Charity no: 525315
STEEPLE HOUSE, STEEPLE LANE, BRECON LD3 7DJ
Trustees’ Annual Report, Year Ending December 2024
In the year 2024, a total of 35 grants were awarded to young people of Brecon to help them with their academic or vocational studies either at university or college or in an apprenticeship, in accordance with the terms of the trust. The total value of these grants was £11,770, a 25% increase on the previous year. The young people were all aged between 16 and 24.
Rent from the offices and shop provide the main source of income. Four of the nine offices were empty for part of the year, and two new tenants moved in. All of the offices were occupied at the end of the year.
Following the installation of a new boiler with a remote control system, and other energy saving initiatives in 2023, energy usage has been monitored. Compared with the previous year, electricity consumption was reduced by around 50%, and gas consumption by around 16%. Routine maintenance of the building was carried out through the year as required.
The accounts show an increase in the end of year surplus compared with the previous year; this is mainly due to improved recovery of service charge, a fall in the cost of heating and lighting and unrealised gains from investments.
