## **Report of the Honorary Officers and Trustees For the Year Ended 31 March 2024**
The Officers and Trustees present their report with the financial statement of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2024.
## **PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY**
The principal activity of the charity in the year under review was that of the management and administration of the charity to pursue the Objects of the Association.
As with last year the volunteers’ main work has been to research and identify suitable premises and to recruit additional Trustees prior to launching project-specific activities.
The charity has been recruiting new Trustees and has not undertaken any income-generating initiatives over the past year. Its aims are as follows:
"To develop the capacity and skills of the members of socially and/or economically disadvantaged communities in the Parish of St Ives, Cornwall in such a way that they are better able to identify and help meet, their needs and to participate more fully in society."
The initial activities of the Charity have been to raise funds to enable support and delivery of local projects to improve the skills, health and wellbeing of local residents.
It is anticipated that the next twelve months will see the appointment of the new Trustees and the Founding Trustees will step down as suggested by the Charity Commission at the time of first registration. This was to ensure no conflict of interest as the Founding Trustees were also Trustees of other charities who may subsequently become potential beneficiaries of Sustainable St Ives.
## **Our general objects are summarised below:**
1. The advancement of general charitable purposes (according to the laws of England and Wales) as the Trustees see fit. In particular but not limited to making grants and awards to community groups in the area of benefit.
2. To promote the improvement of the conditions of life in the parish of St Ives, Cornwall for public benefit where there are socially and economically disadvantaged communities by developing the capacity and skills of the residents of the parish in such a way that they are better able to identify and participate more fully in society.
3. The prevention or relief of poverty by providing grants, items and services to charities, or other organisations working to prevent or relieve poverty.
4. The promotion of sustainable means of achieving economic growth and regeneration.
5. The protection and preservation of the environment by in particular, but not exclusively, promotion of waste reduction, net zero carbon advancement and environmental sustainability.
