```

## **`Financial review`** 

## **`Financial position`** 

```
Netincomefortheyearshowedasurplusof£673(2023:£41,325).Thisrepresentedincomeof£246,284(2023:£226,668) and
expenditureof £245,611(2023:£185,343).Highercostsof gas and electricityas well as a return to being fully staffedall contributed to
the greater level of underlying expenses as did the trip to Japan.
```

```
At the end of the period the bursary accountcontained£127,980(2023: £135,180).This is a decreaseof just over £7,000over the year.
£35,200 was paid out in bursaries but this was largely offset by some very generous donations to the scheme.
