Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of | To consolidate the constitutional status of the Hall. the charity during the financial period

Blairmore Village Hall became a community organisation based on a Deed of Trust signed and dated in 1971. This status remained unchanged until October 2012 when the Committee successfully applied for registration as a Scottish Charity. In 2020 an application for the two-tier SCIO model was submitted to OSCR. However, this process was never completed due to complex issues principally concerning ownership of assets and the Land Register. Throughout this five-year period the Hall Committee has attempted to simultaneously operate under two different constitutions - the old Deed of Trust and the proposed new SCIO. This became untenable and, in an attempt, to resolve the matter the former chair undertook to liaise with The Third Sector Interface and OSCR. The outcome of these negotiations established: e That OSCR was prepared to issue a waiver that would allow SCIO status to be confirmed in advance of the Land Registry update being completed. e That the Hall must set up a new bank account under the SCIO registration This resulted in the unanimous decision to proceed with a single tier SCIO model as set out in the Committee Minutes dated 20th July 2025 and subsequently presented to an AGM for SCO43493 on 14th September 2025 and to an AGM for SCO50150 on 03 December 2025.
