The trustees, who are also the directors for the purposes of company law. present thelr report the
unaudited financial stslements of the tharity for the year ended 31st December 2025.
Chalrfs rèport
M8ncap Wolverhampton in 2025 saw continuing transition of the Charity from its revised formation in
the 1980's to an u￿ated. amended arKI modemised txganisation supporting local learning-disablod
peDplg in the 21* ￿ntUry.
Our group of volunteerTrustses fomied a sulKommiltee in 2024 to amend the Objecttves and en5ur8
the long-temi future of the Charity and rts main asset. a propety c￿le￿ 'Glyn 8ank'. During the process
it found that the house had been left in trust to 3 fomier individual trustees rather than the Charity
itself. Onty one of those trustees was still alive and Mencap Wo]verhampton was in danger of k)sing
the prop8ty by default to the national body. This has all led to huge 8xp8nditure, using specialist
sDlicitors, lo ensure that Gtyn Bank remains an asset to the Charity and the people of ￿1verhaMpIOn
and the sumunding area. This process is now almost complele so Glyn Bank, which has recently been
valued at £300k, k8 no I(￿ger at rfsk of being lost to the bcal community.
My thanks go to those TNstees vtho have spent ¢xunUe5s hours researching the background of how
and when Glyn Bank was gifted to Mencap Wofverhampton. Trustees have had many meetings w((h
solicttors and contacts wlh the Charity Commiswn to ensure all the legal processes have been
succes5fv11y completed.
M8ncap Wolverhampton works with Ihe aduA leaming disabilty community in a dose three-way
partnership. Gateway Club provides scKAat and leaming opportunities every Friday evening al
Beckminslor Church vthere up to 60 members enjoy themselves led by Trudy and a volunteer team.
Trudy 18 also unéertaking the herculean tssk of updating all our polru8s so that they comply with current
regulakn'ong, for which l offer my sinc*re thanks.
The Crafty Gardener, a communty interest company (not for profit), uses 'Glyn Bank, to deliver a host
of actlvilies induding cookery, l.T., wo¢>)knrking, arts and crafts, gardening and many more. 1 C()'s of
hours of social, educational and supportive activities take plac& al 'Glyn Bank.. Crafty Gardeners is a
hlghly respected organisalion. unique in the IwAI area, and they 8re taking part in six research projeds
led by universities the country. To enable lo happen every day of the week we rnust keep
the propety in tip top condrtion and regular, c￿tinual Maintenar￿￿ takes place, this is not èasy for a
building Origin￿lY constructed in1891.
Tg this end in 2025 Men(*p Wofverhamplon paid fQrrede￿rating Ihe building, removal ol trees and the
inslallalion of a new boiler. Next year we will have lo repla￿ some of the windows and doors al the
property. W8 must raise funding to pay for all the upkeep needed on the house.
All oflhis 5UPPOrt comes al a prfce to Mencap Wofvethampton and fundraising musl now be a top priority
for the ￿ming year. An unsuccessful application was made to Greggs in the hope of fu￿l￿g for some
new windows. We are grateful for several donations receNed including a donation of£360 received from
Mary Boswell and £500 from Rotary Club. Gateway had a dOnat￿n following a cake sale at th6 churth.
Gateway transferred £1k to Mencap ￿￿1verhampt0n in support of the spiralling legal costs we have
incurred (likely to be over £20k).
This year we were pleased to wekome a newTrusiee to the Board, Mr Kolin Bhogal, who has proved
to ￿ a great help wth hosting a venue for meetings and expert advKe wlh some maintenance issues.
