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.
