THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF THE ECCLESIASTICAL PARISH OF ST JOHN THE BAPTIST, TIDESWELL

Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the Benefice held its own financially over the year, with Cressbrook achieving a stable position due to a significant bequest. However, the document notes that Tideswell faces potential future cost increases for gas contracts once heating is restored, and Litton experienced a decline in available funds due to lower fundraising receipts. The PCC considers an independent examination sufficient, indicating no immediate financial distress requiring an audit.
