The trustees will conduct all these activities with regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. **Summary of the main** In the year to 31 December 2025, the Trust received bank interest of £1. **activities undertaken for the** Apart from bank charges totalling £60, there were no other financial **public benefit in relation to** transactions in the year. **these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)**
