## The Male Journey 

A Charitable Incorporated Organisation 

Registration Number: 1163767 

Trustees Annual Report for the 12 months to 28[th] February 2022 

## Change of Structure 

On 7[th] December 2021 the organisation converted from a Company Limited by Guarantee/Registered Charity to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation. 

## Trustees 

The trustees who served during the year were: 

Kevin McNally (chair) David Townsend Peter Bruckenwell Martin Honeywell Christopher O’Donnell Francis Rothery (appointed 29/12/21) Mark Thornthwaite (resigned 11/12/21) 

## Income and Expenditure 

Overall TMJ recorded a surplus of £1,541 for the year, primarily reflecting a strong result from the 2021 MROP and associated bursary contributions. 

## _Donations_ 

Donations net of bursary awards amounted to £1,301, made up largely of the following: 

Regular donations of £360 from two men throughout the year (one feeding into the general reserve and one into the bursary reserve) 

£64 from the Amazon Smile scheme 

£219 Gift Aid claim from HMRC 

£273 from 8 men to the Bursary Fund for the Young Men’s Rites as part of the Men Behaving Vulnerably event 

£1,195 to the bursary fund from 9 MROP participants 

## _Offset by:_ 

A bursary award of £575 to assist 2 MROP participants 

A bursary award of £250 to assist 3 Moot participants 

## _Events_ 

The MROP in 2021 generated a surplus of £1,625 in addition to the net bursary increase mentioned above. 



The Moot in 2021 recorded a loss of £455 in addition to the bursary award above.  This was mainly due to number of participants not being high enough to cover the minimum charge from Duke’s Barn. 

Sales of poetry books after relevant costs generated a surplus of £110. 

Development activity of £200 was funded from the development reserve, relating to a contribution to Way of Council training for two men for the benefit of their local groups. 

## _Operating Expenses_ 

Operating expenses totalled £847 made up mainly of insurance, website and Zoom costs. 

## Assets and Liabilities 

The year began with total reserves of £13,718 which increased to £15,259 by the end of the year due to the activities described above. 

Cash held by TMJ across Triodos and PayPal increased from £15,466 to £16,815. 

Other assets at 28[th] February 2022 consist of: 

- £416 of prepayments, ie payments made which relate to future events or services. 

   - £100 of deposits paid relating to the Stokers event and the Moot 

   - the remainder reflects the portion of annual payments made up front for insurance, website and Zoom costs which relate to next financial year 

- £826 of book stocks which reflects 236 poetry books at a cost of £3.50 each.  This is recognised as cost as and when book sales are made. 

Liabilities consist of: 

- £2,798 of cash received from men booked onto the 2022 Stokers and MROP events. This is being held on the balance sheet until the events take place, at which point it will be recognised as income. 

## Reserves 

Viewing the assets and liabilities of TMJ through the lens of the various reserves held we can see the overall surplus of £1,541 for the year represented as follows: 

||**28-Feb-2021**|**28-Feb-2022**|**Change**|
|---|---|---|---|
|General Reserve|10,713|11,510|797|
|BursaryReserve|1,940|2,885|945|
|Development Reserve|1,065|865|(200)|
|**Total Reserves**|**13,718**|**15,259**|**1,541**|



General donations, events and book sales comfortably covered the operating costs leaving a £797 surplus. 

Generous donations to the bursary fund allowed for a £945 increase even after assisting 5 men to attend events during the year. 

Finally the assistance given to 2 men to attend Way of Council training can be seen as a utilisation from the Development Fund.
