I can confirm that the annual income for Calendar year 2020, for the battle of Worcester Society was £2,104.80.
The income was £3,057.67 and the expenses were £952.87.
The income from subscriptions and lottery grants continued at near normal levels during 2020, but events and activities were very limited due to COVID restrictions, hence the unusual increase in Society funds during this period.
Further details of the transactions that resulted in these figures are in the annual Treasurers report which is attached.
