12024 £6,329), partfy due to lower than anticipated salaries. with a full lime Children and
Youth worker role being reduced to part time role, and for only part of the year. The
surplus was also due to the continued generous level of both regular giving and donations
from the congregation despite the difficult economic situation Around 75 /D of regular
giving is through the Parish Giving Scheme. which continues to simplify our Gift Aid
arrangements. Overall income lo the general fund amounted to £200.06712024
