Two former trustees of a troubled south Manchester charity have been banned from senior management roles in charitable organisations.
Hartley Hanley and Mike Bisson have been banned from being trustees or senior managers of any charity for seven years following a Charity Commission investigation which found the pair 'are responsible for persistent and prolonged failures in the management' of Moss Side and Hulme Community Development Trust.
Formed in 2002 to support regeneration in areas of deprivation, it failed to submit annual accounts in 2015 and again in 2016, prompting an inquiry by the Charity Commission which concluded in November 2020 that the trust should undergo an overhaul of its systems and ordered that there should be 'no further unauthorised trustee remuneration'.
