# COMMUNITY INTEREST ANNUAL REPORT

### TREE SOCIETY COMMUNITY INTEREST COMPANY

### Company Number: 15444795 (England and Wales)

### Year Ending: 31 March 2026

Company activities and impact

During the financial year, the company has pursued its community interest objectives through the following activities: The CIC has established a community tree nursery, providing a local facility for the propagation and growing of trees for the benefit of the wider community. The project successfully navigated an unforeseen site relocation, demonstrating the organisation's resilience and commitment to delivering the project for the community. Four community workshops were held relating to the construction and development of the tree nursery, engaging local residents and building knowledge and skills around tree growing and environmental stewardship. The CIC is actively planning a programme of community events scheduled for the summer period, which will further engage local residents and raise awareness of the organisation's environmental objectives.

Consultation with stakeholders

The CIC's stakeholders include local residents, the wider community, partner organisations, and statutory bodies with an interest in environmental and green initiatives. During the financial year, stakeholder consultation has taken place in the following ways: - Social media has been used as the primary channel for engaging with the local community, providing updates on the tree nursery project and receiving feedback and comments from followers and interested residents. - The local council was consulted as part of the planning permission process for the relocation of the tree nursery to its new site, ensuring the project met all necessary regulatory requirements. - Discussions have taken place with several green and environmental organisations regarding potential future collaboration and community events, strengthening the CIC's network and laying the groundwork for partnership activities in the coming year.

Directors' remuneration

The total amount paid or receivable by directors amounted to £12,986 in subcontracted fees for professional construction services provided to the CIC during the financial year. These services included: - Dismantling and decommissioning of the original tree nursery site - Transportation of materials and equipment to the new site - Full construction and project management duties of the new tree nursery from the ground up. - Management of the planning permission application process for the new site. These services were contracted at a fair market rate reflective of the work undertaken, and were necessary for the successful relocation and reconstruction of the community tree nursery.

Transfer of assets

No transfer of assets other than for full consideration
