A word from our Chair Roy Isworth

In what marks a pivotal year in the history of The Mildred Trust I am delighted to present our Annual Report and Accounts. The scope of The Mildred Trust had increased hugely from that of its predecessor The Vicar of Tenterden Trust. It became clear that the workload was too great for Trustees to continue meeting new obligations and the demand on our services. A decision was taken to employ a CEO and begin the process to become a CIO. We were extremely fortunate to secure the services of Beth Rice, who joined in September 2024. Since then, huge progress has been made, with many new services being provided. Further salaried staff will be appointed in the new financial year, and I look forward with confidence to ever greater charitable outreach in the coming years.

CEO Beth Rice

It gives me great pleasure to introduce The Mildred Trusts Annual Report in what has been an exciting year. I was delighted to join the Trust in September 2024 as Chief Executive Officer after undertaking consultancy work developing the charity with Trustees over the last two years. Our emphasis this year has been on developing the charities infrastructure Including governance, strategy, IT, funding and business planning to ensure we are responsive to the needs of our rural communities.

We started the year working with Trustees and people in our local community to create a strategy based on our Theory of Change priority areas.

We have implemented a grant funding strategy, working to develop new funding streams to diversify our original mission and maintain financial sustainability. Our impact this year demonstrates how The Mildred Trust has enhanced people’s lives, built opportunities, and developed new partnerships.

As we move into the next financial year, the economy remains uncertain, and people are still affected hugely by the cost-of-living crisis. We will continue to work with community members to develop their ideas to address both immediate and longer-term needs.

I would like to offer sincere thanks to our Trustees and volunteers for their hard work and dedication over the last year. The next year looks exciting!
