## **Bryan Lancaster Trust Annual Report 1.8.24.-31.7.25** The Bryan Lancaster Trust is a small independent Quaker trust which gives small grants mainly to charities in Cumbria and the North West. It also supports national charities that work with people in need in the North West. It supports some Quaker work and supports charities overseas that have a British base. The trustees met four times in the reporting period. There have been no changes of trustees. We continue to prioritise supporting local groups. Our investments and our CCLA holdings continue to be managed by Brewin Dolphin. They produce an annual statement which is clear, concise and specific to us. We had our annual meeting with our broker in June. Carter Jonas our land agent, who collects rents and negotiates on our behalf on matters regarding the land which the trust owns, was acquired by GSC Grays in May 2024. We are waiting for advice on the review of the rents on our agricultural holdings. ## **Income** The trust’s investments gave an income of £21,602 Bank interest was £0 Rents totalled £3523 **Total Income: £25,125** ## **Expenses** Property Insurance: £876 Professional fees: £312 Sundry expenses (postage etc) £50 Grants totalled: **£24,700** Institutions: **£24,600** Individuals: **£100** **Grants** were made for the relief of social exclusion in Kendal and both rural and urban areas community projects predominately in Cumbria and the North West children and family health disability and medical charities education projects Quaker projects **Projects overseas via UK agencies:** Virtual Doctors Village by Village Red Cross (Gaza) UNHCR (Ukraine) Humanity and Inclusion (Gaza) School Gambia Quaker International Education Trust (Ramallah) HealthProm We Reach UK (Kenya) EACP East Africa Children for Health Christian Aid (Sudan) ShelterBox Water Aid Transform Trade **Grants given in support of the relief of poverty in Kendal was in excess of 2% of our income.** **Charity Name No (if any) Bryan Lancaster Trust 222902 Receipts and payments accounts CC16a For the period** Period start date Period end date **To from** 01/08/2024 31/07/2025 ## **Section A Receipts and payments** |**Section A Receipts and payments**||||| |---|---|---|---|---| |**A1 Receipts**
