## **The Lanchester Partnership** 

## **TRUSTEES’REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Description of the charity’s trusts** 

The Lanchester Partnership (“the Charity”) is a registered charity, number 1099801. 

The objects of the Charity are defined in Clause 3 of the memorandum of association.  These were amended at the AGM in 2020 to take account of the Covid support activities being undertaken at that time. 

The charity has about 200 members. 

At present it works with 8 ‘working groups’ 

- Working with Young People Group 

- Transport Group 

- Environment Group 

- Community Orchard Group 

   - Friends of Longovicium 

   - “Welcoming Lanchester” Group (Loneliness Group) 

   - Social Activities (Village Vita) Group 

- Monitoring Development Group 

There are restricted funds for: 

- Working with Young People Group 

- Lanchester Village Bus Link 

- Environment Group 

- Community Orchard Group 

- Monitoring Development Group 

   - “Welcoming Lanchester” Group (Loneliness Group) 

   - Social Activities (Village Vita) Group 

   - Small Group 

   - Covid 19 

- Friends of Longovicium 

There is also an unrestricted Core Fund. 

## **Trustees and governance** 

Trustees are responsible for the management of the Charity and are as named in the previous section Charity Information, as are the Charity’s bankers.  Annually, an independent examiner inspects the accounts. This year, as every other year they have been approved without comment. 

At each Annual General Meeting (‘AGM’) one third of the Trustees resign, some by rotation. New Trustees (who may have been nominated by members or by Trustees are elected at the AGM, at which all members present have a vote. 

Before the AGM each year the Trustees review the overall balance of experience and skills represented on the Trustee Board, and if it is thought desirable make nominations aimed at improving some aspect of these.  Most recent appointments have followed such review and nominations by Trustees. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

We aim to have reserves in our Core fund approximately equal to one year’s expenditure on core funding, and reserves in the Village Link Bus account equal to one year’s expenditure on the bus.  They are currently a little below that level. 

Page|  4 



## **Activities and achievements** 

We have been pleased to welcome one new Trustee, Lesley Anderson and continue to seek individuals with appropriate skills, knowledge and commitment to the charity. During the course of the year the Covid Group did outstanding work responding to the needs of isolated, shielding and vulnerable residents during lockdown periods. The Social Activities/Village Vita group was innovative in making socially distanced and virtual events available to residents. The Village Bus continued to operate, and with diminished numbers of passengers, was able to deliver social support by undertaking shopping trips and errands on behalf of regular users who were shielding at home. 

## **Overall Financial Position** 

This remains healthy.  We started the financial year with £21,518 in current cash assets and finished the year with current cash assets of  £20,436.  The Partnership also has fixed assets of £6,000 in orchard trees, and £209 gazebos used at events such as the Fun Run. Receipts for the year stood at: £26,059 Expenditure for the year stood at: £27,140 Core funding stands at: £1,090  - slightly above the level at the end of last year Expenditure from Core stood at: £1,767 There is now a need to increase the level of Core reserves in order to meet the target of holding one year of core expenditure in core reserves.  This can be achieved by increasing the number of donations from members. 

## **Working with Young People** 

There were no recorded activities for this group. £150 of the existing balance was used as a contribution to the Partnership Insurance Policy 

## **Village Bus** 

Expenditure exceeded income by £1,999 primarily in consequence of the reduction in passenger numbers and donations.  Fundraising events could not take place to plug the gap in income. The end of year balance has now dipped below one year’s worth of expenditure and this needs to be addressed. 

## **Paradiso Club** 

There were not recorded activities for this group. £1,500 was generously used as a donation to the Community Centre to replace lost income during the pandemic. 

## **Friends of Longovicium** 

A generous donation from a private individual was used to part fund extended Geophysical-surveying activity. At end of year the balance was 50% lower standing at £488. 

## **Small Projects** 

There was no activity in this fund. 

## **Parish Plan** 

This fund now stands at zero.  There was no activity but the small balance at the start or the year was used to contribute to the insurance payment. 

## **Environment** 

There was no activity in this fund, which retains a small reserve at its previous level. 

Page|5 



## **Loneliness** 

There was no activity in this fund.  The £258 remaining will be used for work in schools and with the Young Persons Patient Group when it is safe to proceed in £2021-22. 

## **Covid 19** 

Following the end of Covid restrictions this group ceased operation after a year of work. The fund saw the greatest activity within the Partnership this year with £10,027 receipts and £9,267 expenditure. There is a small residual balance of £761 and the group will consider how this should be used or if it should be retained as a contingency for future Covid related activity should an emergency need arise. 

## **Coordination** 

As the name implies we often work in partnership with the Parish and County Councils and other authorities and organisations. We talk with our local MP. Members have attended formal meetings of organisations including Lanchester Parish council, mid Durham Area Action Partnership (AAP). Lanchester Community Association, PACT (Police and Community Together) NHS Healthwatch and the Clinical Commissioning Group, the Campaign to Protect Rural Lanchester and the Lanchester Medical Centre Patients’ Participation Group. There are no formal links but informal links are carefully maintained. 

