The trustees are informally connected to other community organisations within the village and to the parish council. The Baptist Church, which historically provided trustees under the predecessor trust, continues to facilitate meetings of the CIO committee.

Priority was placed on ensuring safe access. The CIO reacted promptly to a dangerous tree which was felled and removed by a contractor.

Section E Financial review

Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves

The CIO's reserves, which are not large all things considered, are viewed as potentially necessary for future substantial capital expenditure once the extension comes into use to create fitting ambiance for that area.

Details of any funds materially in deficit

There are no funds in deficit.

Further financial review details (Optional information)

The chief recurrent source of funds is the grant made equally to the Parish Church (for the churchyard) and to the CIO by Cottenham Parish Council of funds received by the Council from the civil purposes part of the Cottenham Church and Causeway Charity. Additional funding is occasionally available from the Ebenezer Trust, which includes maintenance of the Cemetery among its explicit objects. Other funding comes from fees for interments and monuments. Funding from the Ebenezer Trust has been used for particular maintenance matters.

You may choose to include additional information, where relevant about:

The 2020 grant from the Parish Council was delayed into 2021 due to a misunderstanding and technical difficulty. Due to the pandemic the Ebenezer Trust did not meet to consider our application.
