Vision Night and Annual Church Meeting

Join us for an evening of inspiration and vision at our Annual Meeting and Vision Night!  On Wednesday 22 April 2026 at 7.30pm, we’ll be gathering in St Michael’s Centre Auditorium.

Throughout the evening we will be looking forward at our vision, values and strategy. 

And we’ll also complete our formal Church of England annual meeting requirements as the PCC.

What is the PCC?

The PCC (Parochial Church Council) is the governing body of St Michael’s overseeing our ministry and mission. It is responsible for ensuring compliance with policies, proper recruitment and staff management. The PCC is required to hold an APCM (Annual Parochial Church Meeting) where reports are shared, accounts approved, and new members and officers are elected. Anyone can come to the annual meeting; only those on the electoral roll can vote.

Do I need to book to come?

You can just turn up, but it would aid us in planning if you could register in advance. Please click here

Serve on PCC

The PCC (Parochial Church Council) is made up of Clergy, Church Wardens, members of the Deanery and Diocesan Synods and a number of elected members. Being a member of the PCC means you are part of decision making, and carries some legal responsibilities. PCC members are considered ‘trustees’ by the Charity Commission.  To stand for election to the PCC you must be 16 or over, on the church Electoral Roll, regularly take communion, and be legally allowed to be a Charity Trustee.

At the meeting on Wednesday 22 April we will be electing new members. If you have an interest in standing, please contact the PCC Secretary via the church office or speak with Simon.

Annual Meeting Documents

In line with our commitment to being more eco-friendly, we will not be printing multiple copies of the meeting documents.  Please download in advance or bring a device with you that you can access the internet on.  Printed copies will be available on request in advance. – please sign-up to request them.

Join the St Michael’s Electoral Roll

At St Michael’s we want to live to make a difference, by being a Christian heart at the centre of our communities.  We would love you to be part of our Church family and join in.  If St Michael’s is your home church we would encourage you to join the electoral roll.

What is the Electoral Roll?

In the Church of England, it is a parish’s register of electors; it is the list of those qualified to vote at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting (APCM) where the elections take place for the Parochial Church Council (PCC), and the parish’s representatives on the Deanery Synod.

The Electoral Roll is also our membership list, the number we can count upon as committed members of St Michael’s

Every year we have a revision, and give people the opportunity to join if they haven’t already.

Every sixth year, instead of a revision, a completely new Roll has to be prepared. We did this last year in 2025. The next time this happens will be in 2032.

Who can join the Electoral Roll?

If you live in the parish or have worshiped regularly with us over the last six months, have been baptised and are 16 years or over, you can join.

How do I join the Electoral Roll?

You can join the electoral roll online by filling in the form below.
Alternatively, you can complete a paper form and return it to the church office.

If you joined the Electoral Roll last year – 2025 – you do not need to do it again this year. Do get in touch if you are not sure!

How do I know if I am resident in the parish?

You can use a Church Near You to determine whether your home address falls within St Michael’s parish boundaries or not.
