FOR THE YEAR ENDING 31 JANUARY 2026 

## **TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT** 

## **STRUCTURE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing Document** 

Plean’s Voice is a Scottish Charitable Organisation (SCIO) registered on the 24[th] of January 2023 

## **Appointment of Trustees** 

Trustees are elected at the AGM, or co-opted during the accounting year. 

## **Organisational Structure** 

The structure of the organisation consists of: 

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

- the BOARD, who hold regular meetings, and generally control the activities of the organisation; for example, the board is responsible for monitoring and controlling the financial position of the organisation. 

## **OBJECTS & ACTIVITIES** 

## The charity’s objects are: 

- the advancement of citizenship or community development through the organising of community-based activities that foster pride in the community of Plean and surrounding areas. 

- the provision of recreational facilities, or the organisation of recreational activities, with the object of improving the conditions of life for the persons for whom the facilities or activities are primarily intended 

## The charity’s activities include: 

- Assisting local people to live better, safer, or more fulfilled lives by encouraging social interaction through community events, Plean in Bloom, fundraising events, guided walks, etc. 

- The recruitment of volunteers who wish to make a difference in their community, to help fundraise, run events and activities. 

- Working in partnership with other organisations such as Stirling Council, PTA's, Schools, the local TSI and local businesses to achieve the purposes outlined in our governing document. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS & PERFORMANCE** 

Year three has been a period of growth, refinement, and exciting new partnerships.  By listening closely to our community, we improved our existing programs and introduced fresh initiatives, adapting smoothly whenever unexpected challenges arose. 

Our community stands strong with nine Trustees and around 100 members. We are always looking for new faces to join us, and we currently have four trustee vacancies open for members eager to step into leadership roles. This year, we also opened some of our Trustee meetings to the public to ensure everyone has a voice in our future. 

Thanks to the generosity of individual donors, local and external businesses, grant funders, and event attendees, we raised over £31,000 this year. Here is how we turned that support into meaningful action for Plean 

## **Events, Activities and Projects** 

From the start we have been guided by the results of the community survey we carried out in 2022 prior to becoming a charity. Sometimes we have collaborated in projects initiated by other organisations. We have continued to listen to the community and welcome suggestions and ideas.

## **TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT** 

## **Stay n’ Play Café** 

This _family and toddlers plus_ group was originally established by Inspiring Communities SCIO, and we are proud to continue supporting them in running it. Over the last year, we have been working closely with their team to move the project over to Plean’s Voice. 

## **Monday Soup and Sandwiches** 

Operating since the inception of Plean’s Voice, this event provides participants with a high quality meal, social interaction, and regular entertainment. The program engages a diverse audience, including consistent attendees, occasional participants, and new visitors. In 2025, the event relocated to William Simpsons Care Home. 

This move has proved highly beneficial, fostering strong social connections and new friendships between our _Monday Soup and Sandwich_ group and the care home residents. 


## **Easter Fun Day.** 


Our annual Easter Fun Day remains a major highlight on our calendar, brought to life through a fantastic partnership with the Friends of Plean Country Park. The park grounds came alive on the Sunday before Easter with traditional holiday activities, funfair rides, local stalls, and a bustling children's tombola. 

Attendees stayed warm and well-fed with plenty of hot dogs, soup, tea, coffee, and delicious home-baked treats. It was a wonderful, memorable day for everyone involved, and we are excited to make our upcoming celebrations even more spectacular! 

## **Plean in Bloom** 

Our Plean in Bloom committee pours their hearts into keeping the village looking its best all year long. This year, they brightened up the colder months by introducing winter planting in our communal tubs, and they did a spectacular job making the cenotaph look beautiful for Remembrance Day. Intensive summer chores like keeping the hanging baskets watered were made so much easier by our incredible team of volunteers. It is a true team effort that keeps Plean blooming beautifully all summer!

**TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT** FOR THE YEAR ENDING 31 JANUARY 2026 

## **Plean Summer Fun Day** 

The sun shone brightly on Sunday 27th July for another incredible Fun Day, which brought even more stalls, games, and activities to the village than in 2024! The turnout was absolutely fantastic, and we completely lost count of the crowds who came along to join the fun. For the very first time, we hosted a dedicated morning ASN session, which was a wonderful success. We are thrilled with how well it was received and plan to make this inclusive session a staple of the event for years to come. 





