REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS' FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2025
The Trustees of Our Mynachdy Community (OMC) present their report and the audited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30th September 2024. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland published in October 2019.
Trustees of the Charity
The directors of the charitable company are its trustees for the purposes of charity law. The trustees who have served during the year and since the year end are detailed in the Charity Reference and Administrative Details.
There are no custodian trustees, and the charitable company does not act as custodian trustees for others.
Objectives and Activities
With the approval of the Charity Commission the Objects of the company set out in its Articles of Association were amended at a Special General Meeting on 23rd September 2021 and may now be summarised as:
• Bringing together the residents of Mynachdy and the surrounding neighbourhood, working with the local authority and other organisations, in an effort to advance education and 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;
• For the public benefit, the prevention or relief of poverty by providing: items and services to individuals in need, or working with other organisations working to prevent or relieve poverty.
The company seeks to achieve and deliver on the above aims through the establishment, maintenance, and management of a community centre. This is the main vehicle for delivery.
The “defined area of benefit” lies in the Cardiff electoral wards of Gabalfa and Llandaff North broadly covering the Lower Super Output Areas (LSOA) LDN03 and GAB02 together with the surrounding LSOAs, GAB01, LDN01 and LDN04.
Mynachdy is a somewhat isolated community, straddling the boundary between the Gabalfa and Llandaff North electoral wards, split by the Eastern Avenue bypass. The two LSOAs LDN03 and GAB02 are connected by a bridge. Local bus services were withdrawn in GAB02 some years ago leaving many isolated and unable to access key services.
Need within the LSOAs is evidenced in the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation (WIMD). This ranks LSOAs LDN03 and GAB02, respectively 467 and 985 out of the 1909 LSOAs in Wales (where 1 is the most deprived and 1909 the least deprived).
LDN03 is
- 466 out of 1909 LSOAs for Income placing it among the 20-30% most deprived; · 577 out of 1909 LSOAs for Health placing it among the 30-40% most deprived; · 226 out of 1909 LSOAs for Education placing it among the 10-20% most deprived; · 322 out of 1909 LSOAs for Housing placing it among the 10-20% most deprived.
GAB02 is
-
252 out of 1909 LSOAs for Education, placing it among the 10-20% most deprived;
-
835 out of 1909 LSOAs for Community Safety, placing it among the 30-50% most deprived;
-
85 out of 1909 LSOAs for Housing, placing it among the 10% most deprived;
-
447 out of 1909 LSOAs for its local Environment, placing it among the 20-30% most deprived.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS' (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2025
Our Mynachdy Community (OMC) as the charity, will continue to use the community centre, as the main vehicle to deliver the following aims to the community:
• Promote and encourage recreational and leisure time activities, in particular, to improve the quality of life of group vulnerable on account of youth, age, infirmity or disability, poverty, or social and economic circumstances, for example by countering loneliness and that feeling of being an outsider, helping vulnerable people make friends;
• Provide space for local advice sessions on housing rights, welfare benefits and debt, and in the longer run establish a venue for training designed to improve employability skills.
The Trustees raise funds through hire of the community centre to charitable, not for profit and commercial organisations (including individual hire for private celebrations) always providing that the predominant activity at the community is charitable.
The Trustees are aware of the legal obligation to ensure the purposes of the charity satisfy the "public benefit requirement" set out in the Charities Act. They confirm that they have regard to the guidance issued from time to time on this by the Charity Commission. They believe that all the activities described in the report improve the quality of life of a wide section of the public sufficient to meet the charitable test and are self-evidently beneficial. They believe that all these activities do not give rise to more than incidental personal benefit and pass the "public benefit requirement" test.
Achievements and Performance
The Annual General Meeting of the Charity was not held by 15th February 2024 as per OMC articles due to serious doubts regarding continued existence of OMC Charity because the dispute with Cardiff Council regarding the renewal of the Lease on Our Mynachdy Community Hall. This in tum affected the renewal of the membership.
Holding a club or charity AGM is no longer a legal requirement in the Companies Act (for charitable companies) but, OMC articles until they are amended require AGM's to be held in each subsequent year and not more than fifteen months may elapse between successive annual general meetings.
