Treasurer’s Annual Report for 2021 AGM
This report covers the financial year from 1[st] January to 31[st] December 2020.
In round figures, the balance brought forward from 2019 was £10,422. Our total income from all sources this year was £1,813. This was around £3,352 lower than the previous year’s figure – largely as a result of Covid-19:
Direct subscriptions were down significantly at £169 due to the subscription freeze.
Direct donations of £120 and net income from PayPal of £459 were also down on the previous year. There were no cash collections or grants this year.
Due to Covid-19 restrictions on distributing Patient Magazines within the hospital site, print runs were reduced affecting revenue - dropping from £1,500 to £1,000.
Gift Aid claimed back from HMRC amounted to £65 for the year.
The total expenditure for 2020 was £4,608 which was just over £2,000 more than the previous year. This primarily represented one off upgrade costs for studio equipment/engineering.
As detailed in last year’s report, licensing was anticipated to drop this year and has – from £1,140 to £333. The IRN licence reduce from £295 to £139 as a result of us not broadcasting the news.
Direct web hosting and streaming fees for the year were £116.
The expenditure on broadband was the same as the previous year at just £50.
Again there was no expenditure on ISDN line rental for the football commentary, as Watford FC have paid this in advance for six years until October 30[th] 2023.
The Myriad subscription was also the same as the previous year at £187.
The Insurance premium for the year was higher than 2019 at £1,154 due to two annual premiums being paid within the financial year.
There was a deficit for the year of £2,795 resulting in a closing balance on 31[st] December 2020 of £7,627.09.
