Independent examiner :

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE WORDSLEY TEAM PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL
I report to the members of the Wordsley Team Parochial Church Council (PCC) on my examination of the accounts for the year ended 31° December 2021.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the members of the PCC you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). You consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the 2011 Act, and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
e Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; e Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
e 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 Charities Commission.
An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the PCC and a comparison of those accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration ofany unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the PCC concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in a full audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
Independent examiner’s statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matter have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
Accounting records were not kept in respect of the activities of the Church as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
The accounts do not accord with those records.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

WORDSLEY PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 315T DECEMBER 2021
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
General
In accordance with the Charities Act 2011 and the Church Accounting Regulations, together with applicable accounting standards, the Financial Statements for the year ended 31° December 2021 have been prepared on the accrual basis.
FUNDS
General funds represent the funds of the PCC that are not subject to any restrictions on their use, and are available for application on the general purposes of the PCC. Other funds which have been designated for a particular purpose by the PCC are also unrestricted.
Restricted and Endowment funds are funds that must be applied for a particular purpose that has been designated by an authority, or application of law other than the PCC.

Funds raised by Special Fund Raising events are accounted for gross.

WORDSLEY PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 315T DECEMBER 2021
RESOURCES USED
Activities directly relating to the work of the Church The Diocesan Quota is shown in the accounts is the amount paid relating to the accounting year 2021. The actual sum assessed by Worcester Diocese for that year was £75,128. In past years provision has been made on the basis that the shortfall would be met at some point in the future. However, with the current economic situation, following on from the effects ofCovid-19 on the activities of the Church, it is the opinion that no such provision can be made as there is not a realistic expectation that this shortfall can be met in the foreseeable future.
The shortfall in the Diocesan Quota for 2018 and 2019 continue to be accrued as a liability for the time being.
FIXED ASSETS
Consecrated Land and Buildings Consecrated and beneficed property is excluded from the Accounts by the Charities Act 2011.
Moveable Charch Furnishings No value is placed on Moveable Church Furnishings held by the Churchwardens on a special trust for the PCC, and, which require a faculty for their disposal, as the PCC consider this to be inalienable property.
All expenditure incurred during the year on Consecrated or Benefice Buildings, and Moveable Church Furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement, are written off as expenditure in the Statement of Financial Activities and separately disclosed.
Investments Investments are shown at their Market Value at the 31% December 2021.
CURRENT ASSETS
Amounts due to the PCC at 31% December 2021 in respect of outstanding fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors, less any provision for amounts that may prove uncollectable. Short term deposits include cash held on deposit either with the CBF Church of England Funds or at the bank.
CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
No contingent liabilities have been provided for at the year end.
