Structure, governance and management- High Wycombe Shopmobility is a registered charity who is
th
governed by a constitution; the constitution was adopted 18 April 1994, amended 7th June 1999,
th
th
amended 30 July 2001, amended 16 June 2015, amended 25th June 2020.The Charity is managed by 3
board The Executive Committee which consist of not less than eight members and not more than twelve
members, following the rules as set out in the constitution. They meet five times a year. The Charity is
run by the trustees who all act in an honorary capacity. A new trustee would receive copies of the
previous years, Annual Report and Accounts and advised to read the Charity Commission's leaflet 'The
Essential Trustee: What you need to know,.
Reserves Policy- High Wycombe Shopmobility h35 a reserves policy which is reviewed at the quarterly
management meetings, its wording is: We the Trustees of High Wycombe Shopmobility intend to keep
in designated reserves the sum of £75,000 which equates to approximately one years running costs of
the charity. This money is to enable financial liabilities to be met should there be a shortfall of income in
any financial year. It may also be used to meet any unplanned expenditure or special projects as agreed
by the Trustees. The money will be used to meet the costs of closing the charity should it become
necessary. This policy will be reviewed quarterly at the scheduled meeting of the Trustees and amended
as required.

Manager's reports- The manager presents a quarterly report to the Executive Committees quarterly
meetings and an Operation Report to their AGM and attends their meetings to discuss any concerns
raised. The most recent report is below;_
Our Mission Statement- Shopmobility is an independent registered charity offering the free daily loan
of mobility scooters, manual and powered wheelchairs to access High Wycombe Town Centre. We aim
to promote independence and enhance daily living for anyone with limited mobility whether temporary
or permanent. Our opening hours are Monday to Saturday 9.30am to 16.45pm and on Bank Holidays
12.00 to 15.45pm. We are closed on Sundays.
High Wycombe Shopmobility opened in April 1994 and became an independent registered charity on
24th October 1994 and we celebrated our 25th Anniversary in June 2019.
The Management Committee meets five times a year and consists of a Chairperson, Vice Chairperson,
Treasurer and Secretary and up to nine additional committee members; these are to include a
representative of Eden Management, The Buckinghamshire Council and two members who use the
service. Elections are held at the Shopmobility AGM in June/July. A dedicated team of five part-time
staff and six volunteers manage and run the service.
Going concern - Our main sponsor has announced the gradual withdrawal of their financial backing of the
Charity over a 10 year period. This will have a negative effect on our funding of £39,050 for 22/23, to
23124 down £7,000, 24/25 down £5,500 25/26 down £3,000 down to zero funding by 203212033. To
negate the impact that this will have on the charity we have employed a grant and funding officer who
will be responsible for seeking new revenue sources. This will include: corporate sponsorship, corporate
and none corporate donations, core running cost grants and other forms of income. We will also increase
our focus on both internal and external fund raising events and ask our sponsors to participate.
We also made the difficult decision to start introducing both membership fees and daily hire charges from
the 1st April 2024 (expected to raise £14,000). We will also be increasing the overnight hire fee from £3
to £5 per night and remove the reduced rate for weekly hire. This is assumed to raise an additional £1,000
per year. It is believed that the introduction of daily hire fees, the raising of the overnight hire fees and
membership should generate a minimum of £15,500 per year.
The opening of a small shop, selling mobility aids could also bring in more revenue estimated at £800 -
£1,000 per year in year l and we assume this wi15 increase with awareness and a better targeted stock
holding.
We have aSso identified that our Social Media presence needs a boost, allowing us to let people know who
we are and the brilliant services we offer people.
A detailed cashflow has been performed for the next 8 years and as a result of the above initiative5 and
our reserves policy, we are assuming a breakeven net cash position in the year 24/25 as well as
sustainable net cash positions in the future years.
The trustees have concluded that Shopmobility will be able to continue to operate and pay its
obligations in the foreseeable future. Therefore, the financial statements are prepared on the
assumption that Shopmobility is a going concern.
