The Trustees and Clerk to the Town Trust wish to extend our welcome and we are pleased to give a brief outline of the functions of the Trust. We welcome any interest in our work and will be pleased to answer any questions and glad of offers of assistance if anyone wishes to become involved. Prior to 1886 the Charities of the Parish were administered by the Mayor and Corporation of the Borough of Bradninch, Trustees appointed by them, and in some cases by the Churchwardens and the Overseers of the poor. As the Corporation of Bradninch ceased to exist in 1886 the Charity Commissioners made the following schemes:
The Trustees consist of 5 Co-optative and 4 Representative Trustees, elected for a term of 4 years, and can be reappointed. The co-optative trustees are elected by the whole of the trustees at a meeting held for the purpose and the representative trustees are elected by Bradninch Town Council. The Current Trustees:
The Trust is Responsible for administration of the Parochial Charities and owns and is responsible for the Guildhall (our Town Hall), the old school in Millway, 3 fields and 2 cottages. The fields and cottages are leased to local residents and the old school area is under review. |
