Performance
During the period, there were 2 grants awarded.
Tudor House for gentlefolk of limited means £1000
This is a very small charity in financial terms, although the property it occupies is large and rambling, and expensive to maintain. The charity found itself trying to raise funds to maintain the building for its residents to ensure the building could continue to provide homes for those in need. The trustees agreed that a grant of £1000 should be offered to start work on rebuilding a wall that had collapsed into the garden.

Help a Squaddie £135
Help A Squaddie’s main goal when formed was to help rehouse Homeless Ex Service Personnel. Their main objective is helping struggling Veterans get the help when and where they need it. Working with other Agencies and Organisations enables them to get direct and fast acting help to struggling Ex Military Personnel in need. As part of lockdown, the trustees took part in an online charitable quiz and agreed to match the funding of those participating in the quiz to a charity chosen by the winners.
