Treasurer’s Report – October 2024
Grants: The Small Grant expenditure includes the deposit for the courtyard works of £4415. The remaining balance is in the accounts as the works will be completed in the following financial year. This is reflected in the bottom of the accounts by deducting the remaining balance of the small grants income from the surplus income figure. This is why we have traded at a loss this year.
Fees & Wages : We have increased our fees income by 52.3%, but the monies from grants and governing bodies is down by 17.5% making our total income rise by only 9.5%. Wages increased by 16.7% in line with rises in minimum wages and increasing staff hours.
R&R: We put £392.35 extra towards the flooring and this is reflected in the repairs & renewals column.
Bank interest: This is earned on the deposit account is almost double what it was last year which is useful.
Fundraising income remains the same
Capital costs + Rent : Capital equipment purchases, arts & craft and rent have almost doubled this year. As well as rent having gone up there is now an additional cost of repairing/maintaining the premises which again will have an impact on the surplus income.
Miscellaneous category, which is mainly mobile costs, job adverts, pet costs, have remained the same.
Food costs has increased by 25.6% as would be expected with an increase in children intake and higher food costs.
Overall expenditure costs have risen by 16.5% in comparison to income increase. This would explain why we only had a small surplus income over expenditure.
