TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR YEAR END 31[st] DECEMBER, 2020
As with most things, Covid-19 has had a great impact on what we have been able to do and the income we have been able to receive.
Except for “emergency” repairs, we have had to limit the general upgrade of properties as had been our previous custom.
Some of our tenants experienced difficulty in payment their rents, and in the case of a restaurant, we reduced the rent by half while they established a take-away method. Another tenant was a musician/teacher/lecturer and found himself unable to carry on during this period. We reduced his rent to just a token rent of £20 per month until he was able to find other temporary employment, and then gradually increased to approx. halfrent.
However, we have still been in a position to give university grants to five students totalling £7500 and provide our regular annual donations to local charities amounting to £9500
We have continued with providing finance to maintain the church, churchyard and church hall of St.Mary’s, Puttenham.
On behalf of the Trustees,
Christine Rutter (Trustee) PUTTENHAM TRUST
