Treasurer’s Report

Period 01/04/2024 to 31/03/2025

For those new members amongst you, we have three bank accounts, the MAIN account the SOCIAL account and an easy access Savings account.

Summaries of these accounts accompany this report.

The main account is funded by your subscriptions and Gift Aid, and pays for hall hire, speakers’ fees, refreshments, Committee expenses, etc.

The social account is used by individual groups to fund their day-to-day running (hall hire, speakers, trips, etc).

The Savings accounts is used to transfer any funds to receive interest.

As a registered charity we should not make a profit. As we continue to collect membership fees earlier our adjusted figure for the year is a defict of £1,460.27. This is taking account of the b/f of £5,108.66 collected in 23/24 for 24/25 membership fees and the carry forward of £6,685.62 for 25/26.

We last year increased our membership fee to £10.00 which I think you will all agree is very good value and is the lowest u3a fee in the area.

I would like to thank all group coordinators/treasurers for forwarding their accounts where necessary.

Denise Crichton
