**THE FRIENDS OF OUR LADY OF VICTORIES** 

## _**ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 3 OCTOBER 2023**_ 

## **TREASURER’S REPORT (2022 - 2023) / SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTS** 

FOLV’s total Opening Balance was £61,369 as at 1[st] of September 2022 and total Closing Balance was £65,223 as at 31[st] of August 2023. 

##  Income 

FOLV raised a total of **£53,783** last year, an incredible effort by all concerned. 

**71% of FOLV** revenue came from **parental donations, employer matching and Gift Aid.** The final figure for the year has grown from last year to an amazing £38,448, including all employer/ company gift matching & Gift Aid.  The growth came from the processing of Gift Aid claims relating to prior years; actual parental donations have decreased by over £7,000 since last year and we are in urgent need of new regular donors. 

**27%** was raised via the organisation of Fund-raising events.  Following the disruption of the past few years, we focused on returning the school to the full calendar of events and increasing participation in these. 

The remaining **2%** was raised through EasyFundraising. 

## **Profit per event:** 

- The **Silent Auction** was the most profitable event (£5,103 raised last year), however the suite of **Christmas events** (the Secret Room, Christmas Cards and Christmas Goods) also raised £3,023 collectively. 

- The **Summer Party, Bingo Night** and the **Summer Fair** were also important sources of income (Profit of £1,507, £1,302 & £1,099 respectively).   In the case of the Summer Party and Bingo Night, ticket sales covered the costs of providing the catering and facilities (with costs kept down by keeping catering in-house) and the profit was made from bar sales. 

##  Expenditure 

The costs of running FOLV are minimal (other than expenses related to events included in the profit above) and comprise bank fees and insurance **.** 

**93% of our net income** (£49,810) was given over to supporting the school or school activities. 



For the past few years, FOLV has been giving a grant of £30k to fund smaller items to support the running of the school.  This money is given in advance to be spent in the following school year.  The funds for 2023/2024 have been paid and are allocated as follows:

In addition, to the grant above, FOLV funded the following items and activities in the school year 2022/2023:
