trust actively fi￿draiSeS to obtain fifftds to continuc its work.
Thc financial statements for the CIO present the combined asscts. liabilitics and funds of the
two legal cntities as though thcy have always been part of the same organisation.
The Trustees consider this approach provides a clear comparative of the financial a¢tivitics
and financial position with pr¢vious reporting periods and we believ¢ it is appropriate
because..
the CIO was forn]ed expressly lo tske over the work of the Charity.
the two entitics hai'e thc same namc and address and are party to the same organisation.
therc is no significant change to the beneficiaries, purposes, or control of the
organisation.
according to indq)endent Icgal advice: property, including funds, prNryously held on
behalf of the Charity became vest¢d in the CIO on registration under the CharitlC5 Act
2011 section 210(2): and
to separdtcly dctcnninc which entity was receiving or consuming funds would present
an incomplete view of thc charitable activities for the year.

ex otTicio. Thc clected membcrs are elected at the Annual General Mccling and serve for up
to the maximum terni of six years.
