## 5. Fixed assets investments note

Fixed Assets. These include our vehicles and the properties we own and lease to some former members of Port Staff (the Melita Property Scheme). Treating fixed assets in this way safeguards them for they are essential for the charity to operate. Since they are not liquid assets we designate a sum equal to the value of fixed assets. Fixed Assets – These include our vehicles and the properties we own and lease to some former members of Port Staff (the Melita Property Scheme). There were 3 vehicles sold in FY 24/25 and 2 new ones purchased for Lincolnshire and NE England. There was also a sale of one of the Melita properties at the end of the year.
