## **Treasurers Report For the Annual General Meeting – 2025** 

## **- Income and Expenditure in the 2024 2025 financial year** 

The Year End Income and Expenditure report shows an income over expenditure on preschool running costs figure of £2,245, slightly less than the previous financial year when the year ended with a surplus of £2,362.    Surplus ringfenced ISF and EYPP funding will be carried forward for use to fund activities for the benefit of the children the additional funding was received for.  There was no DAF grant funding received within the year. 

## **- Fund Raising in the 2024 2025 financial year** 

Overall a total of £3,089 was raised in the year from which £1,395 was spent on running events, various items of gifts for staff and items of equipment leaving a net surplus of £1,694 in the year  which will be added to the ringfenced amounts brought forward from the previous financial year giving a £9,654 fundraising balance to carry forward to the 2025-2026 financial year. 

## **- Statement of Assets and Liabilities Report for the 2024 2025 financial year** 

The  Statement of Assets and Liabilities shows the asset figures for the 2024-2025 financial year, compared with the previous financial year. 

The pre-school holds assets of £59,760, the majority of which is held in the HSBC Money Manager Account which offers a small amount of interest.  All of these funds are held in contingency or are ringfenced as referenced, leaving a shortfall on the unreserved amount to carry forward for the 2025-2026 financial year of minus £16,880 

## **Contingency amounts** 

Certain amounts are held to for loss of income, staff redundancy liability and unforeseen building repair amount to £65,302.  In addition ringfenced amounts have been held in reserve to be carried forward to the following financial year, e.g. Fundraising balances, bringing the contingency total to £76,640. 

## **Finance projections for 2025-2026** 

Current projections indicate a potential £2,200+ surplus for the 2025-2026 financial year to end August 2026.  This takes into account current known uptake of additional hours throughout the academic year, which by the summer term the majority of sessions are close to or at full capacity, therefore, there is little room for increased income.  These projections are based on staffing levels as currently allocated and any surplus will vary dependent on additional hours paid to staff.
