Promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical.
Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts
The accounts state that the charity operated on fine margins, with an overall excess driven by unexpected legacy and insurance income rather than core trading performance. The trustees note that general funds income is down by 8.5% compared to the previous year and warn that unless income increases, designated funds will likely need to be used to meet day-to-day running costs in 2025. Despite these pressures, the free reserves of £29,256 are reported as sufficient to meet the stated policy target of three months' average unrestricted running costs.
