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. 6

Waste Storage Facility Land on the east side of the Worcestershire Beacon Following advice from the Environment Agency it was considered best practice to have an area to where all grass cuttings, wood chip and scrub is delivered. It is contained and fitted with a sump to catch any run off. The waste is allowed to semicompost before being collected and taken to a recycling centre. The facility situated at Upper Wyche Quarry is now up and running. Waste Storage Facility 7
