Year End Financial Posi�on

due of £3,100.00, which have since been se�led.

In September 2023 we installed a PV System. This has been most successful, reducing our kWh usage for the following 10 months by 45%. In addi�on, we exported the equivalent kWh to the grid. This has reduced any impending threat to the charity, by way of energy costs.

No other threats are envisaged.

We have current policies in place such as Financial and An�- Fraud, which are regularly updated.
