## **Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2025** 

The charity had a satisfactory year.  Scheduled donations were received as expected and the range of projects approved for support grew. Apart from initial web site cost and payment to The Funding Regulator there were no operating costs or expenses.  Interest in the charity and its work is growing strongly. 

The trustees remain confident that the charity is meeting its objectives.

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31/12/2025. 

As the charity trustees of the Trust, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).