On 26 July 2023, Russell-Cooke Charity Solicitor representing OMC, received email from Cardiff Council agreeing to the 45-year lease, details to be worked through Heads of Tenns.
The draft Heads of Terms sent by the council early October 2023 and after approximately 4 months negotiations between the council and OMC trustees with the advice from our solicitor, the Heads of· Terms were agreed 30/01/2024.
The lease was completed and made legally binding on 30/05/2024. The lease therefore expires 30/05/2069.
The board of trustees therefore remained as the following:
Odeng Charles Namurach - Chair, Sharon Robinson - Vice Chair, Iris Namurach - Secretary, Michael Buck - Treasurer, and Lynda Buck - Bookkeeper.
The Board I Committee decided on the following priorities:
· No major repairs to the building have been possible because the committee was still operating under licence and as such unable to apply for improvement grants until a relevant lease is signed with Cardiff Council. Now that the new 45-year lease has been granted, arrange a meeting with Cardiff Council regeneration department to discuss a section 106 funding in order to effect repairs to the building.
· 10/10/2024 met with representatives from the council and discussed the following: Possible improvements to the building to include:
A new kitchen, New double-glazed windows, A new ceiling in the hall, Toilet improvements, including baby changing facilities, Improvements to the access ramp, Security improvements (e.g. cameras), Mending/ sanding/ sealing the floor.
£47K of Section 106 funding is available to spend on improving the centre for the benefit of the community.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS' (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2025
· Committee to decide which improvements are a priority. Arrange quotes for the top priority improvements (at least 3 for each - itemised). Committee to contact the council to advise how we would like to spend the £47K of available funding. If Cardiff Council is happy for the funding to be allocated to these improvements, a formal funding offer letter will be sent to OMC.
· A Section 106 Funding formal offer letter dated 14/11/2024. The letter confirmed that Cardiff Council has allocated £47,518.50 towards improvements to Mynachdy Community Centre. This funding had become available from a financial contribution made as part of the planning process for a local housing development. All the works must comply with building regulations, planning requirements and any other necessary permissions.
· 2nd May 2025 -15th June 2025, Our Mynachdy Community Hall closed for refurbishment. The following was completed:
| 1 | - | New windows throughout the Hall. |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | - | New internal and external doors. |
| 3 | - | New heating/ cooling system. |
| 4 | - | New window curtains. |
| 5 | - | New alarm system. |
| 6 | - | New kitchen. |
New Lease
Rent: £1 a year if demanded: Payable by equal quarterly payments in advance on the usual quarter days (25th March, 24th June, 29th September, and 25th December).
Rent to be reviewed on an open market ba5is on every 10th anniversary of the term. However, this will not apply if OMC remains a charity. This exclusion applies only to organisations like OMC that are charitable in law i.e. organisations established wholly for recognised charitable purposes for the public benefit. Therefore, if OMC were to change the objectives so that they were no longer wholly charitable, or to become a Community Interest Company or a co-operative, or to assign (i.e. transfer) the lease to a non-charitable entity, then the rent review would apply, and a market rent would be payable.
1954 Act Protection (Renewal Rights)
The lease has the protection of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 (‘The Act'). This means that the lease will not automatically end when the lease term ends and the tenant is entitled, at the end of the lease term, to apply for a further protected lease on similar terms, which the landlord can only refuse if it makes out certain specific grounds for not granting a further lease, some of which entitle the tenant to compensation. This is a very useful protection. The lease is now registered with the Land Registry.
Activities at the Community Hall
The local councillors, occasionally members of parliament and assembly government carry out several surgeries throughout the year. The Hall is regularly used by Cardiff Council Electoral Services as a Polling Station for Local and National Elections.
Shazza's Coffee Morning
Shazza's Coffee Morning provides a vital and necessary service for the community by being an accessible, welcoming nondiscriminatory space aimed at the socialisation of ALL the community". The fee for hire of the community hall for Shazza's coffee morning is waived in its entirety as it helps the OMC to achieve its charitable targets by way of donation of the space to facilitate community cohesion.
