Reserve Policy, Investment Policy and Risk Management
The Trustees review the Reserves of the Charity on a regular basis and consider these are
adequate to ensure the continuation of Our Aims
These are lo have sufficient Cash Reserves in order lo maintain sufficient working capital for
the Charity lo operate for a minimum of 12 months from the date of signing of this Report,
together with a Capital Cash Reserve sum (presently £SO,0001 to act as a "Bufferf, or lo be used
for any sizeable project that may fall within Ihe remit of Our Charity
At the year end our major investments were held in property, with two of these generating
sufficient net rental income to fund day lo day running costs. This policy is reviewed on a
regular basis.
Currently we have no Stock Exchangelcharity Commission type investments but again this
policy is kepl under review.
The Trustees regularly consider the major risks to which the Charity is exposed and consider
that these are mitigated via the Governance of our Board of Trustees which has suitable
knowledge and experien￿ of the field in which we operate.
Chaimian's Review of Activities and Developments
I would like lo thank two longstanding trustees, Liz Kirkland and Ken Irvin, who slood down this
year, for all they have contributed to BH. Kim Ford and Dave Robbins have nowjoined us and I
would like to thank all the trustees for their continuing support and hard work.
Thanks also to Dawn, James and all the volunteers for the hard work they put in and the
pleasant atmosphere that they help to create within the Hub.
The Molly Coombe Memorial Event featured an entertaining evening with Viv Wilson and her
montages of still and video footage of events in Bishopsleignton over the years. As part of this
evening prizes were awarded to the winners of the Molly Coombe Photographic competition.
The 1st Bishopsteignlon Scouts assisted wth the teas and coffees and donations from the
audience were added lo their coffers.
On the 30th November I was invited to take the Bishopsteignton Primary school assembly
which celebrated the 50th anniversary of the opening of the 'new' school. This took the form of
a PowerPoint presentation which hopefully encoLJraged the children to think about how different
school would have been 50 years ago.

to follow thè procedures laid down in the General Diredions given by the Charity
Commission under sections 145{5)Ibl of the Act, and
to slate whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiners Report
My examination was carried out in accordan￿ with general directions given by the Charity
Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity
and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration
of any unusual items or disclosures in Ihe accounts, and seeking explanations from you as
trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the
evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether
the accounts present a 'true and fair, view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the
statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examinalion, no matter has come to my attention..
which gives me reasonable cause lo believe that in, any material respect, the requirements..
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act, and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the
accounting
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding
of the accounts to be reached.
