Minutes:
A report was received which put before Members the option of transferring the administration of three small charities to the Worcestershire Community Foundation. Officers confirmed that, having sought further information on the benefit that had accrued to Redditch through the Community Foundation, it was apparent that a considerable number of grants had been made to organisations in the Borough during recent times.
