the impactwas carriedforwardto this year (2021-22),affectingboththe typeand amountof youthwork provided by
the charity, and the income derived from its trading arm 127 Trading Limited.

At the start of the financialyear (2021-22)the UK was emerging from COVID lockdownsand following the roadmap for
easing COVID-restrictions although it was not until 24 February 2022 that all COVID-rules were finally removed.

resumed from July 2021 and post-lockdowns,the use of the building by the youth teams and young people has steadily
increased with more open access and other scheduled activities and events.

Operating and Financial Review for the Year Ended 31 March 2022

Funding

The charityreceived significantand helpfulsupportfrom many quartersincludingfundingfrom The Big Lottery,a  Back
to BusinessLoan,and grantsfrom Mid SuffolkDistrictCounciland the SuffolkCommunityFoundation.All support and
individualdonors have been invaluablein supportingyouth work and educationalsupport in Suffolk and helping secure
the future for the charity.

Trading

Cabbagesand Kings was closed for the public for extended periods of time during 2021-22 and many of the team were
furloughedtoprotecttheirjobsandtheincome.TheTrusteesofTheMixagreedtoarentholidayforCabbages and
Kings during those difficult times (although the rent was subsequently re-instated from April 2022).

At the end of 2021, Mid Suffolk District Council awarded the cateringcontractto 127 Trading Limited to run a café and
visitor centre at Needham Lake, Needham Market called the Duck and Teapot. The café opened in March 2022.

The room hire operation,Book-a-Spacewas alsosignificantlyaffectedby closuresonlypartiallyoperatingthrough the
year. After resuming operations,there was greater use of meeting rooms with long-term / block booking of "The  Cave"
forfourdaysaweekforTogetherProject,"TheDrawingRoom"forfivedaysaweek(fourbySuffolkCounty Council
andonebytheTogetherProject)and"TheLionandtheUnicorn"foronedaybytheThriveProject.Whilst this
supports more youth work and brings income, it has reduced the availabilityfor other / ad hoc bookings significantly so
with the large event space "Underlands" being the only long-term space now freely available.
