STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Organisational Structure and Governance
Netherthong Community Partnership is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, which was registered with the Charity Commission on 2[nd] July 2019. It is governed by the Foundation Model Constitution which was adopted on 28[th] June 2019.
Recruitment and appointment of new Trustees
-
(1) Apart from the first charity trustees, every trustee must be appointed for a term of three years by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the charity trustees.
-
(2) In selecting individuals for appointment as charity trustees, the charity trustees must have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the CIO.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives
The objects of Netherthong Community Partnership are:
To further or benefit the residents of the village of Netherthong and surrounding areas, without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other opinions by associating together the said residents and the local authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation with the objective of improving the conditions of life for the residents.
In furtherance of these objects but not otherwise, the trustees shall have power:
To establish or secure the establishment of a community centre and to maintain or manage or co-operate with any statutory authority in the maintenance and management of such a centre for activities promoted by the charity in furtherance of the above objects.
Significant activities
We continue to work towards our goal of creating a community centre for the whole community, this has been somewhat hindered by the COVID pandemic and delayed by the multiple permissions needed to develop a Grade 2 listed place of worship which is almost 200 years old. We need to respect the legislation and traditions as we develop such a significant project. More groups are now using the building, with its current limitations, such as the local theatre group; a very positive relationship which we hope will continue long into the future.

Public benefit statement________________
The Trustees confirm that when planning the activities of the charity they have regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The latter half of 2021 has seen us a lot freer to pursue our goals than the previous 12 months did. Although COVID is still a significant issue, it has not been as restricting as the previous year. We have been well supported by local fund raising such as the ‘Harvest Home’ at the Clothiers pub and we will be running a Christmas Fair in late November.
Volunteers have worked hard in the church yard and in significant tasks such as painting the church railings and repairing the church yard wall. The fundraising team continues to work extremely effectively. We could not operate without the amazing generosity of these and other volunteers.
Our architects PPIY have drawn up significant plans in 4 phases of works. Plans were submitted to Leeds diocese and to various statutory bodies such as English Heritage and the Victorian Society. Having received feedback we are now finalising a revision of those plans with a view to undertaking Phase A in the first part of 2022. As previously noted, there are legal processes we must adhere to in order to receive permission to put our plans into operation. Determination and no little patience will see the NCP achieve our goals for the good of the local community.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
In the current year the net receipts amounted to £204, all of which related to unrestricted funds. Expenditure in the year amounted to £4,180 of which £3,335 related to unrestricted funds the main items of expenditure being: £2,400 for a feasibility study to All Saints Church PCC (and in turn forwarded to PPIY Ltd Architects) and £400 on additional architect’s fees.
Reserves policy
The charity has not adopted a formal reserves policy as it considers that there are no actual or foreseeable circumstances when such a reserve would be needed.
