What the accounts disclose

Related-party transaction: The document explicitly states in Note 11 that there were no related party transactions for the year ended 31 May 2025. However, the Trustees' Report (Page 9) mentions donations from related parties (Nicole Schnackenberg and Peter Cooper, who are Trustee Directors) in the form of a peppercorn lease and waived utility costs. Note 11 contradicts the narrative description of 'related party' status for these specific transactions or implies they were not recorded as such in the financial notes. Per Rule 1, we extract only what is explicitly stated in the financial notes regarding the disclosure section.
