The gates would appear to date from this period: they were restored in 2019 and the sign ab)ve w45 made bj CB Arts of Ulverston and hung in 2022.

Expenditure amounted to £97.039,93. leaving a balance at the end of theyear of£48.977.72, an increase of£24.497.49. The account derives its income chiefly from the rent of the Chapel's commercial and residential properties bu( in response to our appeal for funds to restore the Schoolroom, substantial grants wetp received from the North and East Lancashlre Unilarian Mission (NELU￿ and the Garfield Weston Foundation and from several smaller organisations in Cumbria Many private individuals also donated money as did Unitarian Chapels throughout Great BritaiL As well as all this. the Chapel held numerous money-raislng events such as cake sales. an open day. and course& Full details of this will be shown on tables to be distributed at the AGM.

Expenditure from the Trust Account durlng 2025 was concerned prlmarily with the followlng Items.. regular salaries. the restoration of the Schoolroom. payments to HMRC and professional and lesal fees. Money was also transferred ro the Savings AccounL It should be noted that other running costs and fees due to our Managins Agents are dedurted before we receive payment of ren The Congregatlonal or Chapel Account IS Used for the day to day running of the Chapel. The balance of the account at the beglnnlng of 2025 was £12.877.65 and Income amounted to £21,307.16. Out8oings were £16,181.29 and the balance at the end of the year was £27.242.41, a rtse of £14,364.76. The main single source of income was the regular donatlons from members and friends of the Chapel. amounting to £11,311.41, plus other donations (including from NELUM) of £9,223.29. Rites of Passage brought in £4,650.00. GiftAid was claimed where approprtats and amountsd to £5,652.85. Thts Income helps to maintain the life of this anclent and much loved Chapel. whlch belongs to us all and plays such an important part not onty In the Ilves of those who attend servlces In person and on Zoom but also, In nornial clrcumstances. in the life of this town. In previous years we have benefired from hlrlng out the Schoolroom. That source of Income Ss temporarily unavailable to U5. But several small groups meet In the Vesty or the Meetin8 Room. Expendi￿re from the Chapel %count Included the various utilities (energy. tslephones. wasie colleLtlon etc), cleaning materials. window deanin& prlntlng of postsrs etc. and office supplles.

The account Is belng used to keep the money raised towards the Testoratlon of the Schoolroom and It must be statsd that some of it had been money transferred from the other accounts that had been given for that purpose. Update to spring 2026 We are fominate to have commercial properties In the town. Our shops are currenty leL apart from 26-28 Finlde StreeL but the propertles are all very old and there is 3 constant need for inspection and maintsnance. The fornier manse at 4 Nether Street is now in good condition and Is also let The annual rent from our commercial properties when fully let (but not Includlng Flnkle Street) amounts to £93,260.00, and from the fornier manse £11.2S6.00. These increasingly difficutt limes economically and financlally but currently our properties are In demand Our rents are reasonable, whilst a lot of rents in the town are very hlgh 2nd numerous shops have dosed. Furtherniore there is an increasing tendency for people to shop onlin& This reduces the general footfall In the town and we suffer from this. The New Shambles had become very shabby and in 2024 the dedsion was taken to repaint it in heritage colours. The tenants chose the colours, each unit beRn8 painted in a Ilghr and a dark shade and the ¢olours are repeated down the row. The effect was immediate and startling and it received much favourable attention from photographers, onllne, and from 'Cumbria Life. magazine. The New Shambles is now a vlbrdnt shopplng are4 wlth a variety of shops. The shop at 2&28 Finlde Street Is current]y run as The Space.. At the end of May the balan￿ on our bank accounts was as follows. There v￿S £30.019.39 in the trust account £24,068.36 in the consre8a¢ional account, and £54.184.91 In the savlngs accounL As well as the bank accounts, the Chapel has Investments, whlch are looked after by the Charities Aid Foundation and have a walue of £74,375.7& Flnally rhere Is the small B Thornpson Dr Holme and Ralph Ford Hall Trust wlth a value of £1.133.17. Incldentally the Dr Holme is he whose portrait hangs in the Vestry, whllst Ralph Ford (or Ralphford) Hall Is, as mentloned above. the origlnal name of the Masons, Arms and I have been unable to Identlfy B. Thompson.

It is obvious that the most serious issue facing the Chapel in krnis of finance Is the restoration of the Schoolroom. It is a Grade11 listed bulldlng and although we have received general consent to proceed we are subjert to condition5 at all times. In 2025 the gable wall was found to be leanlng outwards and a report declared it to be unsafe. The upper part has now been demolished and is currently (lune) being rebullL The next step wlll be to replace the roof In its entlrety as a prelude to removing and rebullding the ￿llIn& The total remaining cost of this work is currently estlmatsd to be £269.794.46. considerdbly less than originally estimatsd but thls does not indude the cost of solar panels etc. The Chapel Trust wlll bear 35 much of the cost as It can and we have raised or recelved a considerable sum from different sources, Includin8 two re￿llt Incredlbly generous personal donations of £6.000.00 and £IO.000.00, Recently we applied to the North and East Lancashlre Unltsrlan Mtssion (NELUM) for a loan of £IOO,000.00; this was approved unanlmousty by delegates at the Annual Genernl Meetlng on 30th May, subjert to cerraln condltlons. We shall contlnue to apply for grants from such bodles as the Nattonal Churches Trust We have a lot of moral support throughout the country and once the work is completsd, we shall have a much stron8er and safer bulldln& which will serve our communlty and the people of Kendal for many years to come.
