Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 30 September 2022
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 September 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document
The Trust was established by and its operations governed by the Charity Commission, Scheme Number B/40753, dated 4[th] March 1890; the purpose being to maintain and manage, and to apply the income derived from land and property remaining as a permanent endowment following the dissolution of the Nefyn Corporation (1890). Under power given in the Charities Act 1993 a new scheme was introduced on 26[th] September 2006 known as the Nefyn Town Trust (217764).
Related parties
Due to the nature of the charity's operations and the composition of the board of trustees it is inevitable that transactions will take place with organisations in which a member may have an interest. All transactions involving organisations in which a trustee may have an interest are conducted at arm’s length. The charity has a policy that all trustees must declare an interest if a related party transaction occurs.
Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

Nefyn Town Trust
Report of the Trustees (Cont’d) for the Year Ended 30 September 2022
The Trust employs a clerk / secretary, Ffion Jones, on a part time basis. Mrs. Jones has adapted to the work and does it very well.
During the last twelve months, we were able to go back to conducting face to face meetings and we were able to deal with matters by phone as required and that worked well.
The list of properties in the Trust’s name is as follows,
26 houses (leased)
-
1 small house (used as Trust office)
-
6 garages (converted from old cottages – leased)
-
2 Store rooms (converted from old cottages – leased)
-
1 land area (site of the old Madryn Hall)
2 land areas (1 at Cefn y Maes and the other by the old St Mary’s Church now known as the Maritime Museum)
The Trust is responsible for the old town well of St Mary’s Church which is situated in the centre of the town and the watch tower located at Tower Hill, both these structures are registered as grade two listed buildings, numbered 19922 and 4372 respectively, and are therefore subject to governmental regulations.
On commencement of the scheme all lands and buildings were vested in the Official Trustee of Charity Lands.
The Trust’s responsibilities can be summarised as:-
Defraying the cost of repair and maintenance, insurance and all other charges in respect of the trust properties, when all the above costs and obligations have been met, to give and support and assistance to other organisations operating for the benefit of the public within the community of Nefyn.
Review of activities and progress
Repairs and maintenance
There was very little repairs and maintenance required during the year. The house that had become empty the year before last continued to be let to a new tenant and all the houses are now occupied.
The site at Madryn Hall has now become a new car park and we are debating how to charge for parking so as to recover the costs of the development. The car park site looks good and is very tidy.
Finances
The current financial position can be seen in the Statement of Financial Activities for the year ended 30[th] September 2022 which indicates the current healthy and sound state of the finances.
Approved by order of the board of trustees on 13 July 2023 and signed on its behalf by:

Ymddiriedolaeth Drefol Nefyn
Adroddiad yr Ymddiriedolwyr
am y flwyddyn yn diweddu Medi 30[ain] 2022
Mae Ymddiriedolaeth Drefol Nefyn yn elusen gofrestredig heb ei ymgorffori rhif 217764. Cyfeiriad swyddfa’r Ymddiriedolaeth yw – Gwalia Bach, Stryd Moreia, Nefyn, Pwllheli, Gwynedd LL53 6HG.
Bu’r bobl a enwir isod yn ymddiriedolwyr yn ystod y deuddeg mis:-
J G Thomas M R Jones B Jones G Williams W J Trenholme J A Jones
Talodd yr Ymddiriedolaeth Ffion Jones fel clerc / ysgrifennydd ar delerau rhan amser. Mae Mrs. Jones wedi addasu i’r gwaith ac yn ei wneud yn dda iawn.
Yn ystod y flwyddyn bu ailafael yn y drefn o gyfarfod wyneb yn wyneb ynghyd ac ymdrin â materion dros y ffôn fel ag yr oedd angen a bu hyn weithio yn dda.
Sefydlwyd yr Ymddiriedolaeth ym 1890 a rheolwyd ei gweithgareddau gan gynllun Comisiwn yr Elusennau rhif B/40753 yn ddyddiedig Mawrth 4[ydd] 1890. Pwrpas yr Ymddiriedolaeth oedd cynnal a chadw a defnyddio incwm o’r adeiladau a thiroedd fel gwaddol i’r dyfodol yn dilyn diddymu Corfforaeth Nefyn ym1890. O dan y pŵer a roddwyd yn Neddf Elusennau 1993 cyflwynwyd cynllun newydd ar y 26[ain] o Fedi 2006 i’w adnabod fel Ymddiriedolaeth Drefol Nefyn (217764).
Rhestrir y canlynol fel eiddo i’r Ymddiriedolaeth:–
26 o dai (ar osod)
1 tŷ bychan (defnyddir fel swyddfa’r Ymddiriedolaeth)
6 modurdy (wedi’u haddasu o hen fythynnod – ar osod)
2 stordy (wedi’u haddasu o hen fythynnod – ar osod)
1 darn o dir (lleoliad yr hen Neuadd Madryn)
2 ddarn o dir (un ar y Maes, y llall yn faes parcio ger Eglwys Santes Fair a’i adnabyddir yn awr fel yr Amgueddfa Forwrol)
Mae’r Ymddiriedolaeth hefyd yn gyfrifol am Hen Ffynnon y Santes Fair a leolir yng nghanol y dref a’r Hen Dŵr a leolir yng Nghefn Tŵr. Mae’r ddau adeilad yn awr wedi’u cofrestru fel adeiladau cofrestredig Graddfa 2, rhif 19922 a 4372 yn ôl eu trefn, ac felly yn atebol i reoliadau llywodraethol.
Ar ddechrau’r cynllun cofrestrwyd yr holl adeiladau a thiroedd gan yr Ymddiriedolwr Swyddogol o Diroedd Elusennol.
Gellir cofnodi dyletswyddau’r Ymddiriedolaeth fel a ganlyn:–
Talu’r costau cynnal a chadw, yswiriant ac unrhyw gostau eraill parthed eiddo’r Ymddiriedolaeth. Wedi sicrhau talu’r costau a’r rhwymedigaethau uchod, i gefnogi a chynorthwyo sefydliadau eraill sydd yn gweithredu er budd y cyhoedd o fewn cymuned Nefyn.

Adolygiad o’r Gweithgareddau a Datblygiadau
Cynnal a chadw – Ychydig iawn o gynnal a chadw oedd ei angen yn ystod y flwyddyn. Parhawyd i osod y tŷ ddaeth yn wag y llynedd i denant newydd a mae’r oll o’r tai yn awr wedi eu gosod. Mae safle’r hen Neuadd Madryn yn awr yn faes parcio newydd ac yr ydym yn trafod sut i godi tâl am barcio fel bo modd adennill costau’r datblygiad. Mae safle’r maes parcio yn edrych yn daclus iawn ac yn edrych yn dda.
Sefyllfa Ariannol – Gwelir y sefyllfa ariannol yn y datganiad ariannol am y flwyddyn hyd at 30[ain ] Medi 2022, sydd hefyd yn dynodi iechyd a chadernid sefyllfa ariannol yr Ymddiriedolaeth.
Cymeradwywyd dan orchmyniad bwrdd yr ymddiriedolwyr ar 13[rg] Gorffennaf 2023 ac arwyddwyd ar ei ran gan:
