Charity Trustees Border Holiday Group SCIO (BHG SCIO) Trustees appointed at inaugural AGM 29th September 2020 and were re-elected at AGMS as per constitution.
Objectives and activities The Border Holiday Group SCIO exists to assist and relieve those in need by reason of ill health or disability, who are resident in the Scottish Borders and southern Scotland, by providing them with holidays. In doing so it also aims to provide respite for the beneficiaries, day to day carers. Main activities are, fundraising for and organisation of, a biannual holiday in a coach specifically designed to rneet the needs of the disabled and infirm.
structure, governance and management Type of governing document The Border Holiday Group SCIO constituted as an incorporated body charity in accordance with the law of Scotland and the Charity and Trustee Investment (Scotland) act 2005 and is administered in accordance with the terms of its constitution. Trustee recruitment and appointment Trustees were elected at the inaugural AGM and were chosen as they were already trustees of The Border Holiday Group SC038524, which was the unincorporated charity that the BHG SCIO was moving from. They were then re-elected at the AGM as per constitution.
Achievements and performance In the past year the Border Holiday Groups SCIO have successfully continued fundraising activities for the next Jumbulance trip which will take place in September. It will be enjoyed by nine disabled travellers accompanied by a volunteer care team of twelve. There are 13 active members, including the 3 Trustees. During the past year fundraising has come in through events including a Coffee Morning and a Common Riding and Christmas Hamper Raffle. There were also various donations from local organisations and friends of the groups and a Christmas card donation appeal which used Just Giving as a way of donating to the Charity. Match funding has also come in from Barratt Housing. VIP fares and Carers fares have also been coming in. While the first payments for the 2024 trip have been paid to the Jumbulance Trust, along with the usual year to year running cost of Lottery Licence and Insurance. With all the efforts the Group are in a good place financially heading in to a trip year which will see much expenditure, although there are still some fares to come in.
Financial review As of 31st March 2025, the BHG SCIO held unrestricted funds of £39174.48. These funds will be wholly used for BHG SCIO main activities and charitable purposes and, in particular, the forthcoming holiday to Holland in 2026. Statement of the charity's policy on reserves The BHG SCIO aims to hold a reserve of £15,000 in its accounts at all times. This is to allow the BHG SCIO to continue operating and fundraising between trips and be in a position to pay for running costs and deposits prior to fundraising starting on the next trip. At present there are no funds as no bank account has been opened. Details of any deficit There is no deficit.
Future plans A holiday is planned for September 2026, this time to Heerlen in Holland. Fundraising is ongoing by BHG SCIO members and by prospective clients who will be travelling on that trip. Additional information The list of prospective clients, both new and returning travellers, is ever increasing, with no shortage of applicants to fill the allocated spaces. The committee and Trustees are committed to continuous fundraising and there are a variety of forthcoming fundraising ventures planned which are needed to offset the ever-increasing cost of organising these holidays.
