practices are maintained.
## **Looking Ahead**
As we enter a new year we do so with grateful hearts and renewed hope. We trust in God’s faithfulness and pray that he will continue to grow us as joyful followers of Jesus, seeing lives changed and our communities filled with hope.
May God bless you as you continue to serve him.

## **Independent Examiners’ Report**
Independent Examiner's Report to the members/trustees of Trinity Parish
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31st December 2025 which are set out on pages 10-16
## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and Independent Examiner**
As trustees of the charity, the members of the PCC are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. They consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act.
- follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
- 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 management committee concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in a full 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 matters have come to my attention.
1. which give me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
- to keep accounting records in accordance with s.130 of the 2011 Act: or
- to prepare accounts which accord with these accounting records have not been met; or
2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
