received a donation of £50,IMM) from the Trust furf teprcsenting the release of ha]f the capital from the Greaves lega¢y
investment.
Ignoring these two factor￿ incorne is £235.419. whith is sirnilar lo 2022 and doesnl present a lo&$ of 'nonnai' in¢ome foT
2023.
This is due io Incre&￿ in planned givin& xKiaE events and other items slwwing &na]I variations in the year.
Expenditure on charitable activities has increased to £302J9512022- £290.835). The increw refiecis the
