Actvites and Achievements
The Vineyard PTA became a registered charity on the 8[th] of February 2013. This is our 12[th] annual report made to the Charities Commission covering our fiscal year 2023-2024.
During the period under review, the PTA raised funds totalling approximately £36k (net of expenses) from events and sales activities, a fantastic result. The top income earning events were the summer fair and Christmas market. The uniform shop was a great success, with sales of over £6k.
This allowed £23kk to be allocated towards the field Fund, a major and long term project, in order to rectify the drainage issues in the sports fields.
