TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021
The work of the CIO is carried out entirely by volunteers.
From time to time the Club works closely with other local and national agencies, with other Lions Clubs, and with Lions International to achieve its objectives.
Management and governance arrangements
The Club is governed by its CIO document dated 27 February 2019 and by the Constitutions & Byelaws of Lions Clubs International, as revised from time to time.
The Trustees are appointed from time to time as appropriate by the members of the Club, and have overall responsibility to ensure that the Club operates in accordance with Charity Law and the Club’s CIO Document. The day-to-day running of the Club is overseen by a Board of Directors elected each year by the Members, and which forms and governs such committees as it deems appropriate for the effective running of the Club. All business of the Club is ratifies by the members in general meetings, which meetings are held at least once per month.
The Club is ably supported by the volunteer services of its members and others.
Trustees
Details of the Trustees who have served throughout the year are set out under legal and administrative information at the front of these accounts.
Community Service Activities
Activities have been restricted this year because of the Coronavirus Pandemic. We were unable to continue our normal activities but did take the sleigh out with Santa on board to cheer the children at Christmas.

Fundraising events
Father Christmas on his sleigh touring the streets and collecting, and Christmas |Hamper Raffles. The activities have been discontinued since March 2020 due to the Coronavirus outbreak.
Future Plans and Outlook
The Club plans to continue its fundraising and Community Service Activities once the danger of the current pandemic subsides. The demographic of the Club Members precludes these activities at the moment as they are mostly in the vulnerable groups.
Statement of Trustees Responsibilities
Charity Law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which show a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its financial activities for that period.
In preparing the financial statements the Trustees are required to:
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
Make sound judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements, and
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
