Public Statement, October 2019

 

This is a public statement following a meeting of the Trustees of the Llangammarch & District Disaster Relief Fund on the 16th October 2019

 

  1. With grateful thanks to everyone who has contributed to the fund, the sum now stands at £34,848.74.

  2. Following advice, the fund will remain as a Charitable Trust Fund, which has been accepted by the Community Foundation in Wales as a charity.

  3. The family and other trustees agreed that there would be no more fund raising by the Trust itself, but that donations and monies raised by the public would still be most welcome.

  4. It was agreed to leave a sum in the bank and invest the rest to get some interest. The sum to be left in the bank was agreed at £2K for each child. The Community Foundation in Wales will be approached for investment advice for the balance.

  5. Any request for funds would need to come before, and agreed by, the trustees.
