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.

We've seen lots of amazing work in the visitor services department so far this year. SMR stewards have generated over £4,500 donations between January and April 2026 and welcomed over 5000 visitors to the Church. We are welcoming new tour guides to the front of house team with the eventual goal to expand the number of tours we are able to offer to the public. Janet and Reuben have both done their first tours and have received wonderful reviews from visitors. If you are interested in volunteering on the front of house team please contact me on lucy.marshall@stmaryredcliffe.co.uk . We have had some amazing feedback from our outreach events as we aim to welcome not only those familiar with SMR but also those that have never been before. These have included film screenings, talks and most recently the Redcliffe Sessions which raised just under £150 for our Lent charity partner, CALM. Thank you to all those who have supported these. The next Redcliffe Session will be in support of SMR and will feature Bristol band Dogsbody on guitar, cello and violin, and songwriter, Alex Pester on 13th June. I am very excited looking into the rest of 2026 for our future events run both in house and by external hirers, more information of which can be found on our website. If you are interested in volunteering at any future SMR events please let me know! Lucy Marshall Visitor Services Coordinator 06.05.2026
