There has been the recruitment of a volunteer coordinator and a community outreach worker, with grants applied for to cover these investments. In the short term, some of the charity’s reserves have been utilised resulting in an operational deficit of approximately £9500 for this year. ## **Safeguarding** One safeguarding incident was recorded this year which was dealt with by the safeguarding officer and safeguarding trustee. There was no police involvement. ## **What do we want to do in the next year?** BDAA will continue to do what it’s doing, plus expanding the Dementia Aware Village project. _Note: Although there are a lot of “villages” in Bristol (with residents very proud of their village), some areas are really “communities”._ Bristol Dementia Action Alliance (BDAA) End of year Report 31°, May 2023 Profit and Loss Bristol Dementia Action Alliance For the year ended 31 May 2023 Turnover DonatlDrts RÈtiè LG,04147 Eventsincome 87.45 Granis 9.￿2. 2%431_>1 Costof Sales Direct Ew5e5 ,768.78 Tran5WrtC05ts sjo.so Gross Profit 16141 mini5trativeCosts Adyetysin8&>4arkeun& Audit&kcountanEyfeE5 D#piÈtiationEwns 401fX) Insuianhonp&lntrt Tr3vel- Natithal 471.39 456. 29.71177 Operating Profit I9￿L35> Profft on Ordinary P*tivities Before Taxation I9￿$L35) Profit afterTaxation 19SSL3SI Bristol Dementia Action Alliance (BDAA) End of year Report 31°, May 2023 Balance Sheet Bristol Dementia Action Alliance As at 31 May 2023 Fixed Assets ibieA55*ts CDmputef Ewuipment TotsiT•nObkAss*ts 845.20 945.20 T(¢al FLYEdh5sets 845JO CurreniAssets CJ$hatb￿kJnd*ThlWd cu[ro￿t￿£{]￿nl I9￿0.71 30.71 tpayment5 S79.84 TotalCUrre￿knQts 50BIIJ5 Creditors: amounts fallin Mernorycale PAYE Payat4e P*n*onSPa￿+ duewithin one e•r 76L.&2 204.24 314.13 Tc¢alcredkO￿o￿Wnts ￿ngdUt￿lthlDoTre)%ér 1242.79 Net CurrentA%sets (Liabilities) 48961.76 Totsi Assets le55 Current Llabiiff
