What the accounts disclose
Reserves policy: reference both to identified building and maintenance requirements, and to the PCC’s experience (held: £132k)
“The level of the reserves is decided by reference both to identified building and maintenance requirements, and to the PCC’s experience. The level of reserves is reviewed annually.”
Per its FY2024 accounts as filed with the Charity Commission.
Going concern: noted by the trustees or auditor
“The PCC noted that continuing expenditure on church and hall maintenance would need to be carefully monitored to ensure that the parish could still meet and if possible increase payments to the Common Fund of the Diocese. The church is dependent on the rents received from the church hall. Now the hall is subject to a 15 year lease, we have greater income stability, but if one or more of the flats are left vacant for a significant period of time, or if the hall tenant fails, the church’s income would be severely affected.”
Per its FY2024 accounts as filed with the Charity Commission.
Related-party transaction: Donations from PCC members
“During the year £19,557 was received by way of donations from members of the PCC. No expenses have been paid to any member of the PCC except for clergy expenses disclosed in note 5.” — page 10
