A UK-based independent worldwide fellowship
Dear colleagues and friends,
As the Year of the Rabbit 2023 hops gently forward, it is our pleasure to take this opportunity to give you an update on our situation and activities. We hope that you will continue to lend us your valued support and interest and to participate in our various events.
The GCA Board of Trustees have submitted GCA’s final Trustees Annual Return (TAR, from 1st April 2021 to 31st March 2022) of the existing charity (registration number: 1154640) to the Charity Commission in December 2022. On the 17th May 2022 our application to become a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) registered with the Charity Commission was approved (registration number: 1198983). This means that the first financial year of the CIO will be from 17th May 2022 to 31st March 2023 (deadline for submitting TAR is 31st January 2024). Thereafter the reporting periods will coincide with the UK financial year, i.e. 1st April to 31st March every year.
