## **Objectives and activities** 

## **Charitable purposes**

To relieve poverty and prevent poverty which may arise as a result of the above. *To encourage the advancement of citizenship among the people of Moray to support the purposes of the organisation. *To provide relief for those in need in Moray who may have suffered as a result of any disaster or mishap or illness or virus in Moray *To carry out any similar purpose which the Trustees may decide under the above objects. 

**Summary of the main activities** Through a public appeal substantial funds were generously donated by **in relation to these objects** local businesses and individuals. This then allowed the Charity to invite applications from individuals and families, via an online application form. The charity was considered to be a "funder of last resort" when all other avenues of support had been exhausted. All applications had to be supported by an independent professional referee who knew the financial situation. In excess of 600 applications were assessed and processed.

## **Achievements and performance** 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the financial period** 

Initially the fund was launched to provide relief to those suffering financially as a consequence of Covid 19. It operated until 30th September 2021 when the grant scheme was closed to individuals and families for that specific purpose. In the summer of 2022, when 108 Ukranians arrived in the Moray area, an award was made by Trustees to that group. During the financial year ended 31st March 2025 the only transactions through the bank accounts related to monthly interest earned on a Savings Account. This income amounted to £284. There was no expenditure. The charity is currently closed to applications. However funds totalling £23,396 are still held in the Bank Account, and these funds will be retained for distribution in the case of any future emergencies in Moray, as decided by the Trustees. 

## **Financial review**
