## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period** **From 1[st] April 2022 To 31[st] March 2023** **Charity name: Enterprise Junction** ## **Charity registration number: 1178489** ## **Objectives and Activities** ||SORP reference|| |---|---|---| |Summary of the purposes of
the charity as set out in its
governing document|Para 1.17|At Enterprise Junction we specialise in
helping people with additional barriers
become self-employed or start a business
to transform their lives. Not only do we
provide business support, but we help build
the confidence and self-esteem of our
clients which is essential for them to
flourish. Our business coaches and
mentors understand the barriers that our
clients face and we use tried and tested
techniques to help them overcome the
many inner challenges they can come up
against. We are aware that mainstream
business support is either too expensive or
not fit for purpose for our client group and
so we work with selected organisations and
partners to provide and facilitate the
training and support required to help
individuals empower their lives. We work
through our partners to support offenders,
ex-offenders, long term unemployed and
others who have experienced barriers to
starting their own business. We also run
enterprise programmes for young people,
have a dedicated women’s business
adviser and a unique management
development programme for corporate
clients.| |Summary of the main
activities in relation to those
purposes for the public

activities, projects or
services identified in the

we empower participants from our courses
and other underrepresented groups
through self-esteem workshops. We equip
them with the knowledge that ‘they are
good enough’ and give them the platform to
realise their aspirations.
With the above we were able to develop
our programme, connect with local charities
and deliver our workshop to them. We| worked with The Brighton’s Women Centre, St Peters Brighton and Just Life. We partner with Brighton’s Women.

compassion for others”

trustees in order to gain specific skills and
experience that are needed to help run the

The trustees agree what skills, experience
and knowledge are needed and create a
job description and person specification.
The trustees agree responsibilities and a
process for recruitment. Some of the work
may be delegated to a sub-group of
trustees, but the whole trustee board
remains in full control of the process and
decisions.
Disqualification
You must not act as a trustee if you are
disqualified under the Charities Act, unless
your disqualification has been waived by
the Commission. Reasons for
disqualification include if you:
•Disqualified as a company director
•Have an unspent conviction for an
offence involving dishonesty or deception
(such as fraud)
•Are an undischarged bankrupt (or subject
to sequestration in Scotland), or have a
current composition or arrangement
including an individual voluntary
arrangement (IVA) with your creditors
•Have been removed as a trustee of any
charity by the Commission (or the court)
because of misconduct or mismanagement
•Are on the sex offenders’ register
**What happens if a disqualified person**
**becomes a trustee?**
If a disqualified person is not able to act as
a trustee their appointment will be ended.
This is a legal requirement.
**When, and how, new trustees are**
**appointed**| The trustees consider the best methods of attracting a diverse range of candidates with the skills the charity needs. This may include advertising in; • Local or specialised press • Social media • Trustee recruitment websites • People who already support the charity • Local universities, colleges or their student union • Trustee brokerage services Short-listing and interviews take place against the agreed criteria. Interviews are carried out by a small panel of trustees, and each candidate is asked similar questions to ensure a fair and objective approach. Notes are kept for each interview. Preferred candidates are identified and invited to join the trustees, subject to references, formal vetting and approval by the full trustee board. Unsuccessful candidates are notified and thanked for their interest. **Vetting potential trustees** The trustees check that the candidates have not been disqualified from acting as trustees, and candidates are asked to confirm in writing that this is the case. Candidates are asked to consider and declare any existing or potential conflicts of interest. If the charity works with children or adults at risk, the trustees seek any appropriate checks from the Disclosure and Barring Service. In the light of the checks and declarations, the trustees decide to go ahead and formalise the appointment of new trustees. **Making the appointment** The trustees check that they appoint the new trustees in a proper and legal way, using this document as guidance. The Chair of the charity writes to the prospective trustees, setting out their duties and the charity’s expectations of them; they are asked to sign and return a copy of the letter. An information pack about the charity is sent to new trustees, and a full induction process arranged. New trustees meet existing trustees and others involved with the charity, such as members of staff, volunteers and beneficiaries. The new trustees attend their first board meeting and are duly welcomed. All relevant parties, such as funders and the charity’s solicitors and auditors, are notified of the new appointment ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: Policies and procedures adopted for the induction Para 1.51 and training of trustees The charity’s organisational structure and any wider Para 1.51 network with which the charity works w Para 1.51 Other ## **Reference and Administrative details** |Charity name|Enterprise Junction| |---|---| |Other name the charity uses|| |Registered charity number|1178489| |Charity’s principal address|Preston Park House South Road Brighton BN1 6SB| ||| **Names of the charity trustees who manage the charity** |1
