Brightlingsea Church Lads and Girls Brigade - Bikeability	FY2022	£602	Note 13 (From Francis Trust)
Giving - Relief and Development Agencies	FY2022	£394	Note 3(a) aggregates these. Note 13 breaks them down.
Disasters Emergency Committee - Parkistan Flood Appeal	FY2022	£307	Note 13
PCC Charitable Giving	FY2022	£300	Note 3(a) lists 'PCC Charitable Giving' as 300. Note 13 lists 'PCC Charitable Giving' as 250? Let's re-read Note 13 carefully. Note 13 lists: 'PCC Charitable Giving' 250. Note 3(a) lists 'PCC Charitable Giving' 300. There is a discrepancy. Note 13 says 'These gifts to charity have arisen through...'. Note 3(a) is the main expenditure note. Usually, the detailed note (13) is more specific. However, Note 3(a) has 300. Note 13 has 250. Let's look at the 'Percentage of Voluntary Giving' line. It says 2.0%. Total voluntary income is 167,389. 2% is ~3347. This doesn't help. Let's look at the 'Christmas Tree Festival' line in Note 13. It lists 'Deanery Christians Against Poverty Officer' and 'Essex Clergy Charity Corporation' but no amounts next to them in the 2022 column? No, the amounts are above. 'PCC Charitable Giving' 250. 'Deanery...' and 'Essex...' are listed below with no amounts in the 2022 column? Or are they part of the 250? The layout is tricky. 'PCC Charitable Giving' 250. Then 'Deanery Christians Against Poverty Officer' and 'Essex Clergy Charity Corporation' are listed below. In 2021, 'PCC Charitable Giving' was 300. In 2022, Note 3(a) says 300. Note 13 says 250. I will trust Note 3(a) for the total expenditure figure, but Note 13 for the breakdown. If Note 13 only lists 250 for 'PCC Charitable Giving', and the other two items have no amounts, it's possible the 300 in Note 3(a) includes the 250 plus something else, or the 250 is the specific named grant. Given the rule to extract named grantees, and 'PCC Charitable Giving' is a generic name, I will extract the specific names if available. 'Deanery Christians Against Poverty Officer' and 'Essex Clergy Charity Corporation' are named but have no amounts in 2022 column in Note 13. I will exclude them as amounts are not stated. I will include 'PCC Charitable Giving' with the amount from Note 3(a) (300) or Note 13 (250)? Note 3(a) is the primary expenditure record. Note 13 is a supplementary note. The sum of Note 13 items: 141+53+220+69+18+307+50+53+602+200+146+250 = 2109. Note 3(a) total for charitable giving lines: 194+394+53+1118+300 = 2059. There is a mismatch. 194 (Missionary) matches 141+53. 394 (Relief) matches 220+69+18+307. 53 (Home Mission) matches 50+? Note 13 has 50 for Brigade and 53 for Children's Society. 50+53=103. Note 3(a) has 53. This is confusing. Let's look at Note 3(a) again. 'Home Mission' 53. Note 13 'Home Mission' section has 'Brightlingsea Church Lads and Girls Brigade' 50 and 'Childrens Society' 53. Sum 103. Note 3(a) says 53. This suggests Note 3(a) might be net or different. However, Note 13 is titled 'Charitable Giving' and lists 'These gifts to charity...'. It seems Note 13 is the detailed breakdown of Note 3(a) items 'Giving to Missionary Societies', 'Giving - Relief...', 'Home Mission', 'Secular Charities', 'PCC Charitable Giving'. But the sums don't match perfectly. Note 3(a) 'Secular Charities' is 1,118. Note 13 'Secular Charities' section lists Colchester Night Shelter (200), Brightlingsea Royal British Legion (146), PCC Charitable Giving (250). Sum = 596. This is far from 1,118. There must be other secular charities not listed in Note 13 or the 1,118 includes other things. Note 13 says 'The PCC has made donations as shown below.' implying this is the full list. The discrepancy suggests Note 3(a) might include other costs or the Note 13 breakdown is incomplete or I am misinterpreting the columns. Let's look at the 2021 column in Note 13. Total Charitable Giving (Excl Christmas Tree Festival) is 800. Note 3(a) 2021 total for those lines: 220+220+134+800 = 1374. The Note 13 total is 800. Note 3(a) 'PCC Charitable Giving' is 300. Note 13 'PCC Charitable Giving' is 300. Note 13 total is 800. Note 3(a) sum of specific lines is higher. This implies Note 3(a) includes other items or Note 13 is a subset. However, Note 13 title is 'Charitable Giving'. I will extract the named grantees from Note 13 as they are explicitly named with amounts. For 'PCC Charitable Giving', it is a generic name. I will include it if it's the only option for that line. But Note 3(a) has 'PCC Charitable Giving' 300. Note 13 has 'PCC Charitable Giving' 250. I will use the amounts from Note 13 for the named items. For 'PCC Charitable Giving', since it's not a specific institution name, I might exclude it or include it as is. The prompt asks for
PCC Charitable Giving	FY2022	£250	Note 13
PCC Charitable Giving	FY2022	£250	Note 13. This appears to be a general category or specific gift not named further in the breakdown, but listed as a distinct line item in Note 13 under 'Secular Charities' section header but separate from the named ones. Wait, looking at Note 13 structure: 'Secular Charities' header, then 'Colchester Night Shelter', 'Brightlingsea Royal British Legion...'. Then a separate line 'PCC Charitable Giving' with 250. It is listed under the charitable giving note. I will include it.
Refugee Action - Colchester	FY2022	£220	Note 13
Colchester Night Shelter	FY2022	£200	Note 13
Giving to Missionary Societies	FY2022	£194	Note 3(a) lists 'Giving to Missionary Societies' as a line item. Note 13 breaks this down into 'Beacon of Hope' (£141) and 'Embrace' (£53). However, Note 3(a) aggregates these under 'Giving to Missionary Societies'. The prompt asks for named grantees where stated. Note 13 explicitly names 'Beacon of Hope' and 'Embrace'. I will extract the specific named entities from Note 13 as they are the actual recipients.
