Additional govemanco Issues (Optional inforniatlon)
The charity was registered as a CIO on 30 April 2024 as a restrurturing
of an existing CUA of the same name (an Excepted Charity). Assets
have yet to be transfefred from the CUA to the new CIO, which during
the period reFM)rted was non-operational.
You may cho(w to include
additional infomiation, where
relevant, about:
policies and procedures adopted
for the indudion and training of
trustees.
Transfer of assets requires a bank account and a $105 ordèr from
the Charity Commission. This order was delayed and was eventually
issued on 5 February 2025. A subsequent delay owing to a further
legal issue resulted in the assets still not having been transferred by the
pericd end date of 31 March 2025, as a result of which the CIO was
non-operational throughout the period report and remains so at the time
of publishing this report. It is anticipated that it will become operational
in the next financial year.
