## **GLOUCESTERSHIRE COUNTY PROFICIENCY TESTS COMMITTEE** 

For Agriculture, Horticulture and Related Industries 

Reg. Charity No. 271607 

Secretary: Keeley Newman-Goodall 

## **Secretary’s Report for Year Ending 31[st] July 2024** 

## Overview 

The number of assessments continue to increase slightly and there have been enquiries from new training centres seeking support from GCPTC to register assessments. The total number of assessments complete in the year ending 31st July 2024 were 558. The total income received was £51.052.73 with cost of sales at £44,900.72. Administrative expenses were £11,782.28 

## Finance 

This year the accounts show a loss of £5.630.27. The main reason for the loss being the appointment of a new secretary and the need for dual working for a month, along with the loss of some business from a previous training provider. 

Cash flow has been good with regular communication and good working relationships being maintained with the training provider finance teams. 

The committee’s accounts continue to be maintained under one roof at the Santander bank. Xero accounting software has been set up and used in order to help with better invoice management and timely production of reports and accounts.  The Treasurer Account provides a current account and the 30-notice account (now called a Treasurer Account).  The Chairman, Secretary and Mr. A. East are joint signatories. 

## Reserves Policy 

The Committee now has £26,908 in reserve which is slightly above the target of £25,000. This provides cover for bad debt (around £15,000 is owed by Debtors at any one time).  It had previously been agreed by the trustees that following a risk assessment, Trustee Liability insurance was not required, however, it was decided to keep some money in reserve should professional advice be required. 

## Assessors 

All Assessors continue to work well with the GCPTC, responding flexibly to the demands made.  Paperwork continues to be completed well and returned in time. 

## Development 

City and Guilds continues to expand their range of qualifications open to candidates as highlighted on their website. 

## Thanks 

I would like to thank all those on the committee for their continued help and support. 

Keeley Newman-Goodall – October 2024
