Alvescot Village Association AGM, 21 January 2025 Charity number 1177350
Treasurer’s Report for 2024
AVA had another successful year in 2024. It had organised one event, the summer fete which although impacted by wet weather maintained almost the same income as the previous year. It maintained the core of five trustees although there was a change in the village hall and independent trustees. Becky Tinson was replaced by Jaime Silvester as the nominated village hall trustee and Tom Bown was succeeded by Keziah Underhill . However AVA did not appoint any further independent trustees despite actively looking for replacements. Unfortunately the role of clerk still remained unfilled.
AVA continued to have an important presence within the village. Eight meetings in person enabled the smooth running of the charity. There was one village event, the fete. It was well attended and raised much needed funds. AVA is very grateful to all who have supported it in 2024.
AVA formed one subcommittee in 2024 to facilitate a dog show. The subcommittee was comprised of two trustees, former trustees and other villagers. The event was very popular and successful. The trustees would like to thank the subcommittee for its enthusiasm and commitment. The profit made increased the amount available for grants considerably.
The trustees continued to work hard and were greatly encouraged by the enthusiasm, support and community spirit and generosity of villagers. However the fete had to tailor the number of stalls to the amount of help available which was slightly less.
Income was £7452.98 ( 2023: £3723.93 ). Fundraising was £7452.98 ( 2023: £3579.95). Grants received were £0.00 ( 2023: £80.00 ) and donations were £0.00 (2023: £0.00).
Expenses were £7457.14 (2023: £4118.20) . Insurance was £399.69 (2023: £360.68) and equipment £14.98 (2023: £247.36) .
The trustees awarded grants of £5000 ( 2023: £2500 ).
The trustees agreed that the balance of £935.64 ( 2023: £939.80 ) in the bank account would be maintained for insurance, replacing equipment and fund raising expenses. AVA has an informal reserves policy allowing for flexibility within the terms of the CEO constitution.
