Andrew M Hughes Chairman
Medrwn Môn Yearly Overview 2024-25
This year saw some big changes in Medrwn Môn as we welcomed a new Chief Officer in November (Lyndsey Campbell Williams). We also restructured our core staff and employed a Volunteering Support Officer and Place Shaping Officer, Senior Administrative Officer and Finance Officer.
The UK Government Shared Prosperity fund enabled us to invest on a wide scale in the development of our se FundedUK Government by Place Shaping programme. We developed an online grant making platform in partnership with the Anglesey Charitable Trust to develop projects in areas where there was no active Alliance. Our Alliances grew in number with the addition of Bodowyr in May 2024, taking the total up to 8 Alliances across the Island. With work to establish Talybolion and Cefni and Canolbarth in 2025-26.
In addition to this SPF also funded improvement to community hubs, offering both physical and digital upgrades, support for volunteering and training for community groups.
We launched Connect Anglesey in July 2024. The platform offers the opportunity for community groups and residents to connect through advertising local activities, services and volunteering opportunities locally. We took the time to grow the website
slowly in the first year, supporting community groups to upload their information in a place based way and connecting it with the support offered by our Local Asset Co-ordinators through Môn Community Link.
This year we also worked with partners of the Public Service Healthy Travel Wales Board to sign the Active Travel Charter. The Charter shows our ~~SSS~~ Making healthy travel easier commitment to the Organisation utilising healthier and more sustainable forms of transport. The Charter contains a series of commitments the organisation will make over 2 or 3 years to support their staff and visitors to walk and cycle more, take public transport, and switch to electric vehicles.
In February we signed the Police and Crime Commissioner Third Sector Compact and invited community groups and organisations along to network with the Police and Crime Commissioner, inviting questions about local issues and how the 3rd Sector could actively work with the Commissioner locally on issues such as anti-social behaviour.

Medrwn Môn Môn Community Link
This year saw us move into our final year of our 2022-25 funding. The team worked to evaluate the progress made over the past 3 years and looked at how the project had complimented the delivery of the asset based Place Shaping model. Each Local Asset Co-ordinator is
connected to 2 or more alliance areas, these areas have been identified on the Connect Anglesey website so communities are able to see their point of contact.
The legacy of the previous Tech in Care project saw the team hold events across the Island. Over 58 people and families benefitted from tech to help them stay fit and well, including smart watches, Amazon alexa shows & interactive games.
In March, the Link Team joined others across North Wales, including the BCUHB, voluntary sector organisations, local government and other social prescribing link workers to celebrate Social Prescribing Day.
We worked with Mantell Gwynedd to measure the social value created by this project and are proud to announce that for every £1 invested in the scheme, we have generated a social value of £2.07 ! Finally, we launched our third case study booklet in August highlighting all of the work that has been done over the year, and linked to the 5 Ways to Wellbeing.

Volunteering & Community Action
Connect Anglesey was launched in our Third Sector Network in June this year. Following this we have supported community groups and organisations to upload their volunteering opportunities. Residents are then able to go into the page for their local area and pledge to volunteer for the opportunities. To date we have 94 new community members on the platform, 17 new volunteering opportunities and 2 new volunteer pledges.
With the help of 3 Young Leaders from Barnardo’s Mind Our Future Project we distributed our Youth Volunteering Grant. One of the projects funded was Piws who run the ‘Access Ambassador Programme’ developed to encourage individuals and families to go out with confidence and report back on their experience. The grant was used to set up a campaign directed at 10-25 years olds, to facilitate an ‘Introduction to Accessibility’ workshop and supply the young people with a complimentary access card to go out and report back on their experience.
For Volunteering week in June staff once again volunteered hours with local community groups, joining the Holyhead Clothing Hub, Good Turn Schemes. Bwyd Da Môn and Anglesey Column Trust as well as holding a recruitment event for organisations and individuals at Holyhead and Llangefni.
In November we employed our new Volunteering Support Officer Gemma, and concentrated on our volunteering offer. Over the year 2024 we signposted individuals to 28 different volunteer placements (including RNID, Geomon and Amlwch Heritage Industrial Trust) and supported 7 people into volunteer placements (including Pontio and new drivers for Car Linc).We also continued to support voluntary groups and volunteers through offering training on recruiting and retaining volunteers.

