16 POST BALANCE SHEET EVENT
The potential global impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on equity values had occurred prior to the UK lockdown in late March and is reflected in the Trust's balance sheet at 31 March 2020. Subsequently equity values have recovered partially and as at 1 July 2020 the value of the Trust's investments was approximately 10% higher than at the balance sheet date. Though the Trust is anticipating lower income from investments and member activities in 2020/21 as a result of Covid-19, cost savings are also being achieved during the period of Covid-19 restrictions. The overall impact upon the Trust's financial position is not expected to be substantial in the short term.
