Accounts for the year ending December 2023 showed
Income £28,766.27 Expenditure was £27,234.13
Profit therefore was only £1,532.14 compared to £8,656.83. in 2022.
This was partly due to the fact that 2022 had roughly £2,280 more in income due to a lot of bookings post covid and partly due to extra spending on building maintenance and gardening in 2023.
Money in the bank at the end of the financial year was a healthy £90,050.08.
Nielsens accountants reported all accounts to be in order.
