“Income from local listed investments 247,038”
Per its FY2025 accounts as filed with the Charity Commission.
Related-party transaction: Grant to St Benedict's Priory
“In year the Charity paid a grant of £165,377 to St Benedict's Priory (2024: £252,468) to support the living costs of the monks resident there. As stated in the Trustees report, the Charity considers this an incidental benefit as, before taking life vows, the monks divest themselves of personal property. They receive no salary from the Charity and the benefits they receive are purely to enable them to participate in the mission and ministry of the Community. At the year end the Trust owed St Benedict's Priory £977,589 (2024: £996,206). This is unsecured and repayable on demand.” — page 26
