## **TREASURER’S REPORT TO THE APGM YEAR TO 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

The Accounts show that we managed a small deficit of £1,073 in respect of the unrestricted (or the general) funds of the Church and excluding the unrealised loss in the year on the value of the investments.  We managed to pay the full sum of the Ministry Share during the year. The small loss was after writing off the full cost od repairs to the bell tower of £13,822. 

Turning to the Accounts and starting at page 17 which gives details of the items of income and expenditure: 

- a) The total money received under planned giving (that is the money paid by standing order or under the Parish Giving Scheme) has shown a slightl movement from the previous year of £71,528 to £71,605.  The move to use the Parish Giving Scheme helps to reduce the administration time dealing with the monthly receipts and to automatically recover the gift aid on a monthly basis without having to do the work ourselves. 

- b) The grants and donations in the main relate to monies received for specific purposes. c) We have also benefitted from the increase in bank interest rates on the funds we hold pending the anticipated building works 

Whilst the accounts appear to show a healthy position but they do not account for potential substantial quotations for works to the buildings to carry out basic repairs, particularly from the Quinquennial review and the PCC is prioritising the works with the funds available. 

If you have any questions on the accounts, please ask me or e-mail your question to Richard.hemmings211@btinternet.com
