THE PIP CENTRE TRUSTEES REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the trust's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102)" (as amended for accounting period commencing from 1 January 2016)

Constitution, Organisational Structure and Objectives

The PIP Centre was i-icorporated as a company limited by guarantee on 25 March 1999 and as such is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. The company is registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

The objectives of the charity are to provide and maintain a centre to provide facilities for the recreation, education and care of the public in South Molton and the surrounding area.

The directors who central the Charity and carry out the administrative duties are listed on page 2.

In planning our activities we have kept in mind the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit and have followed this guidance to demonstrate the charitable aims are for the public benefit.

Achievements and Performance

We continue to run the PIP Centre with Tarka Tots an established early years provision as our main deliverer of services to the community. Alongside this we continue to offer space to the Health Visitors and school nurses to meet families in a child and family friendly environment.

It has been a frustrating year regarding achieving our funding for replacing our heating system - we missed one funding stream due to technicalities within the complex application process. However there are still funding opportunities in the next few months. Our plumber continues to nurse the system along.

The lighting upgrade that we were able to complete thanks to grant funding has helped enormously with the electricity costs.

Just the lighting enabled us to be financially secure - However our reserves were used during covid and we need to build them back.

Trustees and their Interests

The members of the Charity are directors for the purposes of company law and trustees for the purposes of charity law. No directors hold shares but they have all guaranteed to pay an amount not exceeding £1 in the event of the Charity ceasing and there being a deficiency. The trustees are appointed by a democratic process.

Future Strategies

The Charity plans to continue to provide a venue for the community having upgraded facilities during the year.
