The minutes were accepted as a true and accurate record with no objections. 

## **Matters Arising** 

There were no matters arising, as how we had progressed in the year were available in the Marlene Reid Centre 2024 printed booklet and provided to all attendees. 

## **AGM Report** 

The Chair made an opening statement, welcoming and thanking all the people present for attending. 

All reports were available at the meeting and are attached to the minutes. 

Paul Fagan Centre manager gave a powerpoint presentation to explain our new logo and rebrand. 

Key messages included: 

Another year of growth for the organisation which enabled some significant investment. In particular the renovation of our reception area, completed on time within budget and positive feedback from users. We introduced a greeter role, where a team member was always on hand to welcome and support visitors. 

The rebrand which included reverting to the full name of THE MARLENE REID CENTRE.  The new hand logo and colour scheme, each finger representing a different areas of our organisation to reflect our overall offering. 

Changes to the signage of our retail shops, we hope will provide wider appeal with the names – RESTORE (furniture warehouse) RECYCLE(clothing and household) and REST(beds, recycled and new) 

The achievements, visitor numbers and progress is stated clearly in the printed booklet. 

A partnership approach and alignment of MRC values with 28 organisations, e.g Oakland International, NHS, Morrisons and Enrych. All partners are listed in our printed report. 

**MRC COMMUNITY ACTION** 

Company Limited by Guarantee No: 3230594 Registered Charity No: 1058583 The Marlene Reid Centre, 85 Belvoir Road, Coalville, Leicestershire LE67 3PH Tel: 01530 510515  Email:info@mrc.uk.net 



We sincerely thanked customers, visitors and donors for their support. We are proud of the relationship we have built with our local external supporters, both commercial and statutory. 

## **Annual Accounts** 

The current Financial statements are presented as ‘Final Audited’ Reports and Accounts to year ended 31st March 2024. 

Turnover of the organisation for the year to 31st March 2024 was £586,852 compared to the previous year figure of £535,300. 

Expenditure for the year to 31st March 2024 was £550,594 compared to the previous year figure of £533,556.  Our end result for the year being £35,988. However, this figure includes a one off adjustment of £19,465 to the fixed asset register. This was brought to our attention by our accountants and is based on historic inaccuracy in the accounts.  This action has effectively inflated our year end position which would have sat at £16,523. 

The final accounts have been reported and filed with the appropriate organisation. 

Trustees continue to outsource the Annual Accounting process to Elverstone Large Ltd. 

## **Election of Trustees** 

MRC Community Action Articles of Association require any trustee coopted during the year to stand for election at the next AGM and for one third of existing trustees to also stand for election on a rotational basis. 

Trustee rota to stand down were Rod Barlow and Raj Tugnet. Both agreed to stand for re-election.  Liz Ricaby proposed both to be elected and Craig Large seconded. Rod Barlow and Raj Tugnet were re-elected as Trustees. 

## **Any other Business** 

No other business was identified 

## **Questions were invited.** 

No questions asked from the attendees 

The meeting was closed.
