## **ANNUAL REPORT 2024** ## **CHAIR’S REPORT:** ## **Activities:** Lyndy’s received donations from individuals and made gifts consistent with its charitable purpose. Notable donations included c£1600 raised through sponsorship of family activities and c£1600 from the Afternoon Tea fundraiser organised my ~~—~~ Donations were made to Tollcross Primary School and Kumbaya School. Work continued to establish a programme to help underprivileged children in an Edinburgh School receive training on how to ride a bicycle. EJorts were interrupted by several staJ changes and although the scheme was not initiated during the financial year, it did get underway in May 2025. ## **Finance:** During the year to 7[th] January ’25, Lyndys’ received £11936. Gifts totalling £5746 were made to Tollcross Primary School (£2000) and Kumbya School (£3746) consistent with the Charity’s purposes. There were no expenses incurred and the closing bank balance at 31[st] December 2024 was £6190. ## **STRATEGY AND OUTLOOK** The cycling project at Granton Primary started in May 2025 at an expected cost of c£23000, depending on the extent of repair work required to reinstate the existing bike fleet and staJ cover needs. Once up and running, publicity about all three projects will be used to continue fundraising from new and existing sources. Subject to board approval, the aim is to make further gifts to Tollcross, Kumbaya, and Edinburgh cycling projects consistent with the Charity’s purposes. ## **PROCESS:** Pursuant to s19 of the Constitution, one third of the Trustees were selected at random to retire and were re-appointed at a subsequent board meeting.
