Governance


Governance

SNAAP's governing document is its Memorandum and Articles of Association, which states that its objects are "the relief of children and young persons with disabilities or special needs, living in the East Kent area, by the provision of information, advice and support to their parents, leisure activities for the children and young people and such other charitable activities as the directors in their absolute discretion shall decide".

SNAAP is governed by a board of directors who are known as trustees.


Legal Structure

SNAAP was formed in 2003 and was registered as a charity in February 2001 (Registered Charity No. 1107944). In 2009 it was agreed by the trustees that SNAAP should become a Charitable Company Limited by Guarantee.

SNAAP (Special Needs Advisory & Activities Project) has continued to be known as 'SNAAP' and that acronym has been used throughout the report.

The members' liability in the event of SNAAP winding up is £10 each.

The Manager reports directly to the trustees at the Executive Committee meetings, which are held a minimum of four times a year.
