Treasurer's Report for 2021/22
Accounts run from 1[st] December 2021 to end September 2022 but include admin costs from 1 October 2021. This timeline aligns with the notification by the Cooperative bank that the new account was active and officers were able to gain access. Money was transferred from the old UALL bank account to the new UALL (CIO) account on 14[th] March 2022 (£44,747.96) although some membership payments continued to be deposited to the old account after that date. As a consequence, the old account has remained open and funds transfers enacted. Institutions continue to be notified of the bank account changes. The old account will be closed as soon as possible. The CC has been advised of this arrangement.
Membership and subscriptions
Income from membership subscriptions in 21/22 remained steady at £11,850 (20/21 = £12,000). Membership rates have remained at £500 p.a.
