TRUSTEES' REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019

The trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2019.

Structure, governance and management St. John's church is based at the Parish Centre, 21, Housley Park, Chapeltown, Sheffield. Due to the legal closure of its building in 2003, the congregation meets for worship both at the Parish Centre and at the Newton Hall on Cowley Lane in Chapeltown. St. John's is part of the Diocese of Sheffield within the .

The PCC has enjoyed charitable status since 23 September 2009 (Charity number 1131768).

The PCC has up-to-date policies which are regularly reviewed: a Safeguarding Children Policy, covering all issues relating to the safeguarding children and young people, a Vulnerable Adults Policy, a Health & Safety Policy (all updated and approved in July 2018) and a Domestic Abuse Policy (approved in November 2019).

The trustees who served during the year were:

Rev Richard Stordy (Chairman) Rev David Whitehead Curate Mr Sam Bacon from April 2019 Mr Stephen Battey Mrs Georgina Battey Mrs Ann Boldock Mr Steve Brook (Treasurer) Mrs Sylvia Charles Miss Ruth Gardiner from April 2019 Mr Tony Gardiner Mrs Ruth Langan Mr Michal Lipka Mrs Barbara Rodgers Mr Paul Ruddlesdin Mr Paul Smith from April 2019 Mrs Pat Smith to April 2019 Mr Ian Watson Mr Fred Winks Mrs Judith Winks

The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. All church attendees are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and to stand for election to the PCC.

New trustees are welcomed and receive training in their duties and responsibilities at their first PCC meeting after the Annual Parochial Church Meeting each year. They also receive a leaflet published by the Diocese of Sheffield on the responsibilities of Trustees. At each PCC meeting any further questions or issues are dealt with as they arise.

PCC member who served during the year and are not trustees of the charity was Mr Carl Brooks- Plunkett (Youth & Families Minister).

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

In planning our activities for the year we kept in mind at our trustee meetings the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.

4 The activities of our church provide tangible benefits to many in our community, and in particular by 1. The provision of weekly public worship open to all. 2. Pastoral work, including visits to the bereaved and the sick. 3. Teaching of the Christian faith through sermons, courses, special events and our cell groups. 4. Taking of religious assemblies in schools. 5. The provision of a youth group in a locality which has no other significant youth work of any kind. 6. Supporting other charities in the UK and overseas.

Objectives and activities St. John's PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent, Revd. Rick Stordy, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church: pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical, in accordance with the Church's vision statement:

St. John’s is a church here for God, here for you, aiming to grow UP towards God, IN with each other and, OUT to others

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

The PCC has maintenance responsibilities for the Parish Centre, which is used for a weekly communion service on a Sunday morning, a midweek communion on the first Wednesday of each month, the Rooted and Element youth groups, the Bumps & Babies and St. John’s Tots groups and Wednesday Friends who use the Parish Centre each week and contribute to the Parish Centre income. There are also a number of occasional or less regular users, including the Autism Hope group and the Nigerian Anglican Church who meet at the Parish Centre on Sunday mornings, after our 8am Communion.

Achievements and performance The full PCC met 6 times during the year with an average attendance rate of 74%. The Standing Committee (Development Team) met between meetings, and their deliberations were received by the full PCC where necessary.

Electoral Roll & Sunday worship There was a decrease on the Electoral Roll from 149 down to 130, of whom 33 are non-residents in the parish. This is quite normal for a year when there is a new Electoral Roll, and represents those who have moved away or died in the last few years.

Average Sunday attendance showed a healthy increase: it was 109 (94 adults and 13 children), overall 9 more than 2018. Obviously this number was very much greater at Christmas, Easter and on Remembrance Sunday. We were delighted to welcome new regular members throughout the year – a total of 8 new adults and 11 new children. Our Sunday Club has 11 regular children 11 years old or under, and 11 young people are part of Rooted Sundays (11-16 years old).

An indication of congregational size used by the Church of England, which counts those who attend church reasonably regularly – the ‘worshipping community’ – offers another measure of those who call themselves ‘regulars’ at St. John’s. It includes young people and families who regularly attend our midweek activities. That figure stands at 224, which includes 74 children and young people, down a little on last year. The overall picture is that St. John’s saw some encouraging growth in 2019.

