The Trust website, with an online 8rant appllcadon process. that was Introduced durlng the year Is provlng wccessful and generated a number of requests. Not all of these were approved by the Trustees as many were recelved from organlsadons whose athvltles are ¢)Utside the ￿rnIt of those mandated by the Trust oblectfves, However it was encouraglng to see that a number of appllcauons were received from or8anlsatlons that provlded support for the elderly or anlmals that wère not malnstream charltles. Many of these small organisatlons, run by enthu5ia5tlc volunteer5, requlre SUFport and the Trust was pleased to be able to help many of these small or8anisations durln8 the year.

The Trustees conslder that reserves at thls level will ensure that, in the event of a si8nlficant drop In fundln8, they wlll be able to continue the Trust's current athvltles whlle consideration 15 8iven to ways In whlch addltlonal funds may be ralsed.
