Public Benoffts In exercising their powers and duttes, the trustees have had due regard to the guidance on public benefrt published by the Charty Commission.

DULDZIN DRAGPA KADAMPA BUDDHIST CENTRE TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT 'FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021 Everyone wishes for happiness. our ignorance of realty leads us to engage in non-virtuous actions, which in turn are the main cause of a51 our sufferirvJ. Furthemiore. if we do nol cultivate a good heart towards others. then our selfish motivation destroys the hamiony of our relats'onships Vth others. We then have peace, and no chance to gain pu hapPIsS. Wthout inner pea, outer peace is impossible, bolh personally and Ihroughout society. ACHIEVEMEKfs AND PERFORMANCE Classes and courses continued to be available online to support the local communty particularfy through lockdown restrictions early in the year. From May. cLgsses were offered in-Ferson from our main Centre in Epping. vknile most of our bfanch classes e reintroduced in August. Attendan for in-person dasses started low, but gradualty increased towards the end of the year as confidence for attending public events grew. By the of 2021, Duldzin Dragpa KBC had reopened 11 weekly General Sludy Pfogramme (GP) classes at 9 venues across Essex, East Hertfordshire and East London. In 2021. the Centre held sixteen short courses during the year, six half-day meditation retreats. four Buddhist retreats and an Ernprnnt in December. many of which were availat)le in-person ar¥J online. in addition to its The Foundation Programme (FP) vthich returned in-person. Monthly online memberships remained poputar and rnore Peop subscribed in 2021. The Charity intends to continue lo support the reopentng of lyanch classes vknile ¢ontinuiTrJ a range of lasses and courses online for people who cannot attend in-person. The voluntary positton of Educalion Programme Coordinator remaffts unflled but continues to be covered by the Resident Teacher and Administrative Director. FINANICAL REVIEW In accordance Imth the Charity Comrnission guidelines. the Charity has estabfished a policy as to the appropriate level of fr* reserves. The policy is reviewed annualty by the Trustees. and the level of resepies is monitored on a monthty basis. The Truslees COnser that free reserves should be retained in the bank sufficienl to cover in the order oflwo months of ovefhead expenditure. These reserves are hekl in order to maintain the basic operations of the Charity and to provide some suiety against adverse financial events, such as un-tjudgeted 8xpenditure. or failure to a¢he incorne tsrgets. Net income for the 12 months endiNJ 31& December 2021 was £19.548. ¥knich is £2.624 down on figures for 2020. This is rnainty attritHJtabk to a decrease in attendan for INestreamed classes and courses as restrictions started to ease. ¥thile confidence continued to be low for returning to in-person classes which were partially reintroduced HI August. Memtrerships femain a good source of income. Despite the reduction income. the charity remains l)u¢)yant V4ith stable funds re1ved from accommodation. The Centre's accornmodation has again remained fulty occupied thereby providing regular and stabl8 income to the Charity. Atthough we rernain cautious of juj iKome and attendance in 2021 due to effects ofthe pandemic. the Charity maintains confidence in meeling and expanding ts Short and long-term objectives while maintsining financaal stabw. 1/5/21 Robert Dennis