Our worship was led by a team of clergy, Youth & Families minister and readers, and our music group, all of whom give of their time and skills with great generosity. Our childrens' groups: crèche, Sunday Club and Kidz Klub, meet three Sundays out of four and are led by a team of committed adult volunteers, who selflessly give of their time and gifts.

Christian teaching and learning The heart of our spiritual diet is Sunday morning preaching. This year saw several sermon series:

5 • This Changes Everything, concluding our series in Paul’s letter to the Romans (Chapters 8- 16); • HAPPY: exploring the shape of joy, in which we spent some good time in the Beatitudes from Matthew 5 (May-July); • Wings of Refuge a short summer series on the wonderful book of Ruth (July-August); • a series on Maturity: signs of a healthy church in September; and • we ended the year with an inspiring – if stretching! – series on Revelation: visions of reality.

All these are available online on our website and this resource is regularly used by those who miss any particular Sunday.

As a supplement to this, our Lent course, Dangers, toils and snares was held on Tuesday evenings with a variety of speakers, both our own and guests. It explored some of the hard places of Christian discipleship, and clearly touched a nerve, being attended by around 50 people a week.

For leaders and those considering leadership, this year’s Chapeltown Leadership Conference saw Joy French of St. John’s sharing some very inspiring reflections on Leading Like Jesus.

Cell groups Alongside weekly Sunday worship, our cell groups continued to be the other side of the coin in our core activities. At year’s end, there were 80 people involved in these, meeting in 9 groups. The groups meet weekly, at different venues, times and days of the week, with a threefold aim:

1. To build up Christian disciples 2. To develop new leaders 3. To reach out in evangelistic witness

In a congregational survey we conducted in June, it was striking how often Cells were mentioned as a place of real spiritual life and support.

One-to one discipleship We continue to encourage each other to form intentional one-to-one partnerships, centering on friendship, Bible reading and prayer. The goal is to help each other grow in love for Christ and in confidence in sharing the gospel. This was resourced in October with a ‘Refreshing One To Ones’ evening with ideas for starting and developing these partnerships. Many find 1-2-1s a real resource, but we are still only beginning to see how to develop these with those who are not yet Christians.

Pastoral care Our vicar, retired clergy and licensed Pastoral Worker visit members of the congregation and wider parish regularly. Over the year, the clergy visited the bereaved and conducted 21 funerals, 7 more than in 2018. This was partly due to our vicar covering funerals at High Green, which is now permanently without a vicar. Our vicar and a small team of loyal volunteers also conduct a monthly service in one of the care homes in the Parish, which is well-received and attracting healthy numbers.

Mothers' Union We have a committed and active Mothers' Union group, which promotes and supports family life. The group has 32 members (and 3 ‘Friends of MU’), and holds monthly meetings, both during the daytime and in an evening. Members visited the sick and the housebound; helped at the annual Memorial Service for the bereaved; and sent cards and gifts to baptism families.

Witness We offered the community a range of opportunities to discover the Christian faith and to see a Christian community in action by:

1. Our Real Lives events twice a year – ‘quality events from the churches of Chapeltown for the people of Chapeltown’. These feature a real life story of how Christ has impacted someone’s life. We had only one event this year, in October: The Parent, with Dave Luck, who shared the powerful and moving story of how he and his wife had coped with the loss of their son, Ben, to a brain tumour. It drew quite a crowd and affected many.

6 2. Regular enquirers’ groups: the year began with a dozen people on the Christianity Explored course (more than for some years). It included some as part of the leadership team for the first time, and saw at least one person come to faith.

3. Work with young families: Bumps ‘n’ Babies and Tots reach 40+ children and their families, offering practical friendship and Christian witness. We have had limited further contact with these families, as well as those we meet through Baptism ministry – with special events like Who Let The Dads Out the weekend of Mothering Sunday.

4. Running popular social occasions, like the Narnia-themed Youth Fundraiser in March, the Parish Quiz in March, and several men’s curry evenings. An exciting new development among our younger men was the launch of a Wednesday night football evening, which now attracts up to 30.

