They assisted by a Parish Finance Committee who offer advice and support. In parishes. and in Dio¢esan organisations, the Charity relies on the generous support of a large number of volunteers who offer their time and skills freely. PUBLIC BENEFIT The celebration of Mass is ccntral to the Roman Catholic faith, and this is the main use of the 60 ChuTches operated by the charity. Whilst Sunday is the principal day of worship, maDy of our churches are open each day and are accessible to all. Evcry week the parish community comes togetheT to cclcbratc thc mystcry of our faith _ the death and resuTrection of Our Lord lesus Christ. People gather in prayer and praise of God. and to seek God's help and forgiven￿$. Anyone is welcome to attcnd service8, or just to take a moment in a sacred space for peace and stillness in order to pray and there is no qu¢$tion of any fee or charge. Wc also celebrate the sacraments. prIn￿￿]Y within each p￿Ish community. Many of these are liDked to the milestoncs in people's lives. Ai Baplism an individual becomes part of the body of ChTisL and part of the Church. From theiT FiTSt Comrnunion ihey are able to take part thIIy ill the Eucharist. Confirniation affirn]s them in their faith and nomjally takes place at adolcscence. In Marriage th¢ individual forms a covenant with thcir parther. The Anointing of the SICK and the Sacrament of ReconciliatLOll ar¢ the Iwo sacram¢nts of healing, and through Holy Orders ordination as a priest or d¢acon is conferred. The parish priests and clergy guide each parish community, under the authority of the Bishop, who is our sbepheTd and teacher. Many parish buildings ar¢ also used for $o¢ial events and activities that benefit the wider community. Through Dioccsan Agencies a wide range of services are supported by the Dio¢es¢. For example, the Diocesan Schools, Department assists the work of the Voluntary Aided Catholic, and Catholic Voluntary Academy, 8¢hools in the Diocese, through training, guidance and advice to headteachers and governors. Thts includes the development and monitoring of religious education, the Section 48 inspection of school8, advising on the appointment of seoior staff and succession planning, planning of school pla¢es and the maintenan¢e and provision of s¢hool buildings. The dq)artment works Closely with the four councils and two county councils that cover the Diocese and the Governors of Voluntary Aided Schools, and the Directors of the Academy Trusts. Through the Diocesan Schools, Building Fund, grants are made to Voluntary Aided governing bodies towards the capital cost of school buildings. Fach s¢hool is an exempt charity, and maintsined schools and Catholic Voluntsry Academies provide education free of charge. Nvhilst these schools are not part of the ch4rity, the Diocese plays a key role in supporting them and this bas an enonnous impact on all their pupils. regardless of whether or not they have any religious affiliation. Diocesan Org2nisations. such as St. Wilfrid's Centre, provide a turther opporMnity for the Church to Teach out to the wider community.

Remuneralion for kcy management personnel is set by the Salaries Sub-Committ¢¢, taking into Consideration th¢ n]arkel rates for sin)ilar roles and is pcriodically Teviewed in order to r¢¢ognise and reward outstanding pcrfornwice. RISK MANAGEMENT The Trnstee has overall responsibility for ensuring that the Charity has an appropriate system of wntrols, financia] and otherwise. The Audit Sub-cornmittee review, annually, the risks facing th¢ charitywbich can be categoris¢d into broad headings including (l) Safeguarding (2) Ageing Clergy (3) Education {4) Financial (5) Governance. Sofeguarding - Being loved and being kept safe go to the very core of the Church's ministy. The safeguarding of children and adults at risk is of paranioiint importance to the Diocese. Failing to