Behind the scenes

POP is a registered charity governed by the standards and regulations provided by the Charity Commission. The 4 founding members are the registered Trustees.

We are a true charity run by people who want to give and expect nothing more than the knowledge that they have made a difference.

To ensure best practice and to deliver an excellent service to our members we:

  • Hold monthly meetings following a set agenda. Since we are volunteers who earn our living outside POP, we can ensure that all of the money donated will go to a charitable cause.
  • Receive project reports on a monthly basis.
  • Monitor our bank account and how the funds are spent.
  • Maintain and regulate our financial management frequently and ensure that all standard internal controls are maintained: See Financial Management.
  • Maintain our website.
  • Keep members informed regularly
  • Coordinate volunteers