Volunteering Grants SPF
The Volunteering grant was available to community groups to apply for up to £750 to support available to groups to provide activities that identified and explored new volunteering opportunities or removed barriers to volunteering, supported organisations and groups to embed good practice and develop skills thourgh learning and training courses.
Môn Actif received money to run First Aid and Safeguarding training courses for their Young Ambassador Volunteers, upskilling young volunteers between the ages of 1116. The project helped to recruit 12 new volunteers across the 2 courses.
The courses where accredited and provided each of the Young Ambassadors with a qualification. A total of 24 young
volunteers attended across the both courses.
Of the existing volunteers, 3 Young Ambassadors were able to reach the Platinum level, 12 new volunteers were working towards gold rewards, and 5 were working towards their silver level. New Ambassadors also had the
opportunity to shadow existing volunteers, helping to organize events and to gain valuable skills which help them with their volunteering journey for other groups, community clubs and school.
The project enabled Môn Actif to reach a new audience of of potential volunteers, recruiting through schools, social media and community groups. They will continue to work with the Young Ambassadors to further develop any trinaing needs!

This year Sheree, our Third Sector Community & Wellbeing Officer completed a Train the Trainer course and began delivering training for community groups across the Island, including Safeguarding group A for volunteers and Writing Successful Funding Bids
From this year, we began introducing training on Effective Monitoring and Reporting. For every group that Over received funding from us, we offered 2 spaces for members of those groups on to the training. This was introduced for us to be able to share tips and tricks for monitoring that would be useful for any grant reporting!
Feedback from the training showed that 97% of the participants rated the training as excellent or good and of those attending the Monitoring & Reporting training, 100% stated that they had improved their confidence and skills.
Under the funding we received from the Shared Prosperity Funding we were also able to run a number of courses that would support groups to run effectively, including the following:
-
Recruiting and retaining volunteers
-
Raising your brand profile
-
Navigating Change
-
Project Costing and Full cost recovery
-
Canva training
-
Core Conversations
These course were run in conjunction with the Female Alchemist and Basis LTD and all included an element of train the trainer so that we are able to deliver them as an Organisation in the future.

Good Governance- Case Study Bodwrog Memorial Hall, Llynfaes
Bodwrog Memorial Hall was established in 1963, and the Board had recently had a restructure. They had a vision to create a fully environment and to raise awareness of the changes within the wider community.
They approached Medrwn Môn for support during the restructure particulalry in looking at the Legal & Regulatory Compliance of running a voluntary group.
Creating an effective governance structure was complex but they were aware that not having effective governance in place could impact the trustees and the running of the hall. Their governing document and polices also needed updating. Ensuring that all governing documents and policies were correct and in place meant that the group were adhering to the legal and regulatory compliance, giving the committee member and trustees the confidence to continue with managing the Hall, avoiding any fines or penalties for noncompliance.
Medrwn Môn explained to the group the importance of good governance to ensure that the hall was being run fairly, legally and effectively.
With our support, the group identified that they would need to register the new trustees with the Charity Commissioner, and we showed them that should be done. We also provided the group with a template of the governing document/constitution and the polices required by law.
Feedback from the group following our support included ‘Having Medrwn Môn provide us with the documents reduced the time we had to spend creating them ourselves and also it avoided mistakes that could possibly impact the trustees. We now have the confidence to move forward knowing that we are complying with the legal and regulatory requirements of running a voluntary group’.

Medrwn Môn Sustainable Funding- Case study Cybi Youth Hub
The Cybi Youth Hub Committee were looking to creat a dynamic youth hub that served as a proactive force against anti-social behaviour by providing a safe and inclusive space for young people. They were exploring the option of purchasing a building to establish a Youth Hub for the Town and to expand on the number and type of activities available for young people. The group approached Medrwn Môn to discuss their idea for the project. After supporting them with governance in 2023-24 the group now needed support to create a business plan, and identify potential grants against a sustainable funding model .They were clear that, whilst they needed to apply for funding to start the project, they would need to be financially stable for that project to continue long-term to be able to achieve the outcomes that they had set themselves.
The group was looking for a considerable sum of money, both capital and revenue (to secure the building and to run the first few years). The funding landscape meant that there was restricted access to large pots of capital funding and so the group would need to be supported to apply to many funders for smaller pots to add up to the full amount of capital required. This would mean managing a number of different timescales and writing many bids, alongside those that were being submitted for revenue. The group also had the challenge of the building being on the open market, and whilst the owners agreed a reduced sale price, they stated that they would only hold the building until February 2024.
The group worked with Medrwn Môn to apply to multiple funders and explored the option of a Social Investment Cymru loan to bridge the gap in capital funding. In early 2025 the group was successful in securing the final part of their funding and secured the building!! The Lottery Community Fund People and Places programme provided the funding for a project officer for 3 years to get the project up and running. The total value of the project was £565,202 !
Medrwn Môn Sustainable Funding
Key funds continue to support grass roots projects!
3 Young Leaders from Barnardo’s Mind Our Future Project took part in an online youth panel meeting to allocate funding from Medrwn Môn’s GwirVol Grant . The grant gives young people a platform to become decision makers, allocating funding for youth-led volunteering that takes place in communities across Anglesey. The panel funded 8 community groups including CELS community, PIWS and Llyn Parc Mawr.
Llyn Parc Mawr Community Woodland Group worked with North Wales Wildlife Trust to deliver 4 days of training and volunteering for young people aged 16-25 focussing on Conservation and Climate change, offering practical skills in woodland management and team building activities including bushcraft and volunteering activities. Feedback from the young people taking part includes “I've had a brilliant time at Llyn Parc Mawr and it has helped my mental health because I've made new friends and being out in this beautiful forest nearly every day.”
We also continued funding Warm Spaces across the Island with 16 groups receiving money to provide activities in local hubs, village halls and community centres. These groups provided almost 650 sessions with an average of 17 people attending each space.
Alliances continued to distribute their seed funds. Pentraeth and Aethwy Alliance supported 5 community projects including match funding for the developments at Menai Bridge Cricket Club, and activities at Pentraeth Memorial Hall. We received £15,000 Youth Support Grant from Anglesey ‘ > Ef County Council, supporting 9 projects including North 4; We ke Wales Badminton Academy, Sbarduno and Clwb ni Dywran. J Cae Cybi Playing Field Association received Youth Support q : Grant funding to work with Play Disrupt to engage young people and families in a consultation about developing a park in Treseifion, Holyhead. The sessions used the 5 Ways to
Wellbeing to ask those attending what they would like to see included in open play space in the area. 38 people attended the first session ( 18 children and 20 adults). The report was then used to secure extra funding from the Holyhead Alliance to take the sessions into the local High School and Ysgol Cybi Primary school before a final project report was created for the group to use for future funding applications

