**TRUSTEES** ’ **ANNUAL REPORT for the financial year ended 30 June 2023** 

**Structure:** Yelverton Community Projects is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation  (charity registration number 1177230).  Its registered address is 12 Willowby Park, Yelverton, PL20 6AN and Its objectives are: 

“To relieve the needs of the elderly and to promote for the benefit of the inhabitants of the civil parishes of Buckland Monachorum and Burrator the provision of facilities for recreation or other leisure time occupation of individuals who have need of such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disablement, financial hardship or social and economic circumstances or for the public at large in the interests of social welfare and with the object of improving the condition of life of the said inhabitants.” 

It currently has three operating arms: YelverCare, Yelverton Cinema and Yelverton Play Park. Trustees are responsible for the overall management of the charity and separate committees exist to support each of the three operating arms. 

**Trustees:** There are a maximum of ten trustees.  The following have served throughout the last financial year: 

Ric Cheadle - Chairman Fiona Burbage - Secretary Tony Chilvers -Treasurer Mike Pike - Yelvercare Manager Graham Brown - Play Park Manager Randall Williams – retired 21[st] June 2023 Maddy Carr - Charity Commission link & Play Park Lottery Chris Taylor - Insurance Sam Whitehead - Cinema Manager Darren Foley - Website & Design Andrew Thomas 

Recruiting of trustees is done in a way that maintains a three-part structure.  Three trustees are Officers, three trustees are the nominee of each of the three operating arms and four trustees are “non-executive” trustees.  The trustees responsible for the three operating arms are:

## **Chairman’s Annual Report 2023** 

Once again, I have the pleasure of reporting on the Charity’s activities. Yelvercare has continued to provide assistance to those within the community who request it through its network of volunteers who both man the phone line to receive requests for help and step up to deliver the range of services required. It is fair to say that in these ‘post covid’ times, it is increasingly difficult to maintain volunteer numbers but the Committee is working on a range of initiatives to hopefully ensure the service can thrive. Yelvercare tasks now number around 40 each month and a total mileage of over 600 miles. The Lunch Club continues to be popular and the charity is fortunate indeed to have such a willing team to make it so. 

The Cinema continues to put on a programme of ‘recent releases’ and host the popular option for those attending to bring food & drink to have before the screening. Attendance varies and the volunteer team are always looking to select those films likely to attract the largest audiences. 

The Play Park continues to be immensely popular. The project to rejuvenate the toddler area within the park has moved ahead with planning permission being granted and a contract has been awarded to a local company, Green Schemes. Funding applications by Randall Williams has been hugely successful and, together with a substantial bequest and S106 funding, only a relatively small contribution will be required from our core funds. It is hoped that the project (expected to cost £79,125 in total) will be complete by early summer 2023. So, the Charity remains in ‘good shape’ thanks again to our wonderful volunteers and Trustees. 

## **Financial review** 

Accounts for the financial year show a surplus of £6,464.  YelverCare’s surplus of £2,424 benefitted from a donation from The Maristow Trust to help with providing cold weather meals and higher Interest Received.  Yelverton Cinema had a small deficit of £131.  Redevelopment of part of The Yelverton Play Park started after substantial grants were received from other charities and an initial payment was made to the contractor; overall it shows a surplus of £2,365 in the year. A major bequest was received in July 2023 which will fund a large part of the development costs. 

It is recognised that a charity should not hold unnecessary reserves.  However, the play park will require substantial refurbishment costs in due course and it is the trustees’ policy to hold sufficient reserves to cover those costs without having to depend on external sources of funding. Trustees review the level of reserves every year in June and decided to maintain a contingency reserve of £5,000 in YelverCare, £5,000 in Yelverton Cinema and £30,000 in Yelverton Play Park.
