Whilsl being pleased with our general financial performance through the year, in May 2024 we received very substantial legacy of £278,000 from Ihe estate of Malcolm Glayzer, which has meant that we have been able to record a large surplus this year.

These events were supplemented by an amazing array of fundraising challenges completed by numerous supporters of the charity. some of which are highlighted below. Once again, our many members and supporters exhibrted wonderful generosity in donating to the charity, and we received significant donations from a numbef of Trusts and Pharmaceutical companies. As in previous years, the team managed our costs effectively, and we benefited from lower event costs and from operating for periods without a full staff complement.
