After a Child Dies - Bereavement Book Project	FY2024	£0	Note: Listed in grant-making cycle but no specific amount allocated in project list; likely covered under unrestricted income or staff costs (Sarah Thompson/Silvie Wallington). However, the text says 'employed Sarah Thompson... Silvie Wallington was commissioned'. No specific grant to an external institution is listed with an amount for this line item in the project section. The 'After a Child Dies' book project seems to be an internal ALMT activity or commissioning of individuals, not a grant to an institution. I will exclude if no amount/institution match. Re-reading: 'ALMT employed Sarah Thompson... Silvie Wallington was commissioned'. These are likely staff/contractors, not grants to institutions. I will skip this line item as it doesn't fit 'grant to institution' with a stated amount.
