Trustee Report of the William Gerrard Charity
Charity Number 262690
Address for correspondence: The Treasurer/Secretary Mrs Sheila Merrill 21, Tuckers Nook,
Maxey, Peterborough. Cambs PE6 9EH.
Trustees: Michael Charles Loveder – Chairman
Sheila Mary Merrill – Treasurer/Secretary
John William Hickling – Trustee
Background: The charity was set up in the late 15[th] century to support the fabric of the church of St Peter’s and to ensure that the building remains open for worship in the future.
As a Grade 1 listed building which is on the At Risk register it is a constant struggle to maintain the building, problems arise every year and without the support of this
charity, the church would have closed long ago. We have just provided almost £17000 to repair a large section of stone wall which was forced over by tree roots.
Just this month we have supported the repairs to the Tower roof which was leaking badly. Without our intervention, plus additional grant funding obtained by our Treasurer,
the bell frame would have been adversely affected, possibly leading to removal of the bells for repair of the wooden mounting beam. The charity provided over £17000 for
this work, grants totalling over £6000 completed the cost of the work at £23979.15.
The church is now in the process of obtaining tenders for the replacement of the lead covering to the South Aisle. The lowest tender at the moment is £41000 and this amount
is sure to rise when the underlying timbers are revealed. We are currently seeking grant aid for the work and the William Gerrard Charity has promised a minimum of £30000,
but we will pay for the work if no grants are forthcoming. Where does the money come from: The charity owns and rents land in the
area to local farmers and the rest of our income comes from investments. Activities and objectives: The sole function of the charity is to ensure that St Peter’s church, Maxey remains open for worship and the building remains useable for worship, weddings, baptisms
and funerals, or visits by the public. Teams of volunteers give their time to cleaning the church and maintaining the churchyard grounds. We as trustees are dedicated to ensuring that there will always be funds available to support the church in its much-needed repairs.
Financial Review: In the year to end 1 Jan 2024 our income was £24129. Our expenditure was £14320.
This year we have provided:
£2919.11 on 30/1025 for general running costs. £8374.99 on 3/3/25 as second payment for the wall repairs.
£1913.20 on 24/7/25 for general running costs.
£17248 on 20/8/25 for repairs to the bell tower. Our balance at the writing of this report is £161404.92. Future expenditure: The nave roof is in very poor condition. The original oak beams which date from the 16[th] century were attacked by Death Watch beetles. This has been treated but it has left many
beams in need of repair. Estimates for this work are over £250,000. Without large amounts of grant funding and the continuing careful management of the William Gerrard Charity
funds by its trustees the future of the church cannot be assured.
Michael Loveder – Chairman of the above charity. 21/8/2025.
