## **Broughton War Memorial Institute CIO** 

## **Trustees Report** 

Bankers HSBC Contact Information broughtonwmi@gmail.com Address Broughton War Memorial Institute Main Road Broughton Flintshire CH4 0NN 

The Trustees present their annual report with the accounts of the charity for the year ended the 31st of December 2023. 

## **THE OBJECTS OF THE CHARITY** 

The objects of Broughton War Memorial Institute CIO (here in after referred to as BWMI) are: 

The objects of the CIO are: the provision and maintenance of a village hall for the use of the inhabitants of Broughton and district without distinction of political, religious or other opinions, including use for meetings, lectures and classes and other forms of recreation and leisure time occupation, with the object of improving the conditions of life for the inhabitants. 

In planning our activities for the year, we kept in mind the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit at our Trustees meeting. 

## **GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE** 

BWMI is a charitable incorporated organisation (Foundation Structure), who’s only voting members are its Trustees, which was registered on the 7th of September 2020. The CIO shall have a Board of Trustees comprising at least three persons. New Trustees may be recruited to the board at any time by the Trustees. In selecting individuals for appointment as Trustees, the Trustees must have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the CIO. The Trustees may, by and from their number and from time to time, elect such officers e.g. chair, secretary, treasurer, as they see fit. 

The Institute Committee meet in the hall bimonthly. 



## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE IN THE YEAR** 

The Memorial Hall was provided by Gladstone Estates to be used by the residents of Broughton village for hire and recreational events. The Trustees are very pleased that the use of the hall is back to pre COVID levels. During the year the hall has been hired for birthdays parties, bingo nights, a Remembrance Day service and other activities.  These events have been well attended and we are hoping to continue to hold similar events throughout 2024. 

The regular hirers of the hall are as follows: 

Senior residents meeting each week on Wednesdays, Women's Institute meeting bimonthly on a Monday, Slimming World who meet three times per week and Dancing Gemz. The latter provides dance classes for children of all ages. There is an annex to the main hall which is provided for the use of the group. It is used most days of the week and is a really well attended provision which is greatly appreciated by the parents who take their children to the dance classes. Boxing classes which take place four times a week. The classes are very well attended. 

There is also a separate building which holds meetings for the local Scout group and there is also a separate building used by the Bowling Club, attended mostly by our senior residents. Both these facilities are well utilised. 

## **PLANS FOR THE FUTURE** 

The hall and annexes will continue to be used on a regular basis and will be available for hire for functions. 

The Committee will continue to encourage the local residents to use the facility as much as far as possible. 

The Committee will continue to hold events to raise money towards the running costs and also to help other charities in the village. 

We are in the process of applying for grants so that we can improve the toilet facilities at the institute in particular to enable easy access for people with a disability. 

Ongoing maintenance work will be carried out to ensure the buildings are kept in good running order. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

BWMI’s policy on financial reserves is to hold sufficient resources to continue the charitable activities of the BWMI should income and fundraising activities fall short. Any surplus funds which are not likely to be needed to pay for activities will be placed on deposit to earn interest. 

Furthermore, there is an ever-increasing need for us to ensure that those to whom we direct our resources are the most suitable recipient and that we continue our 



prudent management of outgoings. We need to increase these unrestricted funds in order to meet any unforeseen expenditure that may occur, for example property repairs.
