No trustees were appointed during the year, but the former Chair and another trustee resigned after the year-end, on 14 October 2022. The remaining Trustees have to meet to consider voting a new Chair and appointing any new trustees.

5 Financial review

5.1 Details of any funds materially in deficit

5.2 Policy on reserves

The Charity’s policy on reserves is to generate and maintain a balance which is sufficient:

• a) to preserve the financial viability of the Charity in the event that unforeseen and/or unavoidable circumstance precipitate a short-term fall in its income;

• b) to enable the Charity, in the interests of meeting its objectives, to undertake from time to time the setting up of new and innovative projects on a pilot basis to demonstrate the viability and

potential benefits of such activities as a precursor to securing the external funding necessary to maintain such projects on an on-going basis.

For these purposes the Charity will endeavour to generate and maintain reserves which are at least 0% of its annual turnover.

5.3 Principal sources of funding and outgoings

The Charity’s principal sources of funding are donations from individuals. The Trustees aim to hold annual and ad-hoc fundraising events, as well as seeking corporate sponsorship and donations.

The Charity’s outgoings will primarily be on charitable activity in line with its objects as set out in clause 2.2. The Charity seeks to be highly efficient and aims to spend less than 1% of its income on administration overhead.

5.4 Remuneration of trustees

All Trustees act in a voluntary capacity and receive no remuneration or other material benefits from their services to the Charity.

Out-of-pocket expenses necessarily and reasonably incurred by Trustees in promoting the purposes of the Charity are reimbursed at cost.

5.5 Financial status

Though modest, MEMC’s current resources from unrestricted donations are more than sufficient to meet its outgoings for at least next year.

All the indications are that this will remain the case for the foreseeable future.

5.6 Statutory statements on liabilities

The Trustees declare that:

• ✔ The Charity has given no guarantees where potential liability under the guarantee is outstanding at the date of this statement ( e.g. any outstanding/ongoing contract or legal undertaking to buy or provide specific services); and

• ✔ The Charity has no debt outstanding at the date of this statement which is owed by the CIO and which is secured by an express charge on any assets of the CIO ( e.g. a mortgage on property owned by the Charity).
