The Association's receipts and payments accounts are shown on page5 S and 6 and
have been fe-5tated to show separately, Donations & Grants received and expended.

£549.
The Associatlon's total revenue for the year was £93,762 versu5 £107,492 In the

£1,253 on the previous year. Rental income from the Social Club was £11,626 ver5US
£12,357 in the prevlous year. Café sales of £4,274 were £820 lower than in 2023.
Donations/Grants received were £14,044 versus £30,CXIO (grants towards roof
repalrs bein8 the lar8est item).
The Assoclatlon's total revenue expenditure in 2024 increased by £8,664 to £94,311
forthe year, mainly due to higher wage costs and a short-term loan of £4,000 to the
Social aub which has now been repaid. The overall net cash posltion for the year

Once a8a5n the centre ha5 had a really busy year with continued increase In hlrers of
all halls as reflected in the figures and the continuing Increase in users of the Centre
as we continue to support the local community in ever adaptin8 and Increasin8 Ways
and remaining at the heart of our community.
We have Introduced many new activitles as well as supportin8 our long-standing
groups.
The café continues to thrive as does the RVS lunch club.
The runnin8 and maintenance of an old building such as ours is not wlthout its
challenges and the management team and commtttee have worked incredibly hard
In securin8 grants to make Improvements in and around the Centre to ensure we
remaln a focal point within our community and we thank everyone who continue5 to
support us.
Res•Tves pollcv
It 15 the policy of the A550Clation that unrestricted fund5, which have not been
designated for a specific use or tied up in buildings and other tangible a5set5, Should
be maintained at a level equivalent to three months expenditure.
The trustees considerthat this policy reflects the wlsh to commit as much as
possible, within the bounds of safety, to providin8 Suitable facilrtles for the members
and the local community, while retainin8 financial stability and the potentlal to
respond to new opportunities.

At the end of 2024, the Association'5 cash reserves were £104,102, equivalent to 4.4
time5 the current ostimate for three months expenditure. Thi5 meansthat the
A550ciation's level of reserves is sufficient for the trustees tc continue to commit to
providing suitable facilities for member5 and the local community.
