         Financial performance
         The Land Trust ended the year with £144.7
         million of Funds carried forward, with £4.3
         million of this classified as General Funds.
         Investment returns on this portfolio remained
         consistent at 4% with total investment income
         of £5.1 million. This enabled us to manage our
         sites sustainably and to achieve our charitable
         outcomes. Costs were well controlled with a
         modest fall in spend on charitable activities to
         £5.8 million.
