Governance

Any organisation needs to have a mechanism to oversee its decisions and finances and the church is no exception. In order to do this effectively within the Parish, the APCM (Annual Parochial Church Meeting) and Meeting for the Election of Churchwardens are held annually at the same time, normally before April 30th.

The latest annual report and accounts can be found below together with a transcription of the verbal Rector’s report.

The PCC, chaired by the Team Rector, is a group of people made up of members of the clergy and lay members of the parish some of whom sit on the Council as of right and some who are elected at the APCM. Together they are responsible for promoting the mission of the church. They also have responsibility for the overall wellbeing, spiritual and practical, as well as financial, of their parish, the members and the buildings. The PCC meets regularly to discuss matters of general concern and importance to the Parish. The Parish is a registered charity and PCC members are Trustees (Registered Charity No. 1130415).

There is a summary of PCC minutes in the Welwyn Magazine.