5. Putting on popular events at the high points of the Christian year, for instance: the Good Friday Open Air witness; and at Christmas time, the Carols in the Garden and the Carols in the Pub at Wetherspoons. This year an additional highlight for the whole community was an Adult Nativity procession that travelled from the Methodist Church via various pubs (where of course there was ‘no room’!) before ending up at the Memorial Garden next to the Newton Hall.

Youth work The youth work has gone through a number of changes for Carl and our team of volunteer leaders. We were sorry to say goodbye to Kirsty Dronfield in July, and were grateful for all her support of Carl and work with our young people.

Numbers at Element have grown to up to 12 regulars, many of whom have no other link with church. Rooted, our group for younger teenagers has 12 or so regulars. D:Group saw a small increase, up to 7 young people meeting for regular Bible study and discipleship each Sunday evening. We now take our teenagers away twice a year: the younger ones to the Oakes Christian Centre in May; and the older ones to the CYFA Venture at Sedbergh in August – these are significant times for the spiritual growth of our young people and are subsidised by the funds raised at the annual youth fundraiser.

The youth work enjoys strong and practical support from the whole congregation, both at fundraiser meal and through our volunteer team of leaders who give their time and care week by week – without them it simply would not happen.

We thank God that for a second year we are now funding our youth & families minister’s salary ourselves, though as will appear in the figures below, this is challenging us to keep increasing our giving. The PCC discussed this during the year as part of refreshing our vision strategy, and is in no doubt that this employed post is not only a huge blessing to the youth of our church and community, but a significant factor in the growing number of new families that have joined us in the last few years. It remains a key priority for us.

Our youth ministry will face more changes in 2020: in 2019, with our full support and to our delight, Carl Brooks-Plunkett was recommended for ordination training to start in September 2020. We are so pleased both for him and for the wider church who will benefit from his ministry, but very sad to know that he will be leaving us in the summer. We will greatly miss him; he goes with our best wishes and prayers. We are currently in the process of appointing a successor.

Schools work The vicar and youth & families minister and a number of volunteers visited all the local infant and junior schools regularly for assemblies and RE lessons. We also helped with RE lessons at School and with their ‘Faith Club’.

Charitable giving A total of £1,025.56 (not included in the accounts) was given to various charities, including the Leprosy Mission, Disasters Emergency Committee, SAT7 and Royal British Legion.

7 Achievements and performance The full PCC met 6 times during the year with an average attendance rate of 70%. The Standing Committee (Development Team) met between meetings, and their deliberations were received by the full PCC where necessary.

Charitable giving A total of £1,819 (not included in the accounts) was given to various charities, including the Leprosy Mission, Flood Assistance, Acorn Camps and the Royal British Legion.

Financial review Total receipts were £126,757 of which £117,893 was the main giving from the congregation (planned giving, collections and one-off giving). Giving to the General Fund was down by £1,340 compared with the previous year. Regular giving by the congregation to the restricted Youth Worker fund was £ 3,235 less than in 2018. So overall regular giving by the congregation decreased by £4,575. This was a result of existing members reducing their giving (especially those who had retired from full-time employment), and some members moving away in 2019.

Of the expenditure £82,680 represents unrestricted (general) funds. The Church opened a savings account in 2014 in order to achieve interest on the funds in the Youth Worker restricted account. However in 2019 this account was not used owing to reduced funds and the very small interest payable.

The Parish Centre continues to have some spare capacity, that would benefit from regular bookings, , there have been a number of donations but this was not sufficient to cover expenditure. Whilst expenditure was tightly controlled in 2019, there was a loss of £5,055 (including depreciation of £2,681).

A review of the structure of the Parish Centre in 2019 highlighted the need for a number of repairs and as a result of this a Gift Day was held in June 2019 which raised £9,181 which was placed in a restricted fund ‘PC-Hidden Gem’. Of this £2,801 was spent in 2019 and £4,600 is planned to be spent on repointing in the spring 2020

In considering the accounts the General Fund and Parish Centre Fund need to be considered together.

