The amount available to distribute in 2020-21 was the original £ 50,000 with fees of £ 5,000. At the meeting held on 18th September (there was no meeting in June 2020) grants were approved for £ 7,200 leaving a further £ 42,800 available for distribution. A discussion took place regarding the Trust’s investments and whether a capital transfer would be necessary to fund property refurbishment. There was a general agreement that the fund had performed well and so it was AGREED that £100,000 be transferred from investments for property refurbishment and to be reinvested in the future.
