## **Section E Financial review**
We successfully raised £20,553 through a mix of charitable fundraisers, **Brief statement of the** donations, and grants. During the same period, our expenditures totaled **charity’s policy on reserves** around £13,116, which was allocated to essential supplies for our nightly outreach services. This included cooking ingredients, toiletries, equipment, and emergency accommodation and food parcels. We sadly lost everything we owned in a storage fire six months into the year, but the community has come together and helped us raise an amazing amount of funding to help us build back up to where we are today.
