Good evening, I would like to introduce the draft accounts, a copy of which is up on the screen now
This includes comparisons to last year’s accounts, and shortly I will provide a quick commentary on some of the main differences to last year’s accounts.
These draft accounts will be delivered to the auditor in due course and once fully audited, will be available on the charity commission website.
The accounts show an total income across the group of £51,000, up from £45,500 in 2020/21. However this years income does not include the Membership subscriptions that are paid on to Aylesbury Vale District Scouts. A charge of £9,000 for 2021-22 was paid after the accounts the year were closed. This charge will therefore appear on this year’s accounts.
As COVID restrictions eased during 2021/22, the executive took the decision to return memberships subscriptions back to their pre-COVID levels. Our membership income therefore increased to £24,000 during 2021/22.
We continued to see some COVID grants come through in 2021/22, just over £13,000, but this was down from 2020/21 when we benefitted greatly from the various COVID schemes
Our rental income has increased following the decision charge the playgroup on an annual basis. This annual rental income now comes in September and the increase is now reflective of that change.
Additional cleaning and new kitchen equipment have resulted in Hut running costs increasing to £10,000.
Overall, our cash position in 2021-22 increased to an adjusted figure of £81,000 compared to £50,000 in 2020-21.
We have maintained our reserves of £15,775 have not been touched during 2020/21, and are more than sufficient to cover 6 months’ worth of outgoings, as required by the Charity commission.
We have not had to draw upon these reserves to fund the continued refurbishment of the Scout Hut and I would expect this level of reserves to be available for the duration of 2020/21.
