Colin Eveleigh resigned as a trustee on 25110123 as he was unhappy with the way Michael Rowley operated his roles in the charity. Essentially he was acting as the Chainnan of trustees, manager of the shop and treasurer. Also, since the retirement of the previous bank account signatory, he was the sole signatory and seemed reluctant to add other trustees to the account. Although the other trustees agreed that the situation was highly unsatisfactory, it was not until 3 months later {2111124) that Vivienne Galvin and Jan Stuart gained aC￿sS to the bank account and saw clear evidence of a number of suspicious transactions. These transactions were all payments into the personal bank accounts of Michael Rowley. These payments were unauthorised and the majority could not be explained by Mr Rowley. V Galvin and J Stuart reported these payments to the Charity Commission as a serious incident on 12102124 (Ref.. 685342).