£14,839 was transferred from the General Fund to the restricted Youth Worker Fund and Youth Intern Fund to cover the cost deficits in these restricted funds. There was an insurance claim as a result of tree damage to the Parish Centre garden wall and costs of £770 covered the removal of the tree and repair to the wall.

After discussion with the Independent Examiner for 2018 it was agreed that in 2019 the income and expenditure for the Church weekend away which occurs every two years should be included in the accounts as a restricted fund. At the end of 2019 after paying the deposit a sum of £2,482 remained in this fund towards the cost in 2020.

£58,930 was paid towards the Diocesan Common Fund, which largely provides stipends, housing for the clergy and all central support of the parish and its clergy (e.g. Church House and the various Diocesan departments like the Parish Support Team). This was a decrease of £3,822 from 2018. The Parish remains committed to paying its full contribution in terms of supporting ordained ministry across our region, and this is a good contribution for a church of our size in a community such as ours. However in 2019 this was the first year that we were unable to fully meet this commitment owing to lack of funds.

The net result for the year was a credit of £1,490 (including depreciation of £2,681) which included a deficit of £1,958 on general funds. This means that the total balance carried forward at 31st December 2019 was £200,189 of which a credit of £7,619 is the general fund and £8,963 is in restricted funds.

8 Staffing Carl Brooks-Plunkett, Youth & Families minister has been in post since September 2016. A youth intern, Kirsty Dronfield, was appointed in September 2018 to assist Carl. The church paid her expenses relating to her activity for the church, but she was self-funding for all other living expenses. Kirsty completed her year with us in August 2019 and Fiona Battey has worked an additional 2 hours per week to assist Carl from September. As part of the Government’s Automatic enrolment of staff into a pensions scheme the Church joined the Church Workers Pension Fund Pension Builder 2014 in September 2016. All members of staff were offered the option of joining and 1 member of staff was auto-enrolled onto this scheme.

Reserves policy The PCC reserves are surpluses retained for the operation of the charity. Part of this is held in the Ministry Development Fund for future developments in ministry and its use is at the discretion of the PCC.

Restricted reserves are to be carried forward as they represent monies received in advance of expenditure for restricted purposes.

Future plans During the year the PCC reviewed and refreshed our ‘Vision 2020’ strategy. This followed a process of listening to feedback from the congregation, an Awayday in July and further prayer and reflection. As a result, we have highlighted five main areas for attention in the next three years or so:

These goals will not only keep furthering the gospel in Chapeltown and more widely in our families and workplaces (as we grow in developing disciples), but also enable us to move towards a situation where we can offer increasing support to our neighbouring parish of High Green, which will not have a vicar in future (as we grow new leaders). The aim is (a) to release some of our vicar’s time so he can offer increased oversight there, and (b) to develop and equip new leadership within our own congregation. In God’s providence, we pray this will enable us to show good support to others as well as helping us mature as a congregation. That isn’t to underestimate that these are major challenges,

9 and that we are being stretched in taking the risks of faith. But it isn’t just a question of our own human resources. We take heart that we have a God ‘who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine’ (Ephesians 3:20). So he has always been; so he will be!

It is my responsibility to: i. examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; ii. follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and iii. state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner's report My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission.

Independent examiner's statement In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: (a) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:

(i) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and (ii) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act: have not been met; or

Chapeltown St John PCC participates in the Pension Builder Scheme section of CWPF for lay staff. The Scheme is administered by the Church of England Pensions Board, which holds the assets of the schemes separately from this of the Employer and other participating Employers. The Church Workers Pension Fund

has a section known as Pension Builder Classic and a cash balance section known as Pension Builder 2014 The Scheme is considered to be a multi-employer scheme as described in Section 28 of FRS 102. This is because it is not possible to attribute the Pension Builder Scheme’s assets and liabilities to specific employers and that contributions are accounted for as if the scheme were a defined contribution scheme.

The pension costs charged to the SOFA in the year are contributions payable (2019:£1,958: 2018 £1914) A valuation of the Scheme is carried out once every three years. The most recent scheme valuation completed was carried out as at 31 Dec 2016. This revealed on the ongoing assumptions used a deficit of £14.2m.There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time. Pension Builder 2014 will be valued in relation to the lump sum payable to members at normal pension age.