On Fridays, Shazza's Coffee Morning continues to provide a daytime leisure activity which promotes well-being for the community at large including those not in school, college, or work, also meeting the needs of elderly, retired, or disabled persons and those incapacitated by physical and or mental ill health, or those unable to work. Thus, satisfying the "social welfare" requirement under s. 5 Charities Act 2011, as well as fulfilling educational needs.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS' (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2025
These activities, currently include but are not limited to, raffles, bingo, play your cards right, music, live entertainment, community lunches, health awareness discussions, and demonstrations etc. On one Friday of each month, organised entertainment can go on into the late evening, where necessary and beneficial to the community.
Shazza's Coffee Mornings objective is to contribute to the wellbeing of the community and also to raise charitable funds for various causes such as British Heart Foundation, Macmillan Cancer Support, Guide Dog Cymru etc.
Shazza's Coffee mornings is an unselfish and altruistic activity which, seeks to provide something for the benefit of others and satisfies charity law's social obligation test.
The Over 50's Club
On Tuesday afternoons, the hall hosts the OMC Over S0's Club, which was set up for the benefit of the older community in the area. This was one of the activities cited in the application, which enabled OMC to gain Charity Status. Any decisions regarding this activity therefore rest with OMC Trustees who may delegate the day-to-day operations to volunteers but the Trustees are to keep overall oversight. This activity continues to attract new members each week and is well appreciated by all who attend.
The activity is run and controlled by current trustees/ committee members. Though there are firm plans to invite volunteers to run the activity within the legal principles set forth by charity commission and with total committee oversight. As OMC contributes funds directly to the running of the Over 50's, there is now a need to monitor these funds under OMC accounts. On a number of occasions during the year, free community lunches are provided by OMC.
Victory Centre (Ag Church)
OMC continues to host Victory Centre Ag Church, every Sunday 9.30 am - 2.00 pm and last Saturday of the month 6pm - 9pm for music practice. 10.30am - 11.30am - English Worship, 11.35am - 1pm - Malayalam Worship.
The Church is a place to meet one another, to share hope and vision to the community around us. They regularly have an English service with young men and women, leading worship and sharing thoughts for the day. The Malayalam Worship also plays a major role in reaching the South Indian Community.
This ministry started off as a small home fellowship and then moved into the centre of Cardiff city reaching many homes and individuals. The church today is an enlightenment for many and uses the strong values of Love, Care and True Hope which is a must in today's society.
The church helps the OMC to achieve its charitable targets by way of us providing the regular space for worship.
Local Group Hire
The hall continues to be a central point for the community and with time we have seen the number of regular hirers go from strength to strength. Encouraged by community presence, strong leadership from the now cohesive committee and competitive hire rates. The following groups are regular weekly hirers of the Hall:
Academy Dance - For young girls. The Hall is hired privately for 1.5 hours for 1 day a week by a dance instructor.
Embroidery Classes - For adults in the local community. The Hall is hired privately for 2.5 hours a week by the instructors.
Tae Kwondo - The Hall is hired by Tae Kwondo Instructor on Wednesday evenings for 2 hours.
Revival Theatre Group - The hall is also used by Revival Theatre Group, which is Amateur theatre for children and adults. This is on Monday evenings for 4 hours.
Asian Dance Yoga - The hall is also now hired by a Dance Yoga Dance Instructor to teach dance to young girls 6 - 15 years old 2 hours on Tuesday evenings.
The Hall is also hired out to members of the local community for private parties such as birthdays and special occasions.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT ON THE ACCOUNTS
Report to the trustees/ members of Our Mynachdy Community on the accounts for the year ended 30th September 2025 set out on pages 9 to 17.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The Charity's trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. The trustees are satisfied that the audit requirement of Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in the governing document or constitution of the Charity for the conducting of an audit. As a consequence, the trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit, and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:-
a) examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act;
b) to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act; and;
c) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's statement
I conducted my examination in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales in relation to the conducting of an independent examination, referred to above. An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and of the accounting systems employed by the Charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements , and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning such matters. The purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of the Charities legislation and that the financial statements comply with the SORP, on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit , and information supplied by the trustees in the course of the examination is not subjected to audit tests or enquiries, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements, and in particular, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity, and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statement below.
I planned and performed my examination so as to satisfy myself that the objectives of the independent examination are achieved and before finalising the report I obtain written assurances from the trustees of all material matters.
Independent examiner's statement
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the trustees requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
· to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities.
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