prevent abuse of the vulnerable has s¢rious repercussions for the individual, the mission of the Church and th¢ Diocese. To mitigate this risk the Diocese follows the policies and procedures put in place by the Catholic Safeguarding Slandards Authority (CSSA) which are ¢nfor¢ed by tbe Safeguarding departtnenL The departtnent promotes a safe recruitment policy and provides training across th¢ dioc¢se to reinforce safeguarding procedures. They also reswnd to any allegation, past or present, of inappropriate behaviollr or actual abus¢ by any member or persoll working for the Charity, paid or unpaid, liaisillg with the police and other statutory authoritics. The Tmstee Safeguarding Cornmittee oversees the work of the Safeguarding department in this respect. Th¢ Dioc¢s¢ of Hallam is committed to the promotion of a "one Church approach" to the safeguarding of children and adults at risk and th¢ promotion of a culture of safeguarding througbout the Charity. Ageing Clergy - The number of clergy in the Diocese has dccreascd si￿]ficant1Y in Tec¢nt years, and the age profil¢ of those in active rninisty is rising. In additio￿ Ibe nunther of pricsts who have retired from active ministy is tn¢Msing. The structure of parishes in each Deanery is under review and a policy and strategy to provide support for ageing clergy. Edu¢2tion - The Charity contributes to the education provid¢d in th¢ 47 Voluntary Aided and Catholic Voluntary A¢adcmy Schools in the Diocese (40 Primary Schools, 6 Secondary, 13-16 School). One of the risks identified is the potcntial und¢rpcrforman¢¢ of diocesan schools. The Schools Department monitors the perforn]anc¢ of all schools and provides support whcre n¢c¢ssary. Overall, the number of schools judged by Ofsted as -Good" has increased. Schools thal are judged "Requtred Improvcmcnt" or are at Tisk of under p¢rforn]ance ￿ceIve support from other hools in the Di0¢￿¢ as well as from diocesan oificcrs and cimsultants. On behalf of the Bishop. the Schools Department ietsins ¢anoni¢al ov¢rsight of diocesan schools in maintaining Catholic ethos and undertakes the Section 48 Inspections. The Bishop has expressed his wish that in due course all ￿h0O1$ join one of the two diocesan Multi-Academy Trusts. The Diocesan Board of EducalioD meets regularly to help facilitate the Bishop's vision for the ttvo Catholic Multi academy t￿sts across the diocese. The Board meet to support the Bishop and the schools in a wide range of matters alld ¢ompriscs of The Bishop, Episcopal Vicar for Schools. officers of the Schools, Department and the Director of Finance. The CEOS of St Clarc's and St Francis CMATS are in attendance as non-voting member8.

Page 9 DIOCESE OF HALLAM IRoman Cathollc Dfioc￿e of Hallam Trust) ANNUAL REPORT (Continued) Year Ended 31st December 2023 Fin4n¢ial - Altbough the flllmcial position of the Charity is stable, fllwicing the cU￿ent level of expenditure is an identified risk at a time when income from investments (e.g. interest) is limited and there is pr¢ssure on voluntary donations (in the fonn of Parish Offertories due to the cost of living Crisis). In comrnon with most other Catholi¢ dioc¢s¢s in England & Wales, Mass attendance has fallen ovcr time. In light of this, expenditur¢ continues to be r¢viewcd, particularly in ternis of Parish Property Rq)airs. Governance - As with other dioceses, the strncture of the dioco8¢ is such that Ihe administration of parishes (in civil law) is undertaken by parish priests under the delegated authority of th¢ Trustee. Their activities, however. Temain th¢ responsibility of the Trustee. Systems and Controls are in place to monitor these activities, particularly in relation to statutory and regulatory compliance incEuding Employment, Safeguarding. Health & Saf¢ty, Propety Maintenance and Financ¢. CONNECTED CHARITIES The Di￿¢$¢ encompasses 47 Catholic schools.

