Chairs report April 2023 to April 24 We must first remember Jan 2024 and year started with the very sad new of Karen Spark’s sudden death. It was totally unexpected and did throw us quite a bit. We remember her with affection. However, the board game club decided to keep going partially in her memory. Rachel Gilmore the community builder was a great support and vital to the work of the charity. I would like to start by thanking her for all her work. The big news was the charity taking over the lease of the community centre in June 2023. This is the reason fpr the big rise in our turnover. It did cost about £1500 in legal fees, but we felt we had to keep the centre open. The Art group at the Parish Hall carried on really well. The 2023 fete which a success. We also held a Christmas tabletop sale. Lots of people came to both. We did look to recruit new trustees and volunteers. We did have people who wanted to help, but didn’t find a secretary. Litter pick and tidy up around the building went well. Building news We got a grant from ECOE to have the insulation upgraded in the building which has helped keep the building a more even temperature We also added pressure limiting valves on the hot water tanks in the kitchen to stop the water running constantly. This should save a bit of water. We were not able to change gas suppliers probably as the land registration was not sorted. We will revisit this when we can. We had a few parties and other lettings. The Soccer tots stopped using the building. Exwick Tots had some issues, but gained new leaders and we were hopefully it would work out, which it seems to have done. All in all a good year.

## _Notes_ The accounts are prepared on an income/expense basis, so do not include items which have not yet cleared the bank. In addition to the above, there are 3 outstanding cheques which have not yet been presented (£27 relating to the Adult Social Club and £1,675 relating to Kinnerton Way). There are also a small number of outstanding accounts in relation to Kinnerton Way (total value £409.17) and a planned expense estimated at £1,800 in relation to the lease for Kinnerton Way. ## _Reserves and Budgeting_ In June 2023 the charity took on the management of the Kinnerton Way Community Centre. For the 2023/24 financial year the centre incurred more expenses that income, however the running of the centre was supported by grant funding. It is anticipated that with increased prices (from Jan 2024) and increased usage the centre will become self-funding. Exwick Community Association has no other regular running costs. All activities are planned to be self-funding, either by means of income for the activity exceeding expenditure, or by means of grant funding to cover the costs. The main annual cost is Public Liability and Trustee Insurance (£201.44 in 2023). Based on this I propose maintaining a minimum reserve of £500.00 in the general funds.
