The People’s LMA Warden,
The LMA Vicar(s) with primary pastoral responsibility for that Church, any Assistant Curate(s) with responsibility at these churches,
the Wardens of the relevant churches (for each church one warden appointed by the vicar and one elected at the Pre-Vestry AGM).
Elected at the Pre-Vestry AGM: a minimum of 6 people or a third of the electoral roll, whichever is the smaller. Co-Opted: a number not exceeding the number of those elected.
Elections are held at the Pre-Vestry AGM by the members of the congregation(s) who are on the electoral roll of the church(es).
OBJECTS AND ACTIVITIES
The objects of Roose LMA CIO are, for the public benefit, the advancement of religion in accordance with the doctrine, practices, beliefs and worship of the Church in Wales.
The Church in Wales is a Province within the Anglican Communion and seeks to advance the Christian religion through world-wide mission. It is the responsibility of the LMA Council and the clergy to work together and co-operate in all matters of concern and importance to the LMA for the promotion of the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The LMAC is responsible, among other things, for the LMA budget and all expenditure thereunder, the care and maintenance of Church
2
fabric, Churchyards and Halls, and for any action or other matter referred to it in accordance with the Constitution, and is the normal channel of communication between parishioners and the Diocesan Bishop.
As required by the Charities Act 2011, the LMAC has given due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission in respect of the requirement to operate for public benefit ("The Advancement of Religion for the Public Benefit") and have regard to it in their administration of the LMA. The activities undertaken to fulfil the LMAC’s purposes for the public benefit include:
-
providing resources and facilities for public worship and sacred space for personal prayer or contemplation
-
providing pastoral care, notably in the visiting of the sick and bereaved
-
providing spiritual, moral and intellectual teaching and development, both for its members and for everyone who wishes to benefit from what the Church offers
-
providing youth, children’s and social clubs and activities which have a Christian ethos
-
promoting Christian values and service to the communities in the Parish to the benefit of individuals and society as a whole
-
provision and upkeep of church halls for the church and community
REVIEW OF LMA COUNCIL ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS
The LMA Council met 5 times in the course of the year (January, May, July, September and November) with an additional short meeting following on immediately from the Annual Vestry Meeting in April.
Attendance averaged around 66%. The failure of some church committees to elect a representative to the LMA Council is concerning as it undermines the ability of the LMAC to fulfil its responsibilities of governance. Non-attendance of some members of the LMA Council is concerning for the same reason and also in increasing the risk of not being quorate for decision-making.
Business covered by the LMAC included:-
-
1 Governance: in order to delegate authority to church committees the LMA Council agreed standing orders by which church committees must operate and a formal means by which they report back to the LMA Council on activity and finance
-
2 Finance: the LMA Council
-
2.1 registered with the HMRC for gift aid and implemented a means by which individual churches finalise claims under the old system (pre CIO) and begin claims under the new system through the LMA Gift Aid Officer;
-
2.2 submitted for the first time its annual report and accounts to the Charity Commission;
-
2.3 implemented a new system of independent examination of accounts, necessitated by Charity Commission regulations, where the accounts for the whole LMA are examined as a block – individual churches will no longer get their accounts independently checked;
-
2.4 kept in discussion with Ecclesiastical Insurance about the LMA Council becoming the policy holder for all buildings, committees and activities in the LMA and all premiums being collected through the LMA Council. This will be implemented through 2025;
-
2.5 further consolidation of the online book-keeping system for treasurers, My Fund Accounting, and using it to appraise the LMAC of the financial situations in the 22 churches;
-
3 GDPR: The LMA Council registered with the Information Commissioners Office and produced a data audit for the LMA Council and church committees to implement
-
4 Development and use of the Church of the Holy Spirit
-
5 Creation care
-
6 Faculty applications
-
7 Safeguarding: the LMA hosted safeguarding training within the LMA for level B and C and adopted of the new Church in Wales Safeguarding Policy
-
8 Pruning for Growth
-
9 Priorities: the following three priorities were discussed and taken forward: 1 Youth, children and families (Planning a holiday club for summer 2025), 2 mission/evangelism, 3 communication (including, including LMA services for Ascension Day and Advent, praying together as part of Thy Kingdom Come, discussion of an LMA website)
Mission & Ministry: Mission and ministry was carried out primarily through the church communities centred on the 22 church buildings. The LMA Council intends to develop ways by which the LMA can enable a working together across churches particularly in the priority areas identified above.
Buildings: Under its standing orders buildings are managed by local church committees, with major matters of work and maintenance being brought to the LMA Council through faculty requests and through the system of regular reporting.
Insurance : All buildings, committee members and activities are insured with Ecclesiastical Insurance.
The architects for the Quinquennial inspections, (or used independently since then) are agreed by individual church committees with the Diocese.
The Independent Examiner for the financial accounts: Mr Bernie Scourfield of Lamphey
FINANCE & LMA Accounts for 2024
Roose LMA Council CIO standing orders state that each church committees presents its Annual Financial Accounts to members of the electoral roll as part of the Annual Pre-Vestry Meeting, but that leaves the electoral roll no way of seeing the annual accounts for funds which the LMA Council alone is responsible.

- “Roose Local Ministry Area Council CIO” (acc no. …860), set up to administer ministerial expenses, held at Lloyds Bank, signatories Cath Davies (treasurer & trustee), Alan Chadwick (LMA Dean & trustee), Peter Royle (LMA Ministers Expenses and Gift Aid Officer)
The finances of the Church of the Holy Spirit are administered by a sub-committee of the LMA Council, but it is not one of the church committees. The account is in the name of “The Church of the Holy Spirit”, held at Lloyds Bank, signatories Cath Davies (treasurer & trustee), Samuel Patterson (trustee), John Bramley (trustee) and Alan Chadwick (LMA Dean & trustee).

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF ROOSE LOCAL MINISTRY AREA COUNCIL CIO
-
1 I have examined the financial statements of the Roose Local Ministry
-
. Area Council CIO (Charity Number 1203513) for the financial year ended 31 December 2024.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner.
-
2 As the Charity’s trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of
-
. the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required this year (under Section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011(the 2011 Act). Instead an independent examination should be carried out.
-
3 It is my responsibility to:
-
.
-
Examine the accounts (under section 145 of the 2011 Act
-
To follow the procedure laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
.
-
To state whether particular matters have come to my attention
Basis of independent examiner’s report.
-
4 My examination was carried out in accordance with the Directions and
-
. Guidance Notes issued by the Charity Commissioners. 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 you as trustees concerning any such matters.
-
5 You are reminded that the procedures followed do not provide all the
-
. evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent examiner’s statement
-
6 The accounts have been prepared on an Income and Expenditure basis, . using the SORP accounting standard FRS 102 updated for smaller charities. Consequently, no cash flow statement has been provided.
-
7 Where I have sought explanations during the course of my examination;
1
-
. the Finance Officer (Cath. Davies) has given these to me, on your behalf. Explanations were of a relatively minor nature and have no influence on this report..
-
8 In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention
-
. 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or
-
-
which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
