Trustees Annual Report and Financial Statements
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
Constantine Enterprise Company is a charitable company limited by guarantee not having a share capital. It was incorporated on 28th April 1998 and is governed by its memorandum and articles. It has been registered as a Development Trust. The charity was registered with the Charities Commission on 6th October 1998.
Trustees investment powers
The Trustees have the power to invest the company’s funds as deemed appropriate.
Appointment of trustees and trust organisation.
The trust is run on a voluntary basis by the elected trustees. The members at the AGM appoint the trustees who hold at least three meetings throughout the year. The Company (CEC) is run by the trustees with decisions being taken at these board meetings. The Trust must be run with no fewer than three trustees and at least one third of the appointed trustees must be present to be quorum. The trustees appoint the Chairman. All trustees have one vote at board meetings and were equality of votes arises the Chairman shall have the casting vote. All members over the age of eighteen are eligible to put themselves forward as trustees. All trustees are appointed by the board and approved at the AGM. New trustees are inducted into the working of the charity.
Organisational structure
There are two principal organising groups – the CEC and its wholly owned subsidiary the TOC. Each has a board of directors (trustees). The membership of the CEC board is printed at the start of this report. The TOC Directors at 30 September 2019 were Mr J Welch, Mr C Pugh, Mrs T Clowes, Ms Sally Spens, Mrs B Pugh, Mr D Jeffries and Mr T Beattie.
Separate accounts for the TOC as well as the accounts for the CEC are to be presented at the joint AGM in May 2020.
Risk management
Both CEC and TOC have undertaken a review of risks to which the Charity is exposed. There is an ongoing process of Risk Assessment at all levels of the operation. In addition, a full insurance policy is in operation to cover the activities and assets of the Charity and a separate policy covers the activities of the Trustees.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The first objective is to progress projects for the benefit of the village community and the parish of Constantine.
Volunteers
The successful running of the charity depends on the immense time contribution provided by a large body of volunteers. The work that they carry out in administration duties, fundraising, organising events and operating the Tolmen Centre enables the charity to achieve its objectives.
Achievement and Performance
Charitable Activities
The charity continues it’s main objective to promote and progress initiatives for the benefit of the village community.
The year to 30/9/2020 (and since) has been blighted by the Covid pandemic which has severely impacted our charitable activities. Many – indeed most - of our activities have been prevented by lockdown and other measures.
During the year, in spite of restrictions, the Charity has continued to develop and improve Bosahan Woods for the village community, helped by plentiful volunteer help and and generous charitable donations.

A plan to take a tenancy of the Glebe Garden as a community facility has also developed.
The Tolmen Centre - which has been a principal focus of delivery for the charity – was effectively closed from March 2020 onwards and will be limited in what can be achieved as long as restrictions prevent it’s main function as an Arts and Community Centre. We have benefited from various grants available to the Retail Hospitality and Leisure sector and these have kept us financially solvent in spite of lack of trading income.
It is worth noting in retrospect that up until the lockdown of March 2020 the Tolmen Centre, and indeed all the activities promoted by the Charity had been progressing as well or better than forecast. Much damage has been done to our charitable activities since then by the covid pandemic – and indeed to the whole performing arts industry of which we are small part.
However, much has been achieved in renovation and improvement to the Tolmen Centre building itself – the Car Park has been resurfaced, and the project to renovate the roof was getting under way as the year ended on 30/9/2020 with finance in place and contracts agreed.
We continue to operate almost entirely based on volunteer help, given in large volumes by a wide range of individuals for the good of the community.
Grateful thanks are extended to all the helpers whose time so freely given allows this to happen. Though many of our activities have been prevented, a small core of helpers have kept things going – most especially with the Tolmen Centre building renovation project. Much more HELP will be needed in future as we try to rebuild our charitable activities once the restrictions caused by Covid are eased.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Constantine Enterprises Company Limited
I report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 30 September 2020, which are set out on the attached pages
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities
have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
