ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The Hei'itage and Inforniation Ccntrc 15 bascd ai St Jamcs Chiirch, Albion Street, New Brighton, whei'e a
dedicaled space has kindly been allocated to U5 for a Hislory and Heritag¢ Display. This is open to Ilie piiblic
on Wednesdays and Fridays I lain-lpm, and enables us to engage with both visitor5 and lo￿115 on any r¢lal¢d
qII¢II¢S 01 iS5LL¢S th¢y may bring. We also iise the space to hold meetings with our own Voluntee￿ every second
Thu13day in each monih. Each meeting is docliinenled with an agenda and tninul¢s. With the help of our
volunlcers w¢ have been able to offer Heritage Walks aroiind iNew Brigliton, which have been well supported.
As last y¢ar, we took the opwrtunity to reach oul to a wider public at the Wirral History and H¢ritag¢ Fair
which 15 hcld al Hultn¢ Hall in Port SLinlight, and Ive have also continued to work in conjunctioi) with Church
representatives in holding exhibitions of lo¢al int¢r¢si.
FINANCIAL REVJEW
Our spendiiig for thc ycar cxcccded our inconK by £1,002. This was 12rgely on aecoiint of our purchase of an
up.to-date laptop coniputer at a cost of £510 for the purpose of administraliic and promotional work. As Stated
in the Notes lo the Accounts, Ive do not capilalize any such items c05ting less than £ 1,000, so tlie fvll amoiint
was ¢harg¢d io this year's accoiints. We are satisfied ihat our 5pcnding has LKcn used ¢ffe¢tiiiely to promote tlie
ain)s of the Charity during the course of the year. and the deficit does not give us undue cau5c for wnG¢rn giv¢n
th¢ Funds w¢ hav¢ built up froni pr¢vious years.
