Addltlonal governance issues (Optional information)
The Trustees oversee the day to day running of the charity. The trustees
seek the views of the year reps in deading the events to be run and often
create sutcommittees to Tun individual events wth at least 1 truslee
advrsng. All events are checked against our Eco policy and Indusivity
icy. All trustees give thar time voluntarily and receive no remuneration
or other benefils. As per our Conslilution, all deosions are made by a
simple maiorFiy vcrte cast at a wmmittee meeling.

The most signrficant risk to the charity at the start of the first scho)I lerm
was not being able to make the usual money through large events like
fairs due to Covid restricaions. We overcame this by adapting our usual
¥¥fflL>. LFIV kal 11 It*Lllhas rair kield outside, Holloweeri ai i
in-school film and the quiz and raffles were done Mrtually. We also
utilised Just Giving by having more fundraising and sponsorship events
that worked with restrictions and eamed us Gift Aid.
Ar￿ther ongoing risk is the reducbon of volunteers for events. This was
managed by intrc*Jucing online volunteer system and optimised events by
reducFng the work load and maximi&ng profrt. This was done by using
wholesale suppliers to purchase sttxk in bulk rather than make several
trips to more coslly shops. removtng floats from events & going cash free
and supporting reps as much as possible.
We are also aware that the cost of living increase is PLrtting pressure on
familie5 so we increased our second hand unrfomi sales and introduced
a second hand Christmas jumper sale with the same profft as a new
jumper. Hel￿ng out families while still making the same money.
