Structure Governance and Management
Good Food Matters is a charitable company limited by guarantee, governed by the Memorandum and Articles, incorporated on 8 April 2005, and registered as Good Food Matters under registration number 1111235 and company number 05418543.
Liability of Members
The charitable company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1. Trustees are directors for the purposes of the Companies Act and Trustees for the purposes of the Charities Act. They are also the members.
Appointment of Directors (who are also Trustees)
Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association members of the Trustee Board are elected to serve from their appointment until the next AGM. At each annual general meeting one-third of the Directors or the nearest multiple of three must retire from office. They can offer themselves for re-election at the next Annual General Meeting.
The Memorandum & Articles of Association allow continuing trustees to appoint additional trustees.
Trustee Recruitment, Induction and Training
Good Food Matters (GFM) have an open recruitment process.
Those who apply are asked to complete an application form. Once received, the Chair will have an informal chat then invite ANNUAL REPORTS AND ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
them to meet some of the Board and the CEO to access suitability. If agreed, they will then be appointed to the Board subject to references and checks according to our Memorandum and Articles of Association.
Candidates are asked to consider and declare any existing or potential conflicts of interest (including with related parties). As GFM works with children, young people, and vulnerable people a DBS (Disclosure and Barring) check will be required for those who meet these groups. In the light of the checks and declarations being satisfactory, the proposed Trustees will go forward for appointment.
All relevant parties such as funders, the charity's accountants are notified of the new appointments. There is no formal training programme for newly appointed trustees.
Board Meetings
The Board has a quarterly meeting format with additional meetings where necessary. Further support to the management team is provided in writing and through meetings with the Chair.
The challenge for the staff and Board is to keep the Centre up and running in accordance with GFM's aims and objectives. Our priority in the New Year will be to develop a strategy and business plan to ensure sustainability.

CHAIRS REPORT
I cannot thank the staff and volunteers enough who have supported Good Food Matters during the past year.
This year under Amandas direction the Charity is on a more secure footing and there are some exciting projects ahead such as the refugee work, elders cooking club and RHS Chealsea Flower show.
I want to record my thanks to the team for their continue support and sheer determination , Angela our Community Kitchen Manager who keeps connected with all our volunteers and learners , whilst managing the complexities of running multiple programs, always being positive and ensuring a wonderful healthy meal is available , Ben who is such a force of nature leading our MENSHED program, and being such a great ambassador for GFM and Ernesto who as always works exceptionally hard in the garden keeping everything growing and managing the site.
We could not do it without our amazing volunteers such as Colin who manages the corporate events and Donna who supports the summer programs and many more!
Somehow the charity, with its supporters, managed to keep turning, and we are proud that they served the local community, responding to need swiftly and with compassion. It has highlighted what a great asset Good Food Matters is to the local community and indeed the whole borough in these times of extreme need.
We look ahead to the coming year recognising that times continue to be incredibly challenging locally with the impact of Croydon Council's financial pressures but also nationally as we all compete for funding to keep going.
ANNUAL REPORTS AND ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Thanks also to my fellow trustees, for their continued support. CAROLE SHORT, CHAIR
DIRECTORS REPORT
Hello again,
There is an incredibly positive feel as I write this, firstly I am so grateful for my amazing staff team Angela, Ben Elliott Asur and Ernesto who we could not do with out and the core volunteers and trustees who make running Good Food Matters such a privilege. Colin as always is amazing as our liaison for Corporate Volunteering and manages our amazing connections to incredible companies with amazing CSR focus which is demonstrated in our repeat bookings. This generates both unrestricted funds and much needed support on site managing the grounds. We have strong connections now with local property company SPRING and monthly volunteering and support from the very community focused COMMUNITY FIBRE. Thank you all.
Our MENSHED received continuation funding through the CCG, and we are seeing a thriving member led group develop. We were delighted to run a pilot program supporting newly arrived asylum-seeking families and funded through Reedham Children’s Trust and we look forward to working more closely with Reedham Charity and are excited that our Refugee work has been recognised by CHOOSE LOVE charity and we are developing a more focused provision. Most exciting of all is a Chelsea flower show garden in development with the awardwinning Jane Porter and the incredible CHOOSE LOVE charity and sponsored by PROJECT GIVING BACK which will enhance our program for Croydon Borough o culture that we are planning as food and nature are at the heart of all our shared culture and create a beautiful permanent garden of sanctuary here in New Addington.
ANNUAL REPORTS AND ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
The local organisations in New Addington work so well together. In a hyper competitive 3rd sector New Addington is an Oasis of harmony where we just all get on with it but can pick up the phone to share or ask for help agilely responding to local need. Croydon Council continues to face financial challenges so we will we continue to look out of borough for funding, support and partnership working across our themes of work. Our core costs, utilities, transport, and staples continue to rise so we will remain prudent, build resilience, and look forwards.

RISK AND MANAGEMENT
The Board monitors risk regularly to ensure that action is taken, or systems are in place to manage identified areas of risk. GFM continues to review its procedures and policies to ensure that they are consistent with best practices.
The charity focuses on the following major areas of risk:
Future Funding: financial sustainability is the most significant risk, and much management and trustee time is devoted to developing a pipeline of future funding.
Financial Control: Management produce regular and detailed financial statements.
ANNUAL REPORTS AND ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Fire Risk: We have a fire alarm system; a fire system contacts in place to check alarms and extinguishers bi-annually in line with guidance and a Fire Risk Assessment that is reviewed annually or sooner as required.

Health and Safety is on each Board agenda to ensure that all aspects are considered (including work in the garden and with machinery). Our Health and Safety policy including COSHH is reviewed annually.
Disclosure and Barring Checks: volunteers, staff and those trustees who are in contact with service users are subject to periodic enhanced DBS checks.
Staff and Volunteer Training: All staff and volunteers are professionally trained, and a new appraisal system is in place. Staff are all first aid and MH first aid trained. New polices for Modern Slavery and Menopause were approved by the board.
Safeguarding: Proper procedures and controls are in place to be able to identify and action instances of alleged or suspected abuse that comes to the attention of Good Food Matters. A key element of the procedures of the on-going annual training of all Trustees, Staff, and Volunteers in the Safeguarding and Protection of Young People.
COVID safety is a priority and Good Food Matters manage a Covid safe working practice partly due to our strong food hygiene and outdoor hygiene management.
The Board of Trustees regularly review reserves The reserves policy . The fixed assets are written off over the period of the Lease, over 10 years on the land at Mickleham Way.
