Yes.

And we're not actively fundraising from the sector, although that said, we would never turn money away because we can always do something meaningful with it.

So we have donations last year of around 150,000 pounds, and last year we gave away about 700,000 pounds in grants to individuals and families.

Because we are a bespoke needs charity, so we can give you whatever it is you need, but we can only respond to the needs that come to our door.

So some years that money will be higher, and some years it might be lower, depending on whether someone asks for a new washing machine or whether they are having, I don't know, a heart transplant and can't go to work for a year.
