After the ASM on 25th September I will have completed six years as a trustee and will be stepplng down. l should like to thank Slmon Henderson and h15 team for thelr hard work and the excellent job which they do. I should also like to thank 311 the rrustees for their time, support and help in making Hampstead Garden Suburb Trvst such a speclal place. The Trust was set up In 1968 and is legally charged wlth doSng '311 thing5 possible to mainialn and preserve the character and amenities of Hampstead Garden Suburb" The last year has been extremely busy for the Hampstead Garden suburb Trust. The Trust has had a full 12 months of site vls5ts, dSs£LJssions with residents, and all the other activities that ensure otsr Suburb remains a delightful place to live. The Suburb 15 a livin8 place, and the Trust mL+5t always balance the i55ues of the moment with its wider duty. One partlcular challen8e is how the energy efficiency of Suburb houses can be improved to meet thè challenge of climate change without compromising the spec+al character ol the suburb. Working with expert advisors, we have developed detailed guidance on retrofitting Suburb homes. and this wlll be launched later ifi the year. We have also started to eonslder the rehabilitation of the land below Central Square, followlng our rtracquisition ol the main Square two years ago. We know some residents are keen to see additK)nal community facilities provided here. and we vlll be developin8 our ide45 for consultation in the year ahead. We have also responded to residents, concerns over the use of the present tenni5 Cotsrts, and a new booking and access system is now in place. We aim to be supportive. Applications for Trust consent are approvecl where they preservethe character o* the butlding. For those that do not, we can often, through dialogue, help resirlents revise their proposal to ach￿eve the s3me effect whlle preserving architectural character. We a150 awarded a record £34,070 in grants to twelve local organisations who support the social or cultural life of the Suburb. and we held a number of public walks to promote the appreciation of the natural and build enviroTrment of the Suburb. We man8ge and n7aintain some ol the most important green spaces In the Suburb, includln85ur4shlne Corner and Central Square. We 3150 manage and malntaln many other smaller green spaces and 8arden5, as well as tenni5 Courts and allotments. We are also worklng on improving understanding of the Suburb through walks, talks. exhibitions and conferences for re5ident5 and also for the many overseas academic5, archltects 3nd other vlsitors who want to see this unique place for thernself. All this is 3 labo￿r-Intens￿e proc￿$. The Trust staff, led by chlef executive Sifnon Hender50n c8rried out around 540 archltectural slte visit5 by the planning team. arranged 395 tree Inspections by our arboriculturist, took in excess of 5000 calls wlth residents and responL*ed to numberless emails. Thls vital work, however, can only be done W￿th sound finances. We have worked hard to 8Èt the Trust'5 funds into credlt to protect agalnst any future leglslarlon which could reduce Trust income. ensur￿n8 the unique charm of the Suburb can be enjoyed by generations to come. The Scheme of Managefflent Is funded by the mana8emÈnt charge paics by each freehold property. We recognise the importance of flnancial prudence and delivering real valuÈ for charge payers whilst ensuring that the Scheme can meet its expenses which have risen Substantially in recent yÈars. However, a careful approach to budgeting and prudent management means we have been able to hold the flse in both the 8ross and payable rnanagement charee over the last few years well below the r8te of Inflation. ènd indeed reduce it when pos5iblE. Full details ol the Trust'5 finances come later in this report. All the good work above can only be done in partnership with residents, who recognlse the Suburb as a wonderful place Ilve. We want to eDcoura8e all our residentsto become mernbers of theTru5t. There is no fee, and the only qualrfitation Is that you have to have lived in your property for three years Iwhich includes those who rent their hornesl.

For the purposes ol thi5 report the term"Trust" is used to mean the company whose directors are referred to as 'rhe trustees" the board 15 referred to a5-the Counciy. OUR PURPOSE The object and principal attlvlty of the Trust is to do all thin85 Possible to maintain and preserve the preseni eharacter and amenities of Hompstead Garden SubL*rb. The original Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust wa5 fOu￿ded in 1907 and managed a Suburb that was almost entlrely composed of leasehold properties. In 1967, changes legislation obliged landlords to sell their freeholds on demand to long leaseholders. As the original Trust w35 not equipped for this new situation, It was dissolved after pressure from residents and replaced bythe presentTru5t with a new constltutionthe following year. Instead of Shareholders, theTrust has members. who must be Suburb residents, but no owners. The trustees are not permitted to benefit linanclally from their p051tions and on dissolution the assets of the Trust would be at the dlsposal of the Charity Commis510n. The Trust has two princlpal functions.. l. For all resldents.. The Trust holds its assets and its remainlng unenlranchised leaseholds in trust for all the resldents of the Hampstead Garden Suburb. It manages these assets to maximize their value, and it devotes any operatlnB surplu5 to the (hariiable purposes described in its Memorandum of Association and to maintaining its flnancial security. The Trust's charftable purpose5 cover the advancement of the arts. culture and heritage, environmental protection and irnprovernent. Hampstead Garden Suburb Is Internatlonally recognised as the finest and best realised ex3mple of En8llsh twentieth-century domest*c architecture and plannin8. The public benefit extends far beyond the 16.000 or 50 resldents of the Suburb to the national and Snternational cornmunity- lay and prole55ional- with an interest in architecture, urban planning and social hlstory. Th& lessons to be learnt from the ethos, history, landscape and architecture of the Stjburb benefit both present and futuregeneration5. 2. For freehold property owner5 only. The Trust also operates a Scherne ol Management, as provided for in section 19 of the Leasehold Reforrn Act of 1967. In 1974. the High Court authorised a Scheme under which the appearance of the bu51dings and 8rounds of all enfranchlsÈd freehold properties is iegulated bytheTrust. The purpose of the Scherne Is to ensure that the Suburb'5 architectural integrity and it5 amentties in terms of its trees, open spaces and gardens fe preserved and rna*ntained, and that unreasonable development Is prevented. The Scheme is funded by a Management Charge payable annually by freeholders. This money is held in trust for the freeholders alone and reTDains their property until spent, The Scheme's flnances have to balance Year￿n-ye8r. and any surplus Fnu5t be returned to Charge payers the lolltswlng year. The Scheme does not have any re5e¥ves and does not own anything. Since 1974, the great malorlry of the houses and many Of the flat blocks on the Suburb have enfranchised and fall withln the Scheme of MansEement, the numbers *ncreasingyear by year. In 1988 thelrvst 3cquired thefreeholds of all the long leasehold properties on the Suburb lincludlng rn05t of the blocks of Ilatsl frorn A5hdale Land aTrd Property Company Ltd. Throu8h these leases, thefreehold ownership of 11 allotment sites, 27 unadopted roads, sorne 50 other commun?1 open Spac￿ aThd the Scheme of Management itself, the Trust can maintaln a IJnSfied control over changes to neaFly all Suburb propertie5, together wlth the tree5. hedges. and many of the communal area5 around them.
