## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
## **Governing document**
Dezzas Cabin was founded in 2014 as a not-for-profit organisation. This is a charitable unincorporated organisation governed by a constitution, dated December 2014 -
August 2021 Dezzas Cabin took over the Monkton Sports & Community Centre - charity reference number 519928. The name was amended in August 2021 following this takeover to make it Dezzas Cabin.
At this point all of the assets, liabilities, services were transferred from Monkton Sports and Community Centre to be the newly listed Dezzas Cabin charity.
The constitution provides for an executive committee of not less than 4 nor more than 15 members including Chair and Vice-Chair. Of these, not less than 3 and not more than 12 members are to be elected at the annual general meeting and hold office from the conclusion of that meeting. The executive committee may in addition appoint up to a maximum of 4 co-opted members providing that not more than one third of the executive committee is made up of co-opted members.
The executive committee shall hold at least 6 ordinary meetings each year.
## **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.

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities**
In this last year Dezzas Cabin has supported thousands of people whether it be by gifting them essential items needed for the family or essential disability aids that they could find hard to fund themselves. All this is down to the community's kindness, as by donating essential items it makes life so much easier for a person not to have the worry of affordability. Non-essential items are also donated such has ornaments, Hand bags, brass, rags, books - list could be exhausting but these are the items we can put on for a donation basis so we can maintain the overheads. Take what you need give what you can is our main ethos.
Ragged items / books / metal also bring in an income.
Community centre continues gardening group , supporting the community with freshly grown produce / pumpkins and a hot meal to show gratitude for everyone's support. Peer led support group.
We continue to provide weekly bingo for the community and try encourage group activities to the community.
Annually we still do Santa's Camper we were grounded to the community centre this due to no camper. community showed frustration as they were disappointed,
Easter time we again left gifts or toys in as many locations as possible.
During the year the centre is hired or gifted out to local supporting agencies and other charities to continue the support they can community. Councils/ DA/ homeless / housing associations / supported living / social services / NHS/ homeless Pembrokeshire/ future works / local citizens advice have all referred to Dezzas Cabin and will recommend us as the first point of call for essential items needed.
Volunteers are priceless, gratitude that we can never express enough. A lot of our support is getting people back into work, so once a volunteer blooms and starts work it reduces our volunteers. This can be very trying due to the now loss of a valuable volunteer however so rewarding to have played a part in their achievements to be able and committed to work or even just getting out of bed or the house.
Background volunteers are also hard to come by, given the fact we are all self-taught within the accounting side of Dezzas Cabin- Daily / weekly / monthly /dated cash sheets are all recorded by at least three volunteers. Priority is to be open and transparent as should any charity should be.
All the above will continue to strive to achieve as we have for previous years.
