Trustees Annual

Report for Tax Year

Ending 31/03/2025

In 2024 we had our annual summer Festival running from July 20 to August 18[th] . We found it more difficult again this year to obtain Grants and in obtaining Sponsors from local companies.

However we were therefore able to provide grants to Event holders who applied for them.

The majority of the Events were well attended and enjoyed by all. Once again over 98% of our Events were Free to the public and open to all ages /abilities/religions etc

We again found it difficult to get volunteers to help with Marshalling etc. but this appears to be a local issue suffered by other organizations

We produced a 44-page program and had 7500 copies printed which were distributed Free of charge within our local area. Advertisers helped to cover the costs of the printed program.
