Charitable Trust
Advice was taken by those in
charge of the Community Care organisation, as to the best way to
handle and manage this substantial sum; that advice (from lawyers
specialising in this type of work) was to incorporate and to
register a charitable trust, responsible for the administration of
the bequest.
Accordingly, the Felmersham and Radwell Community Trust became
officially registered as a charity in February 2004. |
The
Trustees
The organisers of the Community Care, as the original beneficiary of Margaret Alleway’s
will, have invited a group of four village residents to be the
administrators of the new Trust, and to be registered with the
Charity Commission as its Trustees.
The Trustees are Michael Thomas, Jeffrey Stokley, Richard Phipps
and Lorraine Shrimpton. They will be responsible for all aspects
of running the Trust, which will of course retain its close links
with the Community Care. |
Summary of Trust
Objectives
i) to provide help with domestic support, for the elderly, sick,
disabled, or those in need within the two villages, in
co-operation with other relevant providers of such help; and
ii) to provide facilities for social welfare, recreation and
leisure, again in co-operation with other relevant organisations,
for the benefit of the inhabitants of these villages. |
