The Assistant Director of Neighbourhoods and Community submitted a report to the meeting which provided an update on the process and allocation of funding from the Alfred Sharp 1887 grants to schools and groups within the designated area in Bingley. The 1887 Alfred Sharp Bingley Educational Trust subcommittee had allocated £80,104.25 of the £220,000 available funds to local schools and community organisations. The report provided updated information on projects that have received grant funding through this process. The Bingey Area Ward Officer was present at the meeting and provided background information in relation to the setting of the Trust and the applications that had been received thus far. Details of the projects allocated funding and the rationale behind the decisions was set out in the appendix to Document “E”. In relation to a question regarding those applications that had been refused funding, it was explained that they had failed to meet the educational element requirement for funding. In relation to the funding of the Downs Syndrome information Packs, it was stated that further information was contained in the detailed application that had been submitted and this information would be circulated to Trustees. However, it was stressed that all the projects that had received funding, resided in the funding area boundary agreed by the Trustees. In relation to a question regarding the timescale for spending the remaining funding, it was stressed that there was no time limit specified, and that there would be a new funding round in due course. Members thanked the Ward Officer and the sub-committee, comprising of Ward and Parish Councillors, for assessing the funding applications received, and acknowledged their hard work and due diligence. The trustees resolved that the updates provided in Document “F” be noted and acknowledged. Financial grants of £85,104 were awarded by The 1887 Alfred Sharp Bingley Educational Trust in 2023-24. ## **Section E Financial review** March **2012** **TAR** 5 **Brief statement of the** N/A **charity’s policy on reserves Details of any funds materially** N/A **in deficit** ## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: N/A - the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); - how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; - investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted. ## **Section F Other optional information** N/A ## **Section G Declaration** **The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.** **Signed on behalf of the charity’s trustees** |**Signature(s)**
