The Archer Community Trust
28‐32 East Street Braintree Essex CM7 3JJ
Registered Charity Number: 1147507
Trustees’ Report for the Year Ended 30[th] June 2022
The Archer Community Trust is a charity, number 1147507, registered in England and Wales with the Charity Commission on 30[th] May 2012. The Charity is governed by the constitution adopted by its Trustees in May 2012, amended on 9[th] February 2017.
The board consisted of five trustees supporting the ethos of the Charity, its aims and objectives during the financial year 1[st] July 2021 to 30[th] June 2022:
P Archer K Brown A Hensman S Smith D Thompson
All Trustees take their roles in the Charity very seriously, updating their knowledge throughout the year and fulfilling their individual roles based on their skills, community involvement and work and volunteer experience. The Trustees’ functions include ensuring the continuation of robust and relevant financial practices.
The objectives and aims of the Charity are, to provide a hirable facility, to enhance residents’ lives and to fundraise and gain sponsorship to provide equipment and aid to those in need. The Charity has three principal areas of activity to achieve these: hiring out facilities to businesses and not‐for‐ profit groups, supporting community‐focused organisations and activities, and providing aid and equipment benefiting residents throughout Braintree and Bocking.
The trustees confirm they refer to the Charity Commission’s general guidance to ensure the Trust remains solely for public benefit, and continue to take direction from the Rural Community Council of Essex (RCCE) during reviews, as well as in planning future activities and projects.
During 2021/2022 we were able to gain additional funding from the Essex County Council Winter Resilience Fund to provide sand and salt, wheelbarrows and shovels for residents to use in areas not covered by gritting lorries.
The Braintree Fund, a working project of the Trust, has gone from strength to strength over the year, receiving funding from sponsorship, donations and activities in order to fulfil its commitment to giving back to the local community. This included funding for a local family who lost their home and possessions in a fire, and providing four further community publicly accessible defibrillators across Braintree, with funding from one of the Essex County Councillors whose division the Charity covers.
The Trustees of The Archer Community Trust thank their supporters and hirers for their work and support during the past year.
