President's/Treasurer Report For the Year ended 30 June 2022
► Organisation Changes in the year
The treasurer Mr. Peter David Furniss was taken ill in November 2021 and was unable to continue in the role. The club appointed Martin Seymour the President of the club to act as both President and Treasurer for the year ending 30[th] June 2022. Early in 2022 the club appointed Mr. Andreas Adalian as Treasurer for the year commencing 1[st] July 2022.
► Objectives for the e-Club for South West Peninsula.
The objectives were
-
To establish a club that would be attractive to new and existing members
-
A club that would be member- led based on Rotarian principals.
-
Organisation and traditions would be set aside for members to establish.
-
Meetings and communication would use proven technology.
► Membership
By June 2020 the club had attracted 22 members and chartered on the 19[th] of June 2020. That membership declined to 18 during that first year but recovered to 22 at the start of the 2021/22 Rotary year. The e-club membership has no gender imbalance and members home addresses are representative of all parts of Devon and Cornwall.
Funding
Raising funding without impacting on traditional clubs was a significant hurdle. The pandemic adversely affected most fund raising activities but we were able to take advantage of the situation through individual members initiatives and raised funds through.
-
Establishing an annual Community Raffle for the District
-
Easyfundraising through online purchasing.
-
Working with local clubs providing resource for their programmes.
► The future.
With the e-Club established and a good mix of membership effectively representing the Peninsula, the challenge is to keep it fresh and continue its development. A number of new projects have been initiated by members that I believe will be the life blood of the Club.

Treasurer's Report
These accounts are for the second Financial Year from the 1[st] of July 2021 year through to 30[th] June 2022 for the Rotary e-Club South West Peninsula which was charted on 19th June 2020. Initially the club was only able to setup a single bank account with HSBC that accounted for both membership and charity activity.
In December 2021 an account with Lloyds was set up for charity activities with transfers from the HSBC account to separately account for the two activities. The club raised over £3,877 through a mixture of approaches and used these funds to directly support a number of good causes as can be seen in the accounts. We ended the year in a relatively healthy position, with a surplus of £2,887 and hope that we will be able to build on this in our third year.
The Club is registered as a private company limited by guarantee and as such these accounts will be submitted to Companies House. The club also registered with the Charity Commission of England and Wales on the 16[th] March 2021, number 1193829 The accounts have been examined by an independent examiner and certified by her.

Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent

State whether applicable accounting standards and recommended practice have been followed, subject to any explained departures.

► Be responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Club and for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
In as far as the trustees are aware, there is no information of which the Club's independent examiner is unaware. The trustees have taken all reasonable steps to make themselves aware of any relevant information and to establish that the independent examiner is aware of that information.
