The organisation is a Community Interest Company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 15 January 2015, and registered as a charity on 19 August 2016.

In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £2. 

Recruitment and appointment of trustees, induction and training. The trustees carry out a skills audit prior to recruiting new trustees. 

Role descriptions and job specifications are drawn up and a search programme undertaken. All new trustees are required to accept the organisation's code of conduct that contains details of the number of board meetings and the number of projects they are required to attend throughout the year. 

In addition a structured induction programme has been devised to enable trustees to more quickly understand the structure and culture of the organisation. Further training for trustees is to be considered following enlargement of the trustee body and a trustee training needs analysis. 

## **Organisational structure** 

The trustees are responsible for the overall management of the charity, its strategic direction and decision making. However, day-to-day management of treatment, non-treatment services and business services is delegated to the Chief Executive and senior management team.

## **Statement of responsibilities of the trustees** 

The trustees are required to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the group and charity and the incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure, of the charity for the year. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the companies Act 2006 and the Charity (Accounts and Records) Regulations. They are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and take reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
