1. Welcome and introductions

Ian Greenwood opened the meeting and welcomed Alison Rose our new Divisional Police Commander to her first meeting.  Directors and staff introduced themselves.

Ian presented engraved vases to Sarah Brown and Vipin Joshi and thanked them for their hard work and dedication which had contributed to the success of Bradford Trident.

The Board wished both of the former Directors best wishes for the future.

2. Presentation of Annual Report

Mark Fielding talked through the annual report and picked out the highlight stamped in red on the report.

Ian Greenwood thanked Mark for his report and also wished to thank the Board, staff and our partners for another successful year.

We are now looking forward to the election of the Community Council in June 2009 which is the next stage in the evolution of Bradford Trident.

3. Presentation of Draft Annual Accounts as at 31st March 2008 

David Mosley talked through the accounts and advised the Board that we have a strong balance sheet with assets of £10.544 million including £1.1 million cash in the bank.

The properties on the balance sheet have been revalued due to the impact of the credit crunch and this has seen a reduction in the assets on the balance sheet of £147k.

Bradford Trident Trading made a gift aid payment of £33,890 to the charity and the Charity Board are very grateful for this donation.

Malcolm Harding from KPMG commented that Bradford Trident has a solid balance sheet, it is very prudent to revalue the properties and the charity is in an excellent position with cash in the bank.

KPMG wished to pass on their thanks to David Mosley and Iqbal Patel for their cooperation and assistance in the production of the financial information.

Malcolm asked the Directors if they had any questions on the balance sheet and there were none from the floor.

Ian Greenwood thanked Malcolm for his report and formally thanked KPMG for their valuable assistance in the production of the financial statement.

It was proposed by Ian Greenwood and seconded by Will Jennings that the draft annual accounts as at 31st March 2008 be adopted and that Ian Greenwood be authorised to sign the accounts in his capacity as Chair.  All Directors were in favour with the exception of Isa Khan.

4. Re-appointment of Auditors

Ian Greenwood proposed that KPMG should be reappointed for a further twelve-month period, this was seconded by Sarah Hinton, all Directors were in favour with the exception of Isa Khan.

5. Authorisation of audit fee for the year

Ian Greenwood proposed that agreement of the audit fee is delegated to David Mosley and the Chair of Bradford Trident.  This was seconded by Zahira Hussain, all Directors in favour with the exception of Isa Khan.

6. Questions and answers - nil
