Present:  Tim Norriss, Catharine Gale and Rachel Hardy 

2. Charity Status 

   - Existing Trustees 

      - Tim’s tenure as trustee expires on 5 Feb 2022 

      - Catharine Gale and Rachel Hardy tenures expire on 3 September 2023 

      - More trustees needed – TN to ask Keith Betton if he can recommend anyone. Other names put forward – Tristan Norton, Bob Lord, Anthony & Linda Mollison. 

   - Annual Report and return 

      - TN confirmed this doesn’t require auditing and next return is due by the end of October 2022 submitted online. 

   - Finance and grants 

      - The bank balance in the a/c on 21 Nov 2021 was £6,099, (previously £ 3,548 at end of Aug 2020). 

      - A grant has been received from Waitrose of £333. 

      - The cost of boxes has gone up to £35 supply and fix, or £40 per painted box. We now no longer receive a donation from Roger for each box due to increased cost of materials. So we will now rely on grants from HOS, Waitrose etc, plus sales and donations for income. Whilst nearly all people pay for the boxes put up on their houses HS do pay for some boxes if the house can’t afford the cost. Boxes requested by Councils eg Winchester and Southampton are paid for by those councils but boxes put up on churches or community buildings (eg Abbotts Ann shop) are paid for from HS funds. A further 20 boxes at the Hospital of St Cross + call player will also be a further significant expense paid for by HS. It is expected that our funds will substantially reduce over the next 12 months as we catch up on the backlog of church boxes and St Cross. 

      - In addition the charity owns a number of Minstead and other boxes plus call attraction systems. 

      - Catharine Gale is to be added as signatory to the charity bank account with Lloyds – TN. 

   - Insurance 

      - This was allowed to expire due to Covid restricting our activities. TN has now been renewed with next renewal on 9 July 2022, to cover us for Public Liability at talks and events, with Unity Insurance – Ansvar Charity Protect.

## 3. Achievements 2021 

- Planning 

   - Catharine leads on this after departure of AB. 

   - Discussion took place on changing focus to concentrate on Local Plans and ensuring their wording stipulates the use of integral Swift bricks in new dwellings. 

   - Perhaps also piggy back on other groups like Climate Change Groups or other Species Groups. Talk to Tristan Norton / Nicky Court at HBIC. 

- Surveying 

   - BL has surveyed the estate in New Milton and this has gone on the website blog. 

   - CG, RH & Caroline Hill have covered Highcliffe, Winchester. CG has also covered much of the remainder of Winchester. 

   - ▪ Hospital of St Cross has been surveyed by checking boxes. There are now 8 nesting pairs this year (up from 2 last year) + 2 other boxes occupied by young birds. 

   - Lots of other sites need to be checked following putting up of many boxes. 

      - Regents Park, Southampton – Ron Cooke 

      - Lee-on-Solent 

      - Luzborough, Romsey 

      - Alresford 

      - Stockbridge 

      - Broughton 

      - ▪ Ropley ▪ N Baddesley ▪ Kilmeston + Beauworth ▪ Southsea – Dave Warner ▪ Cosham 

      - Eastleigh 

      - Lower Froyle 

   - More surveyors needed 

- Records 

   - We have just over 190 nesting records for this year which TN will load onto website and submit to HBIC 

- Boxes installed  - Approx 495 boxes have been installed in Hants so far this year plus 200 outside Hants. 

- Church projects – 

   - Ringwood – inspection of the internal boxes has shown no occupation as yet but this may be due to the fact that a Peregrine has taken to sitting on a pinnacle this summer overlooking the entrances. 

   - Winchester Cathedral – 20 internal boxes were installed with help from a grant by BOTB last winter. One pair has nested this year with another box having the start of a nest. 

   - ▪ Various other church projects are in progress. 

      - Ropley Church

4. Social Media and Website 

   - Claire Thorpe has taken over from Lauran Carter and been doing a great job 

   - putting things on Twitter and also loading any blogs that are sent to her onto the website. She also puts these onto Twitter and TN then loads onto Facebook. 

   - The website is hosted by Wix and the annual hosting fee auto-renews from 

   - HS account. TN has access password etc. 

   - TN/CG have details of how to update Google Drive survey map and data 

7. The future 

   - The most pressing issues are to get more people involved especially for Planning review and organisation of box installation including churches. And more Trustees are required – all.
