On 17 September 2020, the Unit achieved ‘Lime’ status meaning it had complied with all of the Covid guidelines and had been assessed as safe to re-open by National Sea Cadets. This was due to the efforts of our CO PO(SCC) McBrinn. In order to limit numbers in the building at any one time Seniors were limited to attending one night a week on a Thursday with Juniors attending on their own on a Monday evening. During October half-term three boating sessions were planned at Tamar Lake but unfortunately due to poor weather only one session took place. On the 3 November 2020 the Unit had to close again in line with Government Covid restrictions. The Unit had planned re-open in January but was unable to do so due to the national Covid lockdown imposed after Christmas. Online activities were continued to be offered to all Cadets. The AGM for the year April 2019 to End March 2020 had been delayed due to Covid but took place via Zoom on Monday 25 January 2021. The CO reported that despite the effects of Covid we still retained 26 Senior Cadets, 10 Junior Cadets and 9 Uniformed staff. Mr Stuart Towers stood down as Unit Chair but remained as Trustee. Mr Neal Davies-Fletcher was elected as trustee and Unit Chair. The Unit remained closed in accordance with the national Covid lockdown for the remainder of this financial year. 9 ## **Section E Financial review** The Trustees endeavour to maintain at least four months of working **Brief statement of the** capital at each year end. **charity’s policy on reserves** **Details of any funds materially in deficit** ## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: - 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** ## **Section G** ## **Declaration** **The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.** **Signed on behalf of the charity’s trustees** **Signature(s) Full name(s)**[NEAL DAVIES-FLETCHER] C. de BLOCQ VAN KUFFELER **Position (eg Secretary, Chair,** CHAIR SECRETARY **etc) Date** 13/09/2021 10