The funding was split into 4 key for alliances £170k funds: Hub improvement funds Wedi ei ariannu gan Funded[by] O [> UK Government “25° Llywodraeth y DU £7.5k Funding £352,000 volunteering £35k activity ) y, Funding for green spaces O Seed funding for alliances < \ :
Over 65 projects received funding (including the setting up of new youth clubs, speed reduction measures and community murals). Y Sgwrs, an online platform was used where the groups in areas without alliances pitched ideas and the wider communities voted on which should receive funding.
Hub Improvement funds
19 groups received the Hub Improvement grant and a further 16 received the digital improvement grant. These funds were used to upgrade community buildings across the Island to make them more accessible, modern & sustainable.
Volunteering Support fund
9 groups received funding to support the recruitment & retention of volunteers, including training, team building exercises, policy development and publicity.

Engagement & Influencing
As part of our commitment to raising the voice of the sector locally regionally and nationally we supported a number of engagement and consultation events throughout the year. We continued to hold our third sector networks, with networks focussing on Volunteering, Social Prescribing for Children & Young People, and Unhealthy Behaviours. Networks are action based, discussing the barriers encountered by the organisations and groups we work with, and identifying solutions and opportunities for joint working.
We held our second Alliance Showcase and were joined by the Future Generations Commissioner, Derek Walker to celebrate the work done to date. The event gave the Commissioner the opportunity to chat with Alliance members about the work that they had being doing, whether they had experienced any challenges and explored how the Office of the Commissioner could continue to support this work in the future. 22 new case studies were created for the event following the funding of community projects through the Shared Prosperity Fund. We also joined the Building Communities Trust Community Networks programme bringing together community groups from networks in Cardiff, Ynys Môn, Wrexham, the Afan Valley and Gwynedd to share knowledge about how communities measure impact of place based development in creating resilient and resourceful communities.
We officially signed the Third Sector Compact with the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner, offering the community the chance to speak openly to the Police and Crime Commissioner, Andy Dunbobbin, about the concerns that they had about crime and community safety in their area.
In March Medrwn Môn and 6 other Public Service Board members co-signed the Healthy Travel Charter in the presence of Ken Skates, Cabinet Secretary for Transport and North Wales. Under the Charter, Organisations across Wales are showing their commitment to healthier and more sustainable forms of transport. Each Charter contains a series of commitments the organisation will make over 2 or 3 years to support their staff and visitors to walk and cycle more, take public transport, and switch to electric vehicles.

