Gentlemen Songsters Male Voice Cholr Treasurers Report 2024 2024 wa5 a reasonably successful year financially a5 our record5 indicate that we improved our finances by £11,632.60 with a "pot" of £38,422.60 available to cover future expenses. Some members will now be expecting a "howeverf.-. ......and here it comes. However, It should be noted that this year we have received several extraordlnary one-off payments: . l. We have to thank ffleMbe of the executive for obtsining a substsntial donation from Ward James Chappel In the sum of £4,5CK).W {which wlll be repeated for the next 2 years), 2. Because of our magnfficent perfornance at the Autumn Concert wlth Carley Paoli. she waived her performance fee on the proviso that we san8 Wlth her at her Nottin8ham Albert Hall Concert on the 2151 December 2024, thereby "saving" the Choir £2,460.fX). 3. The 2024 account includes £2,IC.(Kj payments for the Norwlch jaunt In July thls year which obviously have to be discounted as it will be an actual expenditure this year. 4. We have also received £l,010.(Kl In donations from 6 funerals over the last 12 months. 5. The total of the above 15 £10.070.00 All the above are "extraordlnary- in as much as they cannot be depended on as guaranteed incomes going forward. Even the WJC donation is not guaranteed. Our adjusted surplus Income. therefore. of £1,526.60 is a better reflection of where we are financially. It is also pleasin8 that we would have actually ueated a surplus without these windfalls. f the additional wlndfalls had not materialised, our totsl available funds would be £28,402.60 which would probably keep us viable for 2 - 3 years, even if we have to battle through another lock-down. So whilst we are relatively "comfortable" we cannot be complacent. Whi15t that Is a satlsfylng outcome, It has actually made us look harder at how we create our income. Over the years we have staged big concerts With notsble guests at big venues such as DTH or the Civic In Brierley Hill. Given that these days we do not sell anywhere near enough tickets ft)r these expensive venues we are looking for smaller (hence less costly) venues and perhaps aim a little lower as far as Guests are
concerned Irf we invite any at all). This will, to a degree. reduce the reliance we place on Choir members to sell lots of tickets. A quickly expanding repertoire may also help for internal sales. We made a statement last year about covering our unavoidable costs (rehearsal room hire, Concert vertue deposits and music team specifically) early in the year. We need to ensure that these costs are covered early as we cannot rely on Concert Incomes anymore. The only major Concert that we have made any money from for the last 2 years is the Black Country Showcase (again, thanks Phlll and that is only because the guest artists do not ask for a fee. We have to create a "financial cushion" that will cover our known expenditure at the start of the year a5 we are not now guaranteed to make any money from Concerts. The issued spreadsheet actually shows a healthy balance between income and expendlture for the Concerts themselves, but much of the surplus was from Carley droppin8 her performance fee along with income from the smaller venues such as Retirement Villages and pubs at Chr15tmas. Unfortunately. funeTa15 also come into thls cate80ry. We would Ilke to thank Mlke Green and his family or raising £995 vla his T3ffles at our Major concerts this year. Bucket collections have also raised £660 which wlll be donated to CharFty(s). Despite this reports rather downbeat appra15al of our tlcket sales, we would like to thank the Choir member5 for their efft)rts in selling tickets for Concerts over the last year and can only ask for a concerted {excu5e the pun - same one as last year) effort this coming Concert Season. Our running costs are, not surprisingly, stlll Sncreasin8. This year, we spent £11,400 on rehearsal venue, music team and admin costs alone. You may be aware that Tom Bate made an application to the Lottery Fund for funding of £12,000. We are sorry to say that it has been initially denied as 'Applying for funding for new uniforms does not comply with makin8 good use of public money". Other Choirs have, however, been successful with thls type of application. We are 80ing to review the other options and re•apply later in the year. As for un1f0m, we are stlll looking at options to renew our Concert uniform. We have looked at a number of options ran8in8 from gawdy to plain and wlll report to the Choir and discuss with the members later In the year. In line with all of the above. and following our January Executive Committee meetin& we have decided the followin& for 2025:_ l. The subscription will increase from £180 to £200pa (stlll only £4 pwl following this AGM. 2. Members who have already been In the Choir for over 40 year5 will not have to pay a membership subscription.
- Members currently in the Choir who have already completed 35+ years will NOT have to pay a membership subscription.
- Members who achieve 35 years after the AGM on the 27th January wlll pay SO% of the membership subscription. including all subsequent years.
- If any member feels that they are unable to pay this or would Ilke US to consider acceptin8 an alternative payment route. please talk to one of the members of the executive committee asap. Last year we continued with our policy of Charitsble Donations to several Charities. Our exec & our trustees suggested that we donate to the two of the charities we supported last year- IRonnies Room and Brierley Hill Foodbank) - who were so Impressive13st year. It has been agreed that durin8 the coming year we wlll actively seek & to prioritise Charities who will work with us to or8anise and actively raise funds jolntly wlth us via our concerts. The 700 Club sadly died the death of a mlllion locusts last year. However, if anyone would like to take up the challenge and get it restarted, please let Steve Hale know. It could still be a valuable source of income for the choir. The final account has been agreed and signed by our auditors so I will make the balance sheet and income/expenditure summary available to any member that would Ilke a copy. I will be free to answer any questions, on a one-to-one basis, after the AGM. Onward and upward 111 Stephen Hale (Treasurer) January 202S
