K•y Facts and Figur•s
This year we have seen a 5.47%. drop in our income to £360,211 whth Is mainly due lo a decrease
in grant funding. Our expendriure has had a slight decrea88 to £373.643, which is 2.60V• less than
last year. mainly due to savirMJ Strategies. The overall loss was £13,432. which is slighltyloss than
the predlcled £14.167. thls Is in line with our expectations.
Durlng the reporting the Trustees have noted a (iecline in unro5triclod inKtrmo. particularfy
room hire. The Board intends to rebuild eam8d income through increased marketin9 (website and
