wrth the charty in a professional manner, or from involvement in the activities.
Some Trustees have been aware of the Charitys activities bul been involved.

activities - tutors lo lake the sessions, a Cwrdinalor to handle administralvm and

Activities and rgview
The year started with the the last of the ￿￿oUgh payments from the govemment, and the last
months of the Victoria Hall rent amnesty.
Classes continued wrth Covid restrictions until March 2022, although the building sts"Il
Continued lo have some rules still in place.
The classes have not returned to their pre Covid level. It is possible they never will, af(hough
it is expected that there will be a gradual increase in numbers over the next year 01 ￿0.
The main event of the last year has been the large bequest that Age Active received from an
unknown lallhough not anonymousl benefaGtor. The sum totslled £104,000, and was part of
a bequest that benefited a number of charities. some local. some national.
The donor was completety unknown lo Age Active. and no connection could be found. We
were left to believe that he had known someone who altended the classes.
The money is extremely timely. The organi5akn.on has been running at a loss since restarting.
as was expected, but this now means that the next few years, at least. will be viable. 11 is
now poSsi￿e to think ahead and Consider the organiSat￿)n as having a fvlure.
