Financial Report 2023/2024
The TSF financial year runs parallel to the academic year and as such this report covers the period 1[st] September 2023 to 31[st] August 2024.
The year saw a change in chair and a continuation of a variety of events with the fantastic achievement of replacement of the school playground.
Total monies raised was £30,098 (up 33% on 2022/23).
Direct costs of £3,824, saw the net monies raised from fundraising activity of £26,274.
(Breakdown of events attached).
Included within the fundraising this year was a £10,000 grant awarded by the Trull Parish Council towards the new school playground.
Donations via monthly standing order payments continues and contributed £3,556 during the year. However, it should be noted that the volume and amount received has been reducing.
For example: September 2023 saw 17 receipts at £309. Whereas August 2024 saw 10 at £215.
As in previous years, it should be noted that whilst all contributions are voluntary, the reduction in the number of people contributing does bring into question how TSF ensure the remaining contributors are treated fairly.
Monies expended at £6,235 (excluding the exceptional £40,000 for the playground) was fairly in line with the prior year (£5,992). The largest expenditure being on coach hire at £3,550 for 9 trips.
The resultant position sat TSF general funds decrease by £19,961 to £15,334.
Restricted funds of £410 raised by Annie Williams in respect of Book Buddies has been fully utilised during the year with over £1,000 being spent on dictionaries and phonics books this year.
A Gift Aid claim will be processed for the qualifying standing order payments made during the year.
