In 2021 Covid continued to impact on our events.  We were unable to hold any face to face events. In spring we held our Sunflowers at home event. We made and delivered 108 sunflower packs and raised £750 for Bees for Development. 

We received a very generous legacy of £10,000 that helped uplift our income significantly. 

Our Christmas Appeal raised £8443 in donations – this includes donations received prior to 2020 year end. With gift aid we raised £10,098.  This is our best ever result and enabled us to give significant donations to Afrinspire and Chase Africa. 

This year the income from our Regular Givers has been critical to enabling us to continue to provide support. 

We received £2336 in gift aid from HMRC. 

In total we made gifts of £19830.  The donations made during the year are summarised below:
