TRUSTEE REPORT

One Voice Immingham District (CIO) Annual General Meeting – 2025

Introduction

The work of One Voice continues to be of significant benefit to the community, actively making a difference across a wide range of areas. Over the past year, we have seen substantial achievements and positive impact. However, as a forward-thinking charity, we remain committed to continual growth and improvement to better serve our community.

Governance and Trustees

We currently have seven Trustees:

After 14 years of service, Elaine Norton stepped down as Trustee in March 2025. We thank her for her dedication and are pleased that she continues to support One Voice in her role as Project Manager .

Trustee meetings are now held quarterly (previously monthly) on the second Tuesday of each month at 6:30 PM at the Civic Centre on Pelham Road. Attendance aligns with Charity Commission guidelines.

Partnerships and Community Representation

We continue to be deeply grateful to the many partner organisations who support our work. Their collaboration has been essential in fostering community growth and in co-delivering projects and services. Our success is a reflection of these partnerships – together, we are stronger.

One Voice has ongoing monthly representation at several local forums:

Through these partnerships, we’ve enhanced community engagement, saved vital services from being withdrawn, and created opportunities by shaping provisions based on need.

Elaine Norton continues to represent Immingham, Habrough, and Stallingborough at these forums, ensuring local voices are heard and considered in wider community development discussions.

Financial Overview

Our financial position remains strong, largely due to continued support from the National Lottery Community Fund , enabling our core project delivery through to 2026. We operate without liabilities and allocate all funds for specific, grant-approved purposes. Additional funding has been gained from the local Authority for specific projects.

Additional Information:

While we do not currently operate with a formal reserves policy, One Voice maintains limited earmarked funds that can be accessed as contingency reserves if required. These funds *** are designated for specific project purposes as agreed by our Board of Trustees, but remain available to cover essential liabilities or unforeseen costs where necessary. This approach ensures we retain a degree of financial resilience while prioritising responsible stewardship of our resources. We recognised as an organisation that we need to strengthen our reserves and are currently exploring options to enable us to develop a suitable reserve funding pot for the organisation and its needs
