CUH&H Annual General Meeting 17[th] March 2025, 7pm GMT

Agenda

1. Apologies for Absence

2. Financial Statement – N Mathur

Boundary Run

Earlier today, Maxime sent me accounts showing a record profit of 18.4k. Let us compare with previous highs.

Pre-pandemic we hit a profit of 14.0k in 2019. Post-pandemic we hit a profit of 13.0k last year in 2024. In order to consider entries, let us compare income instead of profit:

17.5k in 2019, 18.7k last year in 2024, and now 24.9k. In summary, crudely comparing with those pre- and post-pandemic highs, income is up by 6k, profit is up by 4-5k.

A big well done to Maxime and everyone else!

Administrative matters

I believe that advance payments are now collected to book items of known value (dinners and stash); and that deposits are taken to book items of uncertain value (BUCS and training camps). We should please ensure that any sign-ups are only valid if accompanied by the corresponding payments.

The accounts for the last financial year 2023-24 passed audit, year end is 30 June.

I made annual declaration to the Charity Commission for 2024 in respect of our status as a registered charity.

Like last year, Cillian has done a fantastic job as Junior Treasurer and I am delighted that he is standing for a third time. If re-elected, this should be a record stint for a Junior Treasurer, at least.

Overall position

The extra Boundary Run profit is really very welcome indeed given increasing costs that include expenses payments to John Eves as well as Phil O’Dell. These expenses for the four ‘terms’ come to over 4k.

Other major expenses are quite a few k on transport to races, a few k on subsidising BUCS, and a few k on Training Camp subsidies.

Our major sources of general income are membership fees (4.4k) and donations (1.4k).

I anticipate that the extra Boundary Run income implies that there will be no need to increase membership fees or Boundary Run entry fees.

However, costs are always going up, and future Boundary Run income is not certain, so if everyone who leaves can please send £10/year via the portal then that would be nice – Gift Aid will be added for UK taxpayers.

Dear Neil,

I am a�aching the signed and dated accounts. Fabulous return on the boundary run, and it is great to see the income and expenditure on stash in such good order! I was wondering whether the coaches might be paid a bit more (we have just raised rates modestly for the Instrumental Award Scheme), but that's not really anything to do with the accuracy of the accounts Congratula�ons on what looks on paper to have been a great year. I have my fingers crossed for some talented Fresher runners and for December.

All the best,

Paul
