If the CIO is wound up, the members of the CIO have no liability to contribute to its assets and no personal responsibility for settling its debts and liabilities.

## **Appointment of Trustees**
In accordance with the terms of the constitution, there must be at least three charity trustees. If the number falls below the minimum, the remaining trustees can act only to call a meeting of the trustees or appoint a new trustee.
The charity trustees may not appoint any charity trustee if as a result the number of charity trustees would exceed the maximum.
Each new trustee is given a copy of the constitution and the latest trustees’ annual report and accounts, on or before appointment.

## **FIRST HOPE FAMILIES**
Year Ended 31[st] March 2021
## **Achievements**
We were unable to do any activities as the bank closed our account due to lack of activity during the pandemic.
Also, key members of the charity were unwell to run the organisation.
Some voluntary supports were provided, such as attending network meetings and keeping in touch with the community needs.
Hence our charity would be considered dormant in this year.
## **Future plan**
We aim to re-start our charity by re-opening a bank account which is taking time to process.
Signed on behalf of all members,
Samantha Berthier Trustee 22/06/2023
