## **2. Opening address or comments by Chairperson** 

Thank you for all for coming tonight, this should not be too long. 

## **3. Minutes of Last AGM (October 2023) for Adoption** 

All UMC members present had access to a copy of the previous minutes from 2023 sent on the google chat.  The minutes were read and agreed by all members as a true record. Approval of the minutes was proposed by Terry Burns and seconded by Yvonne Chadwick. 

## **4. Matters Arising from those minutes** 

There have been more changes to the committee with added committee members. Directs Debit membership payments for subs is going well and making a difference in the finances. 

Despite not being financially viable, as previously discussed, the Royal Marine Cadets attachment opened this year. 

The changing of the door codes as discussed last year has not yet been completed and after a long process Arthur Kelsall has now been removed from the Land registry. 



## **5. Chairperson’s Report** 

This year has seen a lot of changes again, from the change to our Land registry to the addition of the Royal Marine Cadet detachment, it has been a very busy year. 

The most notable change is the stability of our finances. Its not easy for us to earn the money that we need to provide for the Cadets, keep the building open and make necessary repairs but we have all worked together to make most of it happen. The dedication and commitment that the volunteers have shown is amazing and I would like to thank you all, without the opening for Paranormal bookings we just would not be able to stay open. 

The UMC have had some new additions to the committee and one of those additions has kindly agreed to take over as Chairperson, Ron Mahoney has been with us less than a year, but his work and knowledge of health and safety and maintenance is a good portion of the role. 

One of Ron’s successes is the new heating, getting it at a good price was key in us staying open and being better off financially. I think we all can agree that the reason it wasn’t done earlier was the lack of knowledge/experience and the cost, so thank you Ron. 

I have just not been active enough in this position, and we still need a secretary after malgorzata resigned and so this for me is the perfect solution. Going back to secretary with the addition of possible vice chair just eases some guilt for me but does balance the committee a little. 

We have seen changes with how we collect subs, changes for paranormal bookings and how we do business in general, our core values and help for others has not changed nor has the direction we are going which is onwards and upwards. There is a debate as to whether that onwards and upwards will be in this building or not, but regardless of what the future brings I’m sure we will embrace it and make it great. 

## **6. CO Report** 

Thank you all for attending. 

Firstly, Thank you to Yvonne our chairperson for her unwavering commitment this last 12 months. 

Last year we sat with 4 UMT and 2 CFAV’s around the table and an ambitious plan on both sides of our team, Growing the UMT and developing the uniform side. 

Yvonne’s work over the last few years whether that be grant applications, charity commission work, liaising with accountants to attending meetings for the RMC. 

Thank you for your continued work and look forward to you hopefully having a less busy year in the next 12 months. I’m sure you will support and advise your successor and continue to be a key member of our team. 

We’ve recently received our UR scores which is the second highest in the last 14 years and the highest score for our last 9 years. This is a culmination of the hard work of all the team across all areas yet gives us some clear points of improvement to exceed this years scores and enhance our experience to our young people. 

Some of milestones over the last 12 months have been: - 



- Opening of new Royal Marine Cadet Detachment. We were the first to open in the Northwest under the DCMS funding and are moving from strength to strength with the opportunities we are providing our cadets with. Significant effort has gone into recruiting and training our new CFAV’s as well personal development by the Detachment Commander who has passed the first phase of the Officer programme. Special thanks to the DC, PO Bec Burrows, for her continued work and very excited to see the RMC progress this year. 

- Growth Award for 2023. This year our recruitment officer and PR team have worked very hard to increase our numbers which they have done so successfully. Numbers currently sit at 54 Cadets and 26 Adults with no signs of stopping. An upcoming push for all categories, Instructors and Cadets will help push our unit from strength to strength. Special thanks to newly promoted Midshipman (SCC) Will Appleton RNR on his work and congratulations on passing the officer’s board. 

- Classrooms. Most of the unit hasn’t been able to be improved due to finances for some years but due to the work from grants, fundraising events and donations from Lord Derby, we have eventually been able to start improving our training facilities for our cadets as well as the other groups who use our building. Special note to the upper barracks and storage rooms which has now been converted to new entry training. Plans to bring back the Marine Engineering workshop, upgrade the Junior Classrooms and get our overnight licence back are really refreshing, obviously when finances allow. 

- We’ve completed several events and have several planned for the future. Some of note are D Day Tri service event with RAFAC and ACF. Commander Watson and Royal Navy presentation. RMC Opening night, Armed Forces Parade with our largest footprint for years. 

- We have several projects in motion from the one already mentioned, progress in becoming an Air Rifle Centre for Merseyside, expansion of paranormal bookings, maintenance and improvement as well as PDP for our instructors. 

In my first year as OIC, I can’t thank everyone enough, in uniform or not on the work you all do. Inspiring our young people, racializing a safe environment for them to come too and a hub of activity for the community. I really look forward to seeing what we can achieve this year.

|Bank Account|£16,780.34|
|---|---|
|Savings Account|£3,124.91|
|Jack Platt Fund|?|

Jack Platt Fund includes a compensation payment of £75.00 from HSBC. This was for member of their staff attaching an unknown person from another person’s Business Account onto our Online Banking in error and HSBC then having to close our Online Account because of this error.  This payment was paid into the wrong account by HSBC and needs to be transferred from the Jack Platt fund into the General Account. 

On reflection the unit has continued to overspend with a loss of -£4,314.82 (income vs expenditure) looking ahead with newer members to the UMT, plans to look at new innovative ways of raising income and a robust approval process for spend the expectation for 24/25 looks very promising. 

To date (as of August 2024) the net profit for this financial year is £3,835.52 this is testament to the good work already underway with a special mention to Paul & team who has led on some already profitable areas such as Unit Merch, Paranormal Price Review & Cadet Sub’s.
