Statement from the Eldonian Community Trust 10 April 2025 The Eldonian Community Trust wishes to inform the public of a recent development involving the Trust’s interest in Eldonian Leisure Ltd to ensure transparency and in accordance with our mission. Following a notification made to the Charity Commission regarding changes in share ownership of Eldonian Leisure Ltd shortly before our Annual General Meeting, the Commission has taken formal regulatory action under Section 76(3)(f) of the Charities Act 2011. This power allows the Commission to issue protective orders where there is a concern that property held on behalf of a charity may be at risk. As a result, the Commission has issued an order that includes the following limitations without prior Charity Commission approval: Sale and/or transfer or any other dealings of any assets and/or property held by Eldonian Leisure Limited Any dealings relating to the lease of the Eldonian Village Hall. Any dealings relating to shares of Eldonian Leisure Limited. The solicitation of money or property by Eldonian Leisure Limited The Commission’s order is a protective measure taken to safeguard charitable property while matters are under review, and it ensures that any property which may be held on charitable trust continues to be used solely for charitable purposes, in accordance with the law. We wish to express our sincere thanks to the Charity Commission for its prompt and careful response, and for its continuing support in helping to safeguard charitable assets. The Eldonian Community Trust remains fully committed to transparency, legal compliance, and to acting in the best interests of the community it serves. We will continue to engage openly with regulators and will provide updates as appropriate. For any questions or further clarification, community members and supporters are encouraged to contact us directly at secretary@eldonian.org. As always, we remain committed to keeping the community fully informed about developments and will provide further updates as necessary. We will continue to work closely with the Charity Commission and other relevant authorities to resolve the situation and ensure that the Trust’s assets are used in accordance with its charitable objectives.