Judgements and key sour¢e% of estin)ation uncertafinty The preparation of financial statements requires the Tn￿tee to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect Ibe application of policies and ryorted amounts of assets 2nd liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical exp¢rien¢¢ and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the ciwumstan¢¢s, The actual outcome may diverge from these estimates if other as8umption$ ￿¢ made, or otber condition5 arise. Significantjudgemexts In the course of preparing the financial ststements, tbe following significant judgements have been made in the process of applying the charity's accowititig poli¢i¢s:_ assessing the probability of the receipt of legacy income. assessing the appropriatcness of the assumptions and methodology used in detennining the fair value of investment properties,. detenDining the value of the designated fimds needed at the year end to meet specific fvture expenditutt: Key sources ofu¢ima(ion untertointy A¢¢ounting estimates and assumptions are made concerning the filtute and by their nature, will rarely equal the related actual outconje, The charity does not bave any key assumptions concerning the future, or other key 50UTces of estimation uncertainty in the reporting period that may have a significant risk of causing a mataial adjustment to the Ca￿]llg amounts of assets and liabilities within the next fin2n¢ial year. Nottvithstanding this, the charity is required to make estimates as detailed below: estimating the accrued expenditure including employees. accrned holiday pay" estimating the useful ¢¢onomic life of tangible fixed assets to detennine a depreciation charge; estimating the Cost of the fiInction￿ r￿ed assets, including propety. that were held at 31" December 1996. As8￿$￿tTht of Golng ConcerD The Trustee consideTr that there are no material uncertainties about the tn￿t'S ability to ¢ontinue as a going concern. In¢ome All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to incorne, it is probable tbat the income will be received and the amount of the income receivable can be measured reliably. Donations Donations arc recognised when the charity has been notified in wtiting of both the amount and settlement dale. tn the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of perf0M￿]Ce by the Charity befor¢ the charity is entitled to the fimds, the income is defrrred and not recognised until either those conditions aff fully meL or the thlfilment of Ihose conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it 18 probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting peLlOd. Grants r¢ceiv41bl¢ Grants are recognised when the charity h&$ an entitlement to the thnds and any conditions linked to the grants have be¢n met. Where perforn)ance conditions are attached to the grattt and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the Balan¢¢ Sheet as deferred income to be released.

Q Curia transactions concerning the Diocese as a whole. The Funds of the charity are analysed into Restricted and U]Jrc5trictcd Fulli&. Reslricied Funds represent arnounts rcccivcd for a specified pwpose which had not be¢n expended at the Balance Sheet date. P8ri5h property subject to a Special Tn]st is also reflected in th¢ Restricted Fund balanccs. Unrestricted Funds represent amounts available for the general purposes of the ¢harity. Within Unrestricted Funds. Designated Funds reflect the amounts S¢t-a5ide for particular projects or purpos¢s, but which may be spent for other general charilable purposes. The Ststemellt of Financial Activities details Parish and Curial incoming resources and resources expended, analysed between Unrestricted and Restricted Funds. Parish Income is. under Canon Law, under the ¢ontrol and direction of the P￿iSh Priest who exercises his ministy under the authority of the Bi8hop. Although the Finance Board of Diocese of Hallarn Trustee has ultimats responsibility under civil law for these fimds, the juridical peison who holds Parish Funds is the Parish Priest, and these funds are unrestri¢tcd only in ternis of their use wiihin the individual parish. 2.3 Tangible Fixed Assets Freehold and Leasehold Land Bulldlll (a) Funedonal Land and Bulldlngs Chur¢bes. PTesb les Church Halls. Offices etc. Freehold Land Functional Land. {i.e. land used for the prime purpose of the Charity), is included in the financial ststernents al original cosL or where this is not availabl¢ at an estimate of its historic cost (or in the casc of donated land or land acquiTed at nil cos¢ at its fair value at the date of receipt). Freehold land is Dot depreciated because it has an ind¢finilely long u5cful life. xi) Freehold Buildings Functional Buildings (i.e. buildings used for the prime purpose of the Charity), which arc 5ti11 in use by the ChaTity are includcd in the financial slatements at original cosL or in the case of buildings transfe￿ed at nil cost on the forniation of the Diocese, at an estimate of their fair value at the date of acquisition. All new functii)nal buildings, improvements and major renovations are capitalised at the c05t of conslTuction. Buildings which were in use al 315t December 1996, and additions since that date. aTe depreciated at ratcs ca]culated to write off tbeir estimated hisloric rost (les5 th¢ ¢stimat¢d ￿SidUal value) evenly over the whol¢ of their llsefi￿ life. The estimate of th¢ useful life of 8 building vaTies depending on the condition and future use of the building. However, in generdl it is expected that a building in a reasonable stste of repair will continue in usc without major renovations or improv¢ments for the following period.. (a) Unlisted Chur¢h¢s 25 to 100 years Ib) Cathedral and Listed Chur¢hes 100 to 200 years (c} Presbyteries 25 to 50 years (d} Other buildings 10 to 75 years Depre¢i4tion rates are caloulated using the age of the building and its expected useful life.

