Annual Report for the period 20 June 2025- 19 June 2026
The board of trustees present the trustees annual report for the above period and
includes the accounts for the charity.
The report Is required for the charity commission and covers our activities and
financial position
We still enjoy the patronage of Lord Watts of Ravenhead and Marie Rimmer CBE
MP.
David Baines MP accepted our invitation to be a patron, replacing Conor McGinn.
Martin Bond has stood down as a trustee because of work commitments and now
supports us as a patron. We welcome Mr John Hodkinson appointed as trustee to
replace Mr Bond. The trustees thank Mr Bond for his service
We held our annual service of remembrance in April attended by members of the
public and many local dignitaries. The service was a great success
At the beginning of the year our grant application was looking good with several
applications in the pipeline, but these proved unsuccessful and we have been pledged
money only to be let down.
Its been a disappointing year for us regarding fundraising. Money is tight at present
and donations have all but dried up. We expect the situation to improve in the
foreseeable future. We are still enrolled to the Give as You Live scheme and this is
producing a small amount of funding
At present we are running at a loss and our expenditure exceeds our income, but we
have enough cash in the bank to see us through the next year and beyond. There is no
risk that we will run out of cash, our main overhead is insurance and this is fully in
our control. We are still able to function as norn]al and fulfil all our commitments.
The trustees still give their time for free, we employ no staff, do not rent or own any
property nor do we plan to borrow any money or overdraw the bank account.
At present we don't see any reason to alter how the charity is run or adjust it's cash
flow, we will carefully monitor the situation and give consideration and carefully cost
any project before we commit to spend
The situation is not too concerning, we will make every effort to turn the tide and
continue to apply for grant funding. We are in a fortunate position having Unite the

Union St Helens as our main sponsor
We continue to use the services of the Coop bank, deposits are covered by the
Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
As of 1910612025 we had £10,131.76, at the bank.
As of the 19106/2026 we had £9,715.56, at the bank.
Our outgoings for the period 1910612026 -1610612026 was £433.72
Our income £18.26
We still intend to further improve the site of the statue and at the same time enhance
the security in the area by installing lighting to the statue
We have installed a bleed kit in the defibrillator storage cabinet and registered it with
the North West Ambulance Service. The kit was donated by a local business S￿ve
Caunce Ltd
We intend, moving forward, to push for workers memorial day to be included in the
national school curriculum intending to get Workers Memorial more of a main stream
occasion and less of a niche thing
We are still in a position to deliver defibrillator traÉning and take lectures into schools
and colleges.
At present we are trying to encourage high school students to take part in the Workers
Memorial service of remembrance
By submitting this report the Trustees approve the accounting and reporting of the
charity and agree this is an accurate account of the financial health, future aspirations
and past activities of the charity.
