## **ANNUAL REPORT TO SUPPORT THE INCOME AND EXPENDITURE ACCOUNT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2021:**
Total Income declined by just over 40% over the year, unsurprising in that the ability of the Group to go out and earn more income such as through sponsored walks and exhibitions was restricted by the Lockdowns introduced to try and stop the spread of Covid19.
Book sales decreased by just over 3 / 5 to £543.25 and were overtaken by grants received from local Councils to sponsor the publication of leaflets to promote Walks as the Group’s major earner of income at £950 or nearly 57% of annual income.
Book sales were at just under 1 / 3 of annual income. Postage and packing charges on those book sales were at just under 5% of annual income.
However, the total costs of posting and packaging books also declined by just under 80% to £88.70, in line with reduced book sales.
Donations from private individuals and organisations fell by 69% to £45, again reflecting the limitations of Coronavirus lockdowns. However, donations related to Amazon increased from £3 last year to £30.54 this year.
Nevertheless, as the Group was carrying out fewer activities overall expenses also reduced by 41% to £1174.53 where 53% of our expenditure related to publishing books and leaflets to promote Revolution - related walks. £628 was spent on publishing in total of which £300 was on books and £328 on publishing leaflets to promote walks.
However, although Covid19 restrictions of safety and necessity meant the Group could not meet in person, the work of the Group could continue electronically and a Zoom registration overhead of £143.88 was incurred for the first time.
The essential cost of maintaining a web site to remind the world of the 1817 Pentrich Revolution and of the Group’s main purpose of commemorating it remained fixed at £271.
All these transactions meant that the Group achieved a total surplus of £506.26, a fall of 39% from last year.
