Louisa Alice Kay FundFY2022£102Grants to individuals/necessitous persons (Note 6a lists this as expenditure on charitable activities for the fund itself, but Note 12 clarifies the fund makes grants to individuals. However, Note 6a explicitly lists 'Louisa Alice Kay Fund' under 'Expenditure on charitable activities - Restricted' with amount 102. Wait, looking at Note 6a again: 'Louisa Alice Kay Fund ... 102'. This seems to be an administrative cost or small grant. Let's look at the main grant list in Note 6a.
