ST DAVIDS CARE IN THE COMMUNITY TRUST (REGISTERED NUMBER: 02699716)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024


The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The objectives of the trust are to relieve young people with severe learning and physical disabilities by the provision of a stable home environment, community care and education in life skills to enable them so to develop their physical, mental and spiritual capacity that they may grow to full maturity as individuals and members of society and that their condition of life maybe improved by:
the provision of facilities for recreation and other leisure time occupation for such persons, the facilities to be provided in the interests of social welfare, etc.

Significant activities
In furtherance of the objectives and aims, the charity provides donations to St Davids (Care in the Community) Limited to acquire, hold and improve real estate, purchase minibuses and equipment to improve the lives of the residents.

Public benefit
The 2006 Charity Act defines a charity as a "body or trust, which is for a charitable purpose that provides benefit to the public". St Davids Care in the Community Trust delivers public benefit through the provision of relief of young people with severe learning and physical disabilities. The main areas of charitable activities are the provision of holidays, social activities and refurbishment of living accommodation for the residents of a related party, St Davids Care in the Community Limited. St Davids Care in the Community Limited welcomes residents with severe learning and physical disabilities from all backgrounds and geographical locations.

Volunteers
We are grateful for the assistance provided by local volunteers from Steps to Health Walking Programme, Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, National Trust and students on work experience.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
Most residents pay for their own holidays, but the charity was unfortunately unable to help fund holidays for those residents unable to cover the full cost themselves this year. The charity was able to provide a Christmas lunch as in previous years and every effort will be made to continue this each year. The charity helped with various outings over the past year including attending plays, pantomimes, car shows, going to farm and animal parks etc. Activities were organised for residents not able to go to family for holidays.

Fundraising activities
We rely mainly on the generous donations of the residents' families and friends of the organisation, to whom we are eternally grateful. The 100 club organised by one of the trustees has continued to grow. There are now 160 numbers sold and the charity has benefitted. The vast majority also return their winnings amounts so the residents can enjoy a meal out or a treat.


ST DAVIDS CARE IN THE COMMUNITY TRUST (REGISTERED NUMBER: 02699716)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024


ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Internal and external factors
Each year we organise an Open Day for the parents, friends and the local community. This is a good opportunity for the residents to thank St Davids for their support. The residents also help in local businesses and are well-known in the surrounding area. New projects to ensure stronger community links and to raise the Charity's profile within the local environment are always being explored. Part of this has been raising money for other organisations within the vicinity by our residents and their supporters. This is very much part of raising St Davids profile and has led to more interaction between locals and our residents.

Although not successful in obtaining grants for the horticulture project, we are still continuing with this and hope to be more successful in the future.

Ongoing meetings with fundraisers are still held in London from time to time and it is hoped that these will bear fruit in the not too distant future.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Principal funding sources
In the current financial climate, we have seen our charitable income being severely affected. The new website is now in existence and not only serves as an ongoing site, but our work is easily available to a larger audience. This will help direct donors in a more 'user-friendly' way.

Reserves policy
The funds decreased by £11,462 (2023 £5,728 decrease) in the year to 31 March 2024 resulting in total funds of £206,747 (2023 £218,209).

FUTURE PLANS
Over the next year the Trust will continue its activities to enhance the lives of the residents who have learning difficulties.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
The power to appoint or elect trustees of the charity rests with the trustees under the terms of the Articles of Association.

Organisational structure
There is a minimum of three trustees who meet on an annual basis and via conference link at regular periods throughout the year. Lyn Hall is responsible for the day to day running of the organisation.

Induction and training of new trustees
New trustees are invited to visit the organisation to see how it is run on a day to day basis and are introduced to key employees and other trustees. At the 2016 trustee's meeting three new trustees were invited to become trustees and have accepted thus increasing the board to six.

Wider network
A small group of "Friends of St Davids Care in the Community Trust" meet in London periodically to co-ordinate fund raising projects. Unfortunately donations and grants applied for have been unsuccessful, however several interested family members have offered to use other income streams through social media.

Related parties
Three trustees of the charity are directors of St Davids (Care in the Community) Limited. The charity makes donations to St Davids (Care in the Community) Limited and has a loan due from St Davids (Care in the Community) Limited. St Davids (Care in the Community) Limited also holds a property on trust for the charitable purposes of St Davids Care in the Community Trust.
