## **ARDAL ABERYSTWYTH ROTARY CLUB CHARITABLE INCORPORATED ORGANISATION (CIO) Charity number: 1201894** ## **Registered Address:** Richmond Hotel, 44-45 Glan y Mor, Aberystwyth, SY23 2BX ## **ANNUAL REPORT 2023-2024** ## **Charity Trustees as of date of this Report:** Richard Griffiths Stephen Lawrence Jeremy Mabbutt (Secretary) Barbara Salerno (Vice President) Martin Tranter (President) James Wallace (Treasurer) ## **Other Charity Trustees who served in the Financial Year 23/24:** Alan Haird (Past President) ## **Ardal Aberystwyth CIO Charitable Aims** Our Charitable Aims are set out in our governing document and are the relief of the poor and needy in Aberystwyth and the surrounding area, any other part of the United Kingdom or elsewhere in the world, or such other charitable purpose as the members of the CIO shall in duly constituted meeting direct. ## **Ardal Aberystwyth CIO Governing Document** Our governing document is our Constitution, dated and last amended 3rd October 2022, which is a constitution of a Charitable Incorporated Organisation with voting members other than its Charity Trustees, and is appended to this Annual Report. ## **Commentary on Activities** Our activities in the period 01 July 2023 to 30 June 2024 have been focused on overall generation of fundraising finance to be able to support individuals, groups, and organisations in line with our Charitable Aims. Funds were raised through a combination of cash collections, raffles, and concerts for President’s Charities of the Year (being Aber Dads and Papyrus) and, through the establishing of the first St David’s Day Concert, to contribute proceeds to support local musicians. ## **Commentary on Annual Accounts** The Annual Accounts for 23/24 are attached to this Annual Report. Total income of £16,580.07 is offset by a total expenditure of £13,329.59, providing a resultant net income of £3,250.48. When added to the net income from our preceding year 22/23 this provides a carry forward balance of £7,109.68. Our CIO registered with the Charity Commission on 9 February 2023; however, our Financial Year runs in line with the Rotary International Financial Year of 1 July to 30 June. Therefore, our first financial year was part-year only, from 9 February 2023 to 30 June 2023. The Charity Commission will not accept Page **1** of **2** part-year submissions less than 6 months, and as a result we are obliged to submit a consolidated 22/23 and 23/24 account. Accordingly, the Annual Accounts for 23/24 also include a separate ‘Total Funds’ column for the full c. 17-month period, the ‘Reporting Period’, with a corresponding turnover for that period of £25,073.77 and expenditure of £17,964.09. It is expected to report 12-month periods going forward in line with our Rotary Financial Year. ## Reserves No reserves were held during the Reporting Period. ## Assets No assets were held during the Reporting period other than cash funds designed for distribution at a later date beyond the current financial year. ## **Trustee Certification** All Trustees confirm that they have fully complied with the duty in Section 4 of the 2006 Act to have due regard to guidance on public benefit published by the Commission. This Annual Report is certified as correct by the Trustees, on this date 20 January 2025. End.