Informally, our individual members are also members of many other organisations. 

## **Review of Major Risks** 

The Charity is a small organisation, carrying out small projects and handling fairly small amounts of money.  The Trustees consider that it is not exposed to any risks that are significant in magnitude or likelihood. Moreover: 

   - a) it has public liability insurance; 

   - b) before carrying out any activity with foreseeable risk it does what it can to minimize that risk, carrying out a risk assessment; 

   - c) every three months accounts are reviewed by the Trustees; and 

   - d) every year the annual accounts are approved by the Trustees and are independently examined/ 

- I declare in my capacity as Chairman of the Trustees that: 

      - the Trustees have approved the report above, and 

      - they have authorised me to sign on their behalf

## **TRUSTEES’REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Description of the charity’s trusts** 

The Lanchester Partnership (“the Charity”) is a registered charity, number 1099801. 

The objects of the Charity are defined in Clause 3 of the memorandum of association.  These were amended at the AGM in 2020 to take account of the Covid support activities being undertaken at that time. 

The charity has about 200 members. 

At present it works with 8 ‘working groups’ 

- Working with Young People Group 

- Transport Group 

- Environment Group 

- Community Orchard Group 

   - Friends of Longovicium 

   - “Welcoming Lanchester” Group (Loneliness Group) 

   - Social Activities (Village Vita) Group

- Working with Young People Group

- Environment Group 

- Community Orchard Group 

- Monitoring Development Group 

   - “Welcoming Lanchester” Group (Loneliness Group) 

   - Social Activities (Village Vita) Group 

   - Small Group 

   - Covid 19 

- Friends of Longovicium 

There is also an unrestricted Core Fund. 

## **Trustees and governance** 

Trustees are responsible for the management of the Charity and are as named in the previous section Charity Information, as are the Charity’s bankers.  Annually, an independent examiner inspects the accounts. This year, as every other year they have been approved without comment. 

At each Annual General Meeting (‘AGM’) one third of the Trustees resign, some by rotation. New Trustees (who may have been nominated by members or by Trustees are elected at the AGM, at which all members present have a vote. 

Before the AGM each year the Trustees review the overall balance of experience and skills represented on the Trustee Board, and if it is thought desirable make nominations aimed at improving some aspect of these.  Most recent appointments have followed such review and nominations by Trustees. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

We aim to have reserves in our Core fund approximately equal to one year’s expenditure on core funding, and reserves in the Village Link Bus account equal to one year’s expenditure on the bus.  They are currently a little below that level.

## **Activities and achievements** 

We have been pleased to welcome one new Trustee, Lesley Anderson and continue to seek individuals with appropriate skills, knowledge and commitment to the charity. During the course of the year the Covid Group did outstanding work responding to the needs of isolated, shielding and vulnerable residents during lockdown periods. The Social Activities/Village Vita group was innovative in making socially distanced and virtual events available to residents. The Village Bus continued to operate, and with diminished numbers of passengers, was able to deliver social support by undertaking shopping trips and errands on behalf of regular users who were shielding at home. 

## **Overall Financial Position** 

This remains healthy.  We started the financial year with £21,518 in current cash assets and finished the year with current cash assets of  £20,436.  The Partnership also has fixed assets of £6,000 in orchard trees, and £209 gazebos used at events such as the Fun Run. Receipts for the year stood at: £26,059 Expenditure for the year stood at: £27,140 Core funding stands at: £1,090  - slightly above the level at the end of last year Expenditure from Core stood at: £1,767 There is now a need to increase the level of Core reserves in order to meet the target of holding one year of core expenditure in core reserves.  This can be achieved by increasing the number of donations from members. 

## **Working with Young People** 

There were no recorded activities for this group. £150 of the existing balance was used as a contribution to the Partnership Insurance Policy 

## **Village Bus** 

Expenditure exceeded income by £1,999 primarily in consequence of the reduction in passenger numbers and donations.  Fundraising events could not take place to plug the gap in income. The end of year balance has now dipped below one year’s worth of expenditure and this needs to be addressed.

There was no activity in this fund.  The £258 remaining will be used for work in schools and with the Young Persons Patient Group when it is safe to proceed in £2021-22. 

## **Covid 19** 

Following the end of Covid restrictions this group ceased operation after a year of work. The fund saw the greatest activity within the Partnership this year with £10,027 receipts and £9,267 expenditure. There is a small residual balance of £761 and the group will consider how this should be used or if it should be retained as a contingency for future Covid related activity should an emergency need arise. 

## **Coordination** 

As the name implies we often work in partnership with the Parish and County Councils and other authorities and organisations. We talk with our local MP. Members have attended formal meetings of organisations including Lanchester Parish council, mid Durham Area Action Partnership (AAP).

Informally, our individual members are also members of many other organisations.
