## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Significant events** 

The year ended 28 February 2022 has been a difficult year due to COVID19. COVID19 had a significant impact worldwide and Ehsan Trust UK was no exception. Donations received were lower than usual as donees had less disposable income and at the same time there was an increase in the number of poor and needy in need of help in India. This is reflected in the performance of the charity in the year.
