Organisational Structure

The structure of the organisation consists of:-

The MEMBERS – who have the right to attend members’ meetings (including any annual general meeting) and have important powers under the constitution; in particular, the members appoint people to serve on the board and take decision on changes to the constitution itself.

The constitution allows for a minimum of four and a maximum of 15 trustees.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Charitable purposes

The charitable purpose of Cornton Action Planning Partnership is the advancement of citizenship or community development and the charity aims to do this by carrying out activities that encourage local people, community groups/organisations and community planning partners to work together to achieve the best physical and social improvements in Cornton.

Activities

CAPP has had a difficult year as we tried to get our bank account reopened and gain access to our funds, all of which led to a struggle to maintain enthusiasm for the way forward. Complaints were raised with our bankers. We are delighted that bank issues were all resolved in Spring (after the financial year end) and we now have a new bank account with the funds transferred in from the old account. We are looking forward to a better year ahead. We have managed to hold a local partners meeting once again which was encouraging.

Financial Review

During the year the charity had no income (2024: £0) and no expenditure (2024:£0). The general fund had no change.

Reserves Policy

Reserves at the period end were £807 (2024:£807). The trustees are confident that £300 of reserves is sufficient to continue the running of the charity for the next 3 months. The Trustees have met this target at the period end. The remainder of the reserves will assist the trustees to carry out their charitable activities in the coming year.
