## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025** 

During the year the Charity received a dividend of £23,200. We paid out all our income to three charities. 

We continued to support their bursary programme at King’s College School, Wimbledon with a donation of £6,600. We made a donation to Farms for City Children, a charity which was formed by Michael Morpurgo and his wife, which gives deprived city children the opportunity to experiece life on a farm.  We also sponsored two musicians to enable them to be part of the National Youth Orchestra for a year. 

The object of The Valentine Charity continues to be  “advancing the education of young people in such ways as are exclusively charitable (according to the laws of England and Wales) as the trustees may from time to time determine, including but not limited to, providing grants to educational institutions and other charitable bodies to enable them to provide bursaries to students from low income families or from disadvantaged backgrounds and /or communities”.
