|---|---|---|
|||**The original estimate for the Restoration**|
|||**of Susan dated 03 August 2010 was**|
|Achievementsagainst|Para1.41|**£100000. Since then, a change in**|
|objectivesset||**government legislation resulted in**|
|||**registered charities being unable to**|
|||**reclaim the VAT that had been paid. This**|
|||**increased the cost of restoration by**|
|||**£30000. Removal of the outside planking**|
|||**revealed that additional timbers needed**|
|||**to be replaced. This plus inflation**|
|||**increased the final estimate to £240000.**|
|||**The total money raised by 05 April 2021**|
|||**was £212657.**|
|Performanceoffundraising||**Fundraising has proved to be more**|