## **Christmas Festive Lighting** 

Growing our village light display is a major investment, but our community and local businesses stepped up yet again, to bring the vision to life. We are thrilled to share that the festive lights now stretch down the entire length of Main Street! 

The transformation was absolutely magical, bringing an undeniable lift to everyone's spirits, and adding so much extra joy to our holiday season.

**TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT** FOR THE YEAR ENDING 31 JANUARY 2026 

## **Breakfast and Lunch with Santa** 

A refresh to our festive formatting this year saw the launch of our first-ever "Lunch with Santa" event, which completely sold out. Attendees had a wonderful time, and the roaring cheers when Santa emerged from his grotto were the perfect measure of the children's excitement. Earlier that same day, we also hosted a dedicated ASN (Accessible / Additional Support Needs) Breakfast with Santa, ensuring that the magic of the holidays was fully inclusive and accessible to all families in our community. 


## **Christmas donation to each resident of William Simpsons Home** 

In recognition of the exceptional support provided by the care home, and to guarantee that every individual was included in the seasonal celebrations, Plean’s Voice once again distributed a small gift to every resident. This initiative aimed to bring festive joy to all members of the care home community. 

## **Weekly Community Lunch** 

Supported by grant funding from the Community Health & Wellbeing Fund, we successfully delivered a wellattended weekly community lunch program throughout the winter months. To extend our support, attendees were also provided with take-home bags containing essential food items and toiletries each week. Participant feedback highlighted profound social benefits, including the formation of new friendships, reduced anxieties surrounding food insecurity, and the simple comfort of enjoying a freshly prepared meal. We extend our sincere gratitude to our primary funders, as well as to Inspiring Communities, whose critical top-up funding allowed us to extend this vital project well beyond its initial 10-week timeline. 

## **Membership** 

At the end of January 2026, the charity had 100 members. 

## **Social Media** 

Plean’s Voice has its own Facebook page and currently has over 1,200 followers. 

## **Website** 

**Our New Website is Live!** https://pleansvoice.org.uk 

We’re delighted to share that our new website is now live, and we’ve begun transferring content from our old site. To keep the project progressing, our website committee meets regularly to oversee the migration and introduce new features. While there is still work to do, we are making good progress and expect to have a fully developed, user-friendly online hub in place over the next 12 months.

FOR THE YEAR ENDING 31 JANUARY 2026 

## **TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT** 

## **RESERVES POLICY** 

Trustees maintain that they need £1,500 for normal day to day running of the charity for a three-month period. As of the 1[st] of February 2026, there is £2,586 (2025: £230) in reserves.  Trustees will actively look at ways to increase their reserves in the next financial year. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

## **Looking to the Future: What’s Next?** 

Exciting major projects are on the horizon! We are currently in ongoing discussions with Stirling Council to officially take on the management of The Balfour Centre. To make the centre even more supportive during emergencies, we plan to install a battery storage system. If the village experiences another power cut, we will be able to open the doors as a fully powered warm hub, providing hot meals, warm drinks, internet connection and a safe place for everyone. 

We have also teamed up with the Friends of Plean Country Park for an incredible new initiative: transforming the beautiful walled garden into a thriving community garden space. Keep a close eye on our Facebook page for updates as this plan comes to life! 

Our organisation is growing steadily, and we want you to be a part of it. If you have ideas, feedback, or a little time to spare, please contact any of us, we would love to welcome you aboard.

FOR THE YEAR ENDING 31 JANUARY 2026 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT** 

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Plean’s Voice** 

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 January 2026, which are set out on pages 11 to 17. 

## **Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner** 

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 ("the 2005 Act") and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) ("the 2006 Regulations"). The trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation (10)(1)(d) of the 2006 Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts under section (44)(1)(c) of the 2005 Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement** 

My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the 2006 Regulations. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeks explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. 

## **Independent Examiner's Statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter came to my attention:- 

1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect, the requirements 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Regulations, and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 9 of the 2006 Regulations 

have not been met, or 

2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
