## **The 2025 Event** 

Thriplow Daffodil Weekend, the event that raises the funds administered by The Trust, took place on 22[nd] and 23[rd] March this year. We had an extremely good year, and a surplus of £80,000 was generated. The continued support of villagers, our landowners, and the enthusiastic visitors attending the event, combined to deliver this great result for our charities. 

## **Meetings** 

Three meetings of the Trustees were held during the financial year, on 28[th] January 2025, 9[th] April 2025 and 4[th] June 2025. These meetings covered, respectively, the general business of the Trust and the distribution of funds (Grants).

## **Finance** 

During this year payments have been made in respect of Grants made, but not drawn down in previous years, and part and full payment of Grants made in 2025. You will note that we remain in a healthy financial situation and in an excellent position to meet our “Objects” in future years.
