Staff - Malvern Hills Conservators

ADMINISTRATION & RESOURCES
The Administration and Resources Committee is responsible for the financial
management, health and safety, implementation of the Byelaws, human resources, property
and public relations of the Board.
Legacies and Donations
In view of the many enquiries we receive, this year has seen the addition to our
website of a section for Legacies and Donations, including the facility to make on-line
donations. These donations are placed in the Gift Fund which this year supported
the erection of a fishing platform at Clevelode, picnic tables at Tank Quarry and
footbridges on Malvern Common.
A project that has been developed over the last two years is the Memorial Orchard
situated just off the junction of Northend Lane and Rectory Lane, Madresfield.
People are invited to donate an old variety of apple or pear tree in memory of loved
ones.
Investment Policy
Fishing platform at Clevelode Common
It is the Board’s policy to review its investment policy every three years, the next
review being in May 2010. However, in view of the financial crisis at the end of 2008,
a decision was made split the investments between two banks Lloyds TSB and the
Charities Aid Foundation.
Land Registration Update
The ongoing project to register title to all land managed by the Conservators is at last
reaching a conclusion. Four areas on east side of Worcestershire Beacon, Blackhill
Jubilee Drive and two areas on the north-west side of Walwyn Road, Upper Colwall
have been completed this year. The final three are nearing completion.