Page 20 DIOCESE OF HALLAM IRoman Catholic Dlocese of Hallam Trnst) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Year Ended 318t Decelnber 2023 Padley Martyrs ChapeL Grtndleford, Derbyshire is not depreciated because it was built c.1400, is a Grade I listed building and is considered to have an extraordinary long life that cannotbe detennined. The charity does not recognise this heritsg¢ asset in its BalAn¢e Sheet as detsils of its cost and initial valuation aTe not held, given the nathre of the asset and its longevity. The ¢ost of obtaining a value is not commensurate with any benefit to the users of the ac¢oullts and given the religious nathre of the asset it is extremely unlikely that the monetary value (from sale) will ever be recognised by the charity. The cost of obtaining a valuation has been Considered by the ¢harity and it believes it is not justified by the usefulness of th¢ infomiation to the users of the accounts. iii) Leafehold Land andBuildings Leasehold land and buildings aTr depre¢iated over the life of the Icase on a straight-line basis. Details and addresses of the Dlocesan churches and other buildings (both freehold and leasehold) can be found in the Diocesan Year Book Volun Aided Schools & Catholic Volunta Academies The ¢harity owns the land on which its Voluntary Aided Schools are built, and the land oc¢upi¢d by Caiholic Voluntsry Academy Trusts and Catholic Multi Academy Trusts. Each Trustlschool is att exempt charity under the Charities Act 2011 and 0￿￿pIeS the 18nd rent-free. The nature of the occupation of the land by these exenipt charities means that the Diocese's TNslee does not have the power to dispose of the land until the school Ceoses its occupation, wbi¢h in lum would require the approval of the DirectorslGovernors 2nd the Secretary of State and may involve the recovery of grant- aid by the DtE. Consequenty such knid is not in direct use by tbe ¢baTity, does not generate any iti¢ome, cannot be disposed of on the open market, and Cannot be used for any other purpose during the s¢hools' occupation. In view of these restri¢tions, the Trustee believes the re¢overabl¢ amount of these assets is nil and they are included at nil valuation. ii) Buildings The School buildings are occupied, inwroved, extended and repaired by the School GovernorslAcademy Trusts. The natyre of the o¢¢upatioD of the buildings by these exempt charities means that the Diocese's Trustee does not have the power to dispose of the buildings until the school ceases its occupation, whtch in turn would require the approval of the Governors and the Secretsry of State and may involv¢ the recovery of grant-aid by the DtE. Consequently such buildings are not in direct use by the charity, do not generate any income, ¢aDnOt be disposed of on the open market, and cannot be used for any other purpose during the schools. occupation. In vtew of these restrictions, the Twstee believes the recovernble amount of these assets is nil and they 8T¢ included at nil valuation. The School Governors/A¢ademy TNst5 account for the building, improvement and repair costs of the schools and a¢wunt for any grdnts received in respect of these costs. Grants made by the Diocese tluough the Diocesan Schools, Building Fund (OT occasionally via parishes) to the Governors of Voluntary Aided S¢bools in order to assist them with their Iiabi]ity for school building costs are charged to the Ststement of Financial Activities in the year of payment. As at 31" December 2023 there were 28 Catholic Voluntary Academies (5 High Schools and 23 Primary schools), together with 15 Voluntary Aided Catholi¢ Prinw Schools.

Investment Pro erties Investment properties are shown at the Trn$tee's best estintste of market value. The majority of the Investment Properties were professionally valued as at 31" December 2022 and all are valued professionally at least every five years. The Investment Properties are spread a¢ros$ the Dioces¢. and consequently Ihe revaluation was carried ou( principally by Comrnercial Property Rotherham Ltd with other local valuers being used for some investment properties. The Finance Board of Dio¢¢se of Hallam Trustee annually reassesses the value of the investment propety Portfolio. Any change in value during the year is reported in the -Oiher Recognised G47inS & Losses" section of the Statement of Financial Activities. Further details of the basis of the valuation are given in note 13 to these financial StateM￿lS. Investment Properties are reflected at markel value, therefore no clwge for depreciation is rnade in the financial statements in accordance with accounting standaTds.
