Statement from the Trust : Thu Sep 04, 2014 8:47 am
The Trust since it’s start in 2002, has been Registered under the Industrial and Provident Societies Acts 1965-78, reporting annually to The Financial Services(now Conduct) Authority. Recent legislation has changed so we are now “A Registered Society under the Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014. Under the Constitution all Members must pay a subscription as decided by the Board and each is entitled to 1 voting share being £1 of the membership fee. We are and always will be Independent, raising our own funds deciding when and how they should be spent. 4 years ago, at the request of the Club's BOD, the decision was taken to concentrate our efforts in supporting the Junior team in whatever guise, be it Under 23's or Under 20's, and to that end we have to date raised £80,000 in 4 years. For this we thank all, be they Trust Members or not who have helped us in many ways to achieve this. Thanks to all who attended last weeks Quiz raising £103.
