The value of th&se pieces i.s in large part derived from their close a.550ciation with Regimental history which precludes the use of conventional valuation technique8 being applied. Whilst the objects of the charity do not specifically include preservation and con.%ervation. the pieces repre*nt an essenlial element of celebrating the unil's history and foster esprit-de-corp8.

The Mess has held a Summer and Winter Ball thi5 year as well as some smaller annual functions such as Oktoberfest, various branch dinner nights and dine outs. The Mess has also supported the livers in by organising quiz and event evenings. These events and functions have contributed to the higher level of expenditure. Ag¢d debtors have increased considerably this period and work is under way to reduce these. Military and Civilian Subs: £79,462.87. received for 22123 peri￿. This is an increase of £19.235.34 from the previous year. This is due to an Incre￿ in the daily subscription charge. p￿-cOV1d rates were reintroduced in the latter part of the lasi FIY making the 22123 period the firsi full year where an increased subscription charge was collected. Restrlcted Funds: The Directorate Function% Fund had a balance of £3966.50.

Additional comments - include any declarations whith were not correct at pages 7 & 8: The Mess has provid￿ a variety of functions this year which have benefited Mess members. The annual Summer and Winter Ball have taken place and smaller functions such as branch ditwer nights, dine outs and themed event evenings. Mess incom¢ h&s been obtained through monthly subscriplion5. The annual income from subscription clwges has increased due to the rein.%talement of the pre-covid rate. Entertainment Subscriptions are still S￿Spended and this will be reviewed in the next F/Y in line with the forecasted number of fijnctions the Mess will provide. Expenditure has increased from the previou5 period and this has been due lo the reintroduction of the functions. Internal transfers - voted ai General Mcss Meetings: An internal transfer was voied across at the AGM in March 22 to move the Directorate Dinner Night baL2nce back into GPF. This was due to the fund bell￿ dormant for scvcral years. The balance was voted from GPF in 2016. The aged Mess debi,5 are currently £6,682.35. This number is extremely high. Attempis are being made to reduce the debt and consolidate a procels. with the contractor, to recover debt bcfore the three-month stage. Mess members who exceed 3 months of aged debi are reminded of their debt by the Treasurer requcsling the aPPTopriaie debi be settled.
