The Rotary Clubs of Telford and District Trust Fund Registered charity no. 1109036
Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2021
The Trustees are pleased to present their Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2021.
The Trust has no permanent premises. Correspondence should be addressed to the treasurer, Jim Tranter, at Baxter House, Rowton, Telford, Shropshire, TF6 6QY.
The trust was established by Declaration of Trust dated 1[st] September 2004. Trustees are nominated by each of four Rotary Clubs (the Rotary Clubs of Ironbridge, Telford Centre, Wellington and The Wrekin), serve for a four year term, and may be reappointed.
It is the practice of the Trust to distribute substantially the whole of the restricted funds raised in each financial year as soon as practicable. Material reserves are therefore not carried.
The purposes of the charity as set out in the Trust Deed are to apply the capital and income of the trust fund for such purposes as the trustees shall from time to time direct. Funds are applied to causes nominated by the four Rotary Clubs and the public benefit will be apparent from the list shown in the financial statements.
The principal activity during the year has, as in previous years, been the promotion of a Tree of Light in Telford Town Centre. This was again very successful and led to £42,000 being raised for six deserving local causes – the Severn Hospice; Hope House; Telford After Care Team; East Shropshire Talking Newspaper; Citizens Advice Telford and Wrekin; and YMCA Wellington (Holly Project). The Tree of Light has continued in 2021/2022. The fund also provides a vehicle for charitable activities proposed and funded by local Rotary Clubs.
The Trust has no employees and all decisions are taken by the Trustees. The Trust’s achievements in the financial year are set out in the receipts and payments account.
The Trustees who served during the year ended 30 June 2021, and to the date of this report, were:
Paul William Booth Christopher Broad Marjorie Florence Johnson Daniel Scollard-Kerr Christopher John Mackrell Francis Martin Curry Peter George Seaward Maxwell Clowes (to 13 August 2020) Jim Tranter Arthur Raymond Hoof (from 13 August 2020)
