## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

The Trustees met three times: in June and October 2024 and in March 2025. 

Historically, income for the charity has come from just three sources - rent from property, dividends from investments and bank interest. 

The Charity owns a commercial property in Walton-on-Thames, purchased in June 2016 at a cost of £657,404. Rents received in the year 2024-25 amounted to £45,617 (2023-24: £42,695). 

Dividends received were £13,215 (2023-24: £15,325) and interest from investments was £6,412 (2023-24: £5,845). 

During the year, £1,000 each was granted to St John PCC , St Mark PCC and St Mary with St Alban PCC. Out of the income received, £17,427 (2023-24: £15,544) was donated from the Promotion of Education Fund, £24,846 from the Relief in Need Fund (2023-24: £24,395), and £12,660 (2023-24: £5,160) was donated for wider social benefits.

During the year the Trustees reviewed sections of the Constitution of 1990 regarding the application of income to confirm and ensure compliance with them.
