The table above demonstrates						The			Garden's strong			rebound after		the		COVID	pandemic. This has					been
underpinned by a stringent					control		over costs and a solid						visitor footfall.		The operating			revenue surpluses				are
reinvested in the operations					of The			Garden,		with decisions made by trustees on a							case-by-case basis.				There
are primarily three areas		for			ongoing			investment to expand					and enhance	the		Charity's	public			benefit which	are:
Firstly, delivering		The			Garden's				social	impacts through its Community						and Education			activities. A
significant amount			is also received from external								donations to supplement this						however			in recent years
there has been less				reliance		on			external donations			due to the healthy				cash flows The			Garden has been
able to generate.
Secondly, capital		investment					required			as part ofthe			infrastructure	maintenance			plan.
Thirdly, investment				in	the development					of new projects such as the envisaged							Education Centre and
Lilidorei developments.
