Annual Parochial Church Meeting 2020 - Results & Information

This year's Annual Meeting was held on Monday 5 October at 7:30pm and was attended by over 50 people which is about a dozen or so fewer than we would normally expect. Given the current circumstances, and that the meeting was held on Zoom, we felt that the meeting was very well attended.


At the Annual Meeting of Parishioners Elizabeth Shanahan and Richard Wallace were elected as Wardens for a further year.


Then at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting:

- SMR's Electoral Roll was reported as being 286 (up from 272) with 42 resident in the parish

- Eleanor Vousden, Janet Hagan and Richard Dyton were elected to the Deanery Synod

- Adam Lloyd, Eleanor Vousden, Esther Keller, Hayden Shackell and Liz Hewitt were elected to the PCC


Congratulations to all those elected to serve this wonderful church and amazing parish.


Our thanks go to Becky James, Bea Purser-Hallard and Greca Warr for the time they sat on Deanery Synod and to them and Christine Bush, Ruth Jones and Sarah King for their contribution to the work of the PCC over the last three years.

As the new season begins, it feels full of potential as new life appears around us and the days grow longer. Spring brings a natural sense of renewal, and it feels like a particularly special time in the life of our church. I’m delighted that our building will be hosting several events that explore the story and meaning of Easter in different ways. One highlight will be hosting Riding Lights Theatre Company presenting Night Falls, a new Passion play by Paul Birch, offering a powerful retelling of the Easter story. We hope it will be meaningful for both members of our congregation and visitors who join us. We are also looking forward to a screening from the Exhibition on Screen series exploring Easter in Art, reflecting on how artists across the centuries have interpreted the Passion and Resurrection. Our church shop continues to welcome visitors and regulars alike. Alongside cards, books, and gifts, I’m pleased to share that we have recently brought a new book supplier on board, helping us widen our range of titles for both children and adults exploring faith and the heritage of the church. I’ve also been delighted to help recruit several new volunteers to help run church tours, and we hope this will allow us to expand our tour offer and share the story of the church with even more visitors. If you see them in the church please help welcome them to the team. Behind the scenes, we continue working to welcome concerts and other events into the church. Our beautiful space lends itself wonderfully to music, and these events not only bring people together but also help support the care and future of the building. Over the coming months, we look forward to hosting a range of concerts and cultural events, welcoming audiences from across the local area and beyond. If you know of choirs, ensembles, or promoters looking for a distinctive venue, please do point them in our direction. Thank you to everyone who supports these activities by volunteering, attending events, shopping in the shop, or spreading the word. Recca Horry , Commercial Manager 13.03.2026
