How we have funded our work

Incoming Resources 2021/22

Money received: £13.2 million Money spent: Total expenditure £21.7 million and a £9.22 million decrease in grant awards The strength of the charity continues to lie in public fundraising, which sees proportionately larger numbers of donations of smaller amounts of money, and as such we value each and every one of our generous donors. A significant proportion of income continues to be received from legacies, which is testament to our approach to fundraising, which is focused on building strong long-term relationships with our supporters. The statement of financial activities shows the total income for the year was £13.2 million. The target for the year was £11.2 million, so this is an overachievement of £2 million.
