Charitable Donations
This financial year featured the launch of Remembering Bears. Our Turnover, including Kickstarter funds, book, print, ticket & auction sales and sponsorships, amounted to £326,380 (2022: £398,863), which resulted in a gross profit of £213,604 (2022: £239,930) after Cost of Sales, at an improved gross profit margin of 65.5% (2022: 60.2%). In a challenging and inflationary year our Administrative Costs including marketing & websites, accounting & professional fees, bank & kickstarter fees, travel, IT and administrative staff costs remained steady at £119,421 (2022: £115,392) meaning we were delighted to be able to make donations of £99,776(2021: £128,188) to conservation projects, representing 46.7% of gross profit and 100% of net profit. The net deficit for the year of £5,692 compares to a small deficit in 2022 of £3,691.
Considering we launched Remembering Bears in another challenging year with inflationary and cost of living pressures, I am delighted with these numbers and that we have been able to help so many conservation projects as a result. Indeed,I am very proud that this year saw our aggregate donations to conversation projects since the Remembering Wildlife series began exceed £1 million. Of course, it would not be possible without the support and contributions from our many supporters to all of whom I am truly grateful.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies entitled to the small companies' exemption.
