Governing Document:
Ripon Choral Society Constitution
Recruitment of Trustees:
The society has a formal policy for the recruitment and rotation of trustees which forms section 36 of the constitution.
Objects & Public Benefit of Ripon Choral Society :
The objects of the CIO are, for the public benefit, to educate the public in the art and science of choral music and to promote, develop, and maintain appreciation of choral music in all its aspects by the presentation of public concerts, and by such other ways as the CIO through its committee shall determine from time to time.
Activities and Achievements:
The Society was unable to perform any concerts or hold any face to face rehearsals in the 2020-21 season due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
We did however continue to rehearse together using online Zoom rehearsals run by our Musical Director, John Dunford. These rehearsals proved very popular and allowed the choir to function and continue to provide a community for members. Many of the members kindly continued their membership and made a financial contribution to the ongoing functioning of the Society regardless of whether they attended online rehearsals.
The Society's financial position remains strong and in a good position to deliver its objectives going forward.
The charity holds a healthy balance of reserves which are held in order to protect the charity and allow continued operations should we face any adverse financial conditions in the future. Furthermore, the charity's sound financial position will allow an ambitious and exciting programme of concerts in the coming years.
Declaration
The Trustees have approved the Trustees' Report above.

Ripon Choral Society Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Ripon Choral Society
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 July 2021 set out on pages three to five.
Responsibilities and Basis of Report
As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
