Volunteers
The Foundation depends heavily upon the contribution of volunteers - their time. their expertise.
their money.
The day to day running of the Foundation is carried out on an entirely voluntary basis by the
TTuslees with the assistance of staff generously provided by our Chaimian, Mr A J Rizzo. at nil
cost lo the Foundation.
The annual Altem2tive Hair Show, cuffenlly the Foundation's main source of income, comprises a
spectacular array of on-stage productions by hairdressing artistic teams from across the world who
give their services entirely free of Gharge.
"Imagine-. The 2020 Altérnativo Hair Show
Due to the Covid pandemic we had to stage Ihe Show in virtual formal and we were most
impressed by the imaginative venues that our performers chose to feature their highly creative
perfomiances. We believe this is a great credit to the prof8ssion and induslry woddwide. Alas the
prO￿edS were severely down on last year but we nevertheless raised a creditablè £43,478.
The Trustees extend profound thanks to our loyal online audience, the sponsors, and all who
supported the Show in any way.
A¢hievemenls for the year
The total sum raised at the 2020 Show was dispersed in charitable grants and so, with an addition
from funds caned foMard, we granted a total of £65,000 lo the vital causes listed in the accounts.
Public Benefit
We are awa￿ of the Charity Commission's public benefit guidelines and consider that the work we
have funded during the Course of the year falls entirely within those guidelines.
Financial Review and Reserves
We do not grant or commit funds beyond our actual financial reSoUr￿s. Our day to day running
costs are generously covered by our Chairman, Mr Rizzo and his business operation. The state of
the Foundation's finances is, therefo￿, sound.

We convert funds ralsed and given into charrtable grants for public benefit as soon as is practicably
possible and reSe￿e suffici8nt funds to cover the venue deposit and insurance for the next yearfs
Allemative Hair Show which is Currently our main source of income.
Due to the continuing uncertainties caused by the Covid pandemic, we have decided that the 2021
Show "Illuminare. will also be virtual. The date is already fixed for the weekend 9110 October
2021.
Investment Policy
Bearing in mind the reserves policy oulined above. the TTUStees do not have any sizeable funds to
invest. Due to the paucity of bank interest rates the amount received in interest was minimal.
