## **IAN STEVENSON ARCHIVE TRUST (Charity Registration No 1181101)** 

**Annual Report for the period 01 April 2020 to 31 March 2021** 

This has been a frustrating year for the Trust.  The emergence of the Covid-19  pandemic  and  the  need  for  precautions  have  prevented access to Highcliffe Castle where the archive is housed.  So it has not been possible to do any work on the archive or make it available to the public. 

The  Trust  has  not  so  far  had  the  need  of  a  bank  account  as  all expenses  in  the  period  covered  by  this  report  have  been  met  by Bournemouth,  Christchurch  and Poole  Council (BCP), the  owners  of Highcliffe Castle and to whom the archive is on loan.  The Trust is aware, however, that a bank account will be necessary in the near future. 

**Agreed by the Trustees** Ian Stevenson (Chairman) Michael J Allen Mary T Asgharzadeh-Parsa