Case study- Bro Aberffraw Alliance
Bro Aberffraw Alliance meetings saw numbers declining in the past 12 months. Having worked hard to identify a new Chair, Medrwn Môn supported the Alliance to do some engagement work around reaching those members in the community who never attend formal meetings, and who’s voices aren’t always heard around the table.
To do this, the new Chair was keen to make a video, discussing the issues people would like to see represented at the Alliance meetings and to raise the profile of the group. We supported the Alliance with funding to work with Crefft Media, and developed some engaging questions to us in targeted areas in the Ward.
Our Place Shaping Officer and the Chair, Sara Spinks spoke to people outside local schools, village halls, shops and cafes as well as visiting some in their homes! Before pulling all the information together and presenting to the wider Alliance. The information was then used to further develop the
Alliance, whilst recruiting community members from each area on subgroups to take actions forward.
The Place Shaping Film was presented to Third Sector Support Wales as a case study. The project was positive and the information gathered during filming went on to provide some achievable outcomes, and the work progressed into community projects received funding through the Shared Prosperity Fund.
Sara, Chairperson, Bro Aberffraw stated ‘ Medrwn Môn’s support has been transformational for us as a community. Through the film project and placeshaping work, we’ve been able to connect with residents in a deeper, more meaningful way - especially those who don’t usually have their voices heard. It’s helped us identify real needs and drive forward practical, people-led solutions like youth services, health access, and tackling transport barriers. Most importantly, it’s given the community confidence that change is possible when we come together ’

STRATEGIC REPORT
Achievements and performance
Charitable activities
As a member of Third Sector Support Wales, a network of support organisations for the third sector in Wales, we continued to support the third sector on Anglesey, providing advice and assistance under each of the four pillars of work - Good Governance, Volunteering and Active Communities, Sustainable Funding and Engagement and Influencing, raising awareness of voluntary sector activities and services as well as being a strong voice for the voluntary sector throughout our work.
We also manage a project that complements and adds value to our core work. Môn Community Link provides asset based social prescribing support to the vulnerable people within our communities and supports our local group through signposting to their activities and increasing footfall in community buildings and hubs.
Aside from the core funding we distribute key funds with funding from partners such as Anglesey County Council. This sees the organisation receiving funds from partners and distributing the funds on specific themes, such as Warms spaces and Youth Support.

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2025
STRATEGIC REPORT Financial review
Reserves policy
The Board has recently reviewed its reserves policy. This policy sets out how Medrwn Môn determines, manages, and reviews its financial reserves to ensure the sustainability of its work and obligations. It aligns with the Charity Commission's guidance on reserves (CC19) and supports long-term planning and good governance. Medrwn Môn will:
-
Maintain reserves at a prudent level to protect the organisation from unexpected financial pressures.
-
Ensure transparency in the classification and use of reserves.
-
Distinguish between unrestricted, designated, and restricted reserves.
-
Regularly review reserves in relation to risk, funding cycles, and operational needs.
Given the large fluctuations in the pension scheme deficit over recent years and the unpredictability of future funding, the trustees consider that this level of Reserves is reasonable at this moment in time.
Going concern
The Trustees are satisfied that the Charity will continue as a going concern for at least 12 months from the date of issuing these financial statements.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The trustees have identified the major risks to which the Charity is exposed and have established systems to mitigate these risks. Financial risk is managed primarily by setting and monitoring budgets for any functions based on income sources within the single unrestricted fund.
Future plans
Our plans for the future are focused on ensuring that we continue to operate within the requirements of the Third Sector Support Wales Partnership Agreement, which is our agreement with the Welsh Government and WCVA to support and promote the voluntary sector.
Following on from our work last year, we will continue to focus on the current state of the sector locally and to support organisations and groups to adapt their service delivery, look at opportunities for joint working and identify opportunities for informing policy and future planning in light of the current context of funding shortages, competition for grants and National Insurance increases.
The organisation will retain its commitment to ensuring our services relate to the core service specifications expected of County Voluntary Councils. We will administer grant funds which support local voluntary and community groups, including additional funds to support the Third Sector.
We will continue to link people to Medrwn Môn's Social Prescribing service, Môn Community Link, and work with partners to ensure co-operation and collaboration. Our new focus for 2025-28 will be in expanding this offer and focussing on support for young people and families.
Place Shaping will be key to our delivery, utilising the place based approach to support independent and resilient communities, focussing on wellbeing and the impact of decisions on future generations under the Wellbeing of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2016.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Medrwn Mon
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Medrwn Mon ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2025.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2025
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Fixtures and fittings - 20% on reducing balance Computer equipment - 30% on reducing balance
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
Employees of Medrwn Mon may participate in the Gwynedd Pension Fund, part of the Local Government Pension Scheme, a defined benefit pension scheme, and the Charity accounts for this in accordance with FRS 102.
Scheme assets are measured at fair value. Scheme liabilities are measured on an actuarial basis using the projected unit method and are discounted at appropriate high quality corporate bond rates. The net surplus or deficit is presented separately from other net assets on the balance sheet. A net surplus is only recognised to the extent that it is recoverable by the company.
The current service cost and costs from settlements and curtailments are charged against operating profit. Past service costs are spread over the period until the benefit increases vest. Interest on the scheme liabilities and the expected return on scheme assets are included in other finance income/costs. Actuarial gains and losses are reported in the statement of total recognised gains and losses.
