At its recent AGM, the Bishopthorpe Millnnium Trust set out its proposed way forward.
In future the Trust will be concentrating on setting up and monitoring the remainder of the Crossroads scheme. Having made grants to village clubs and societies totalling over £16 000, its grants programme has now come to an end.
Plans are in hand to transfer “ownership” of the Youth Award scheme, the Sensory Garden and the Pinfold, to the Parish Council. John Bettridge is standing down as Chair and Trustee after seven years. A s a result, special meeting is to be held on 25th July.
The agenda for the special meeting would include: a new structure for the Trust; the Trustees Annual Report; the accounts for 2006/7; proposed changes to the Trust Deed; the election of Trustees for the new structure; and the appointment of Chair from 25th July 2007.
