The figures for the year 2020 were severely affected by the COVID19 pandemic and the subsequent lockdown. 2021 was initially also very quiet but as the lockdown restrictions eased we saw a very rapid pick up in activity and one of, if not the busiest, Q3 periods we have seen. The Charity then reached the milestone of £1 Million raised and granted by mid November 2021.
Analysis of the above figures shows that in a typical year just over 50% of our grants are classified as "Small" ie £1,000 and under, andrequire 20% to 25% of our grant funding. This shows the importance of small targeted grants to help families. These figures have been consistent for the last 5 years since we began detailed analysis.

Current and Future Events in 2021:
The Quiz Night (15th January) have now been postponed until 5th March due to the position with Covid.
We have already had a busy start to the year so any funding is a great help, and we would like to thank Sunrise Medical, who once again collected for us, and the funds raised in 2021 have just been added to our reserves.
