Firstly I'd like to say a big'yhank you!" to my fellow members. olthe treasury team aDd to
my co-signats)ries for cheques- without which the Tre&%ury area could noi fuDclion.
S¢¢ondly pltrdse Dote thaL &8 we did for last yeaT. all figU￿S this y¢ar have been rounded to
whole pound amounts &8 per the recotnmendations of our Inde￿dent inspector5. This makc5
the figures a little easier to read (and the underlying amounts are still in pence and Match to
the penny), but tt is p)ssible in the aDnual accouuts we may owasionally a 5urn where
the total is £1 diff¢Tcnt from Ihe to¢al of th¢ items being summed.

Regulars will recall th81 in 2023 we a delayed gift aid claim thai Pushed £4909.93 into
January 2024 from D¢cember 2023. Th8nkfvlly we avoided thai h8pp¢ning again th 2024
AND in 2025. bui it stRII means that 2024 figures ate impacled and this needs to be
So the he￿lItie position is that our income wag dowtt IO% vs 2024- but laking into account
the gift aid movemeni the underlying position was a reduction of 4% instead.
Additionally, Ioh {i.e. a quarter of the decrease) was a reduction in building hire proceeds as
Gat¢way stopped usin8 the New Lodge buildin8 last summer (this also means that it will be
lower or zero in 20261.
While this 4Tr/0 reduction v5 2024 is not ideal, it is still better than the underlying income for
2023 whi¢h (after transferring back the delayed Gift aid frDm 2024) would have been £70558
- so this is 7Vo mor¢ in ¢&sh t¢rnis than the underlying Fx)sition for 2023 - or roughly standing
slill when allowins for two y¢ar5 of inflation.
On the expendittwe side. we mor¢ in 2025 than in 2024 but this was in the main iwauge
we swapped building work around due ￿ availability of personnel- T¢novatin8 an oiyice in
2024 and refurbffishing the kitchen in 2025 - both involved signif￿( floor rcpairs and wall
insulation in addilion to what you stt today.
Speakers, evenkn Iraining. expenses etc. are up- reflecting an on8oin8 emphasis on vanous
training courses including safeguarding. bygiene, MIT, ctc..
Utility costs decreased by over 25V•- reflecting a generdl stsbilisation in gas ond electricity
for business users (which unlike retail customer5 is noi capped) 8nd a reduction in
consumption due to rcduccd hirc of thc Ncw Lodge building and efficiency improvements
through buildin8 insulation and LED lighting panels.

G¢n¢ral incom¢ is down £5￿2 vs 2024- but this is D)ore than matched by an tncTease of
£5601 in the Church Worker fund- so pmbably reflects changes in ￿vIng following thc
announcement by AOG GB that ihe annual contribution is rising from 3% to 41J/o from July
2025 (this onty inipacts unrestricteAJ funds- i.e. the GeneTrl Fund.)
Buildin8 hire by Gateway now ended - but vthile thi5 means we will have a modest
reduction in incomc. th1.5 will also be partly off5Ct by ￿ccd utility bi115 and - most
imporlantly - it clears the way for our planned InCr￿c in usage of the New Lodge building in
