## **Treasurer’s Report 2025**
Total income increased by just under £7,000. This was mainly due to increases in planned giving, hall income (prompter invoices and collection of monies due) and fundraising events (Summer BBQ and Children’s Christmas party). We also received more income by contactless collection (Sum Up/Just Giving). However due to timing differences on claiming gift aid, relative to prior years, total gift aid has not increased proportionally as much as income but will be corrected in the following year.
Total expenses in our general fund did not increase as much as our income, by just over £5,000, leaving us with a **modest surplus of just under £1,700** . It is worth noting this is better than the previous two years where we have been in deficit at the end of the year.
We have now received the Quinquennial Report and are aware there are repairs and maintenance we need to carry out at the Church next year which will cost around £5,000. We have also increased our pledge to the diocese by 5.7% so there is a further £3,500 we will need to raise.
The PCC is aware of this and are planning further fundraising events in 2026.
The PCC agreed to close the Discretionary Fund and donate the money to the Smith Charity who were in a better position to use the money (£850) for those parishioners in South Nutfield in need.
We also closed the Ukraine Fund which was set up when Russia first invaded Ukraine and the small amount left in this fund (£281.65) was used to contribute towards the cost of the memorial stones in the Remembrance Garden at the Church.
The reserves in the General Fund are just under 2.6 x monthly expenditure. (The Diocese of Southwark’s recommended range is 3 to 6 x monthly expenditure.)
As usual, we have had some movement in the numbers of people using planned giving with some moving away or reducing giving and some starting or increasing regular giving. We are very thankful to those people who donate to keep this church and centre available to all. May God bless you.
My thanks go to the rest of the finance team: Liz Braines and Sue Wayland. Thanks to Graham Skeats for carrying out the independent examination of the accounts.

out on pages I to 5, is in respect of an examination carried out in accordance with Church Accountir
Rwlatx)ns 2(X)6 {"thè Regulations.) and section 145 of the Charities Act 20111.the Acr).
Respecuve resp51b111lles of the PCC and the examlner
As members of the PCC you are responsible for the preparation of the financial ststements. You consider
that the audit requirement of the Regulations and section 144{21 of the Act do not apply. It is mv
responsibility to issue this report on those financial statements in accordance with the terms of the
Regulations.
Basls of thls report
examination was carried out in attordance with the General Directions given by the Charity
Commission under section 145{5lb of the Act and to befound in the Church Guidance, 26 edition. issued
by the Finance Division of the Archbishops. Council. That examination includes a review of the accountin8
records kept by the PCC and a comparison of the accounts with those record5. It also includes considering
any unusual items or disclosures in the financial 5tstements and seeking explanations from you as trustees
conteming any such matters. The pr¢xedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be
required in an audiL and conwiuently I do not expressan auditopinion on theviewgiven by the accounts.
Indepwdent examlnerf$ statem•it
In Connection with my exarninotion. no matter has come to my attention:
{11 vthich gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any mater1 respert the requirements
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act. and
to prepare financial ststements which accord with the accounting records and comply with
the requirements of the Art and the Regulations
have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be dra in order to enable a proper understsnding of
the financial statements to be reached.
