## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period**
**From 1 April 2021 To 31 March 2022**
**Charity name: The Bryntail Cottage Charity**
## **Charity registration number: 1190062**
## **Objectives and Activities**
## Purpose of the charity
‘To provide in the interest of social welfare affordable accommodation and facilities for educational, recreational and other leisure time occupation for children and young persons who by reason of their youth or social and economic circumstances are in need of such facilities with the object of improving the conditions of life for such children and young persons.’
## Reporting Public Benefit
In order to fulfil our charitable purpose the charity has to restore Bryntail Cottage to a physical state to enable schools and youth groups to visit for residential activities. Therefore the principle activities conducted in this reporting period have been twofold:
1. To raise funds to enable professional building contractors to make good the schedule of work identified in the terms of the new lease.
2. To gain planning permission to enable redevelopment of the property to make it fit for purpose in the 21[st] century.
These activities are reflected in the accounts. Complimenting these activities has been a concerted effort to build up good will amongst the alumni of Bryntail Cottage. The trustees consider these activities satisfy the guidance provided by The Charity Commission surrounding delivery of public benefit.
## **Achievements and Performance**
In this reporting year the charity has achieved the following milestones:
**1.** Had our refurbishment and redevelopment plans approved by listed building control.
**2.** Raised considerable amounts of donations and grant funding to enable this work to take place.
**3.** Cleared out the buildings to enable redevelopment and refurbishment to begin once permissions are in place.
4. Appointed a new trustee with expertise in the heritage of the local area.
**Financial Review**
## Financial position as at 31[st] March 2022
The balance on the account was £165212.19 in cash. Of this £37620 is restricted for use on the redevelopment of the cottage.
In addition the charity had been awarded grants of £59500 payable in arrears.
## Reserves Policy
The charity will hold reserves sufficient to cover one year’s revenue costs.
Whilst the cottage is being refurbished this figure is £2000. The trustees will review this once the property is once again used by schools and youth groups.
## Principle Sources of Funding
Whilst the priority of the charity is refurbishing the buildings the principle sources of funding are grants and donations.
## **Structure, Governance and Management**
The charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation governed by a constitution. There are seven trustees who are appointed. Tile Cross Academy is entitled to appoint one trustee.
