First Wilton scout group AGM report
A good set of accounts this year as things have definitely returned to normal. We have had another grant of £2667 from Wiltshire council to cover any losses from the pandemic which has of course been very useful. The scout Christmas post went ahead again this year and although slightly down on income still managed to bring in around £1600. We were also able to get some money from the coop as their nominated charity of £1300 and a significant amount from group scouts of over £3300 from the ongoing book collections. Hall hire has picked up significantly again and we have a number of regular hirees and also are regularly used as a one off which is excellent leading to an income of over 18000. Finally, the rag collection continues to bring in a steady income stream of around £400 which for very little effort is very much appreciated
Our main expenses continue to be the insurance policies for the buildings and contents and the minibus and the capitation owed to group. We also continue to pay for a cleaners and maintenance of the hall, whereby we try to paint and ensure general upkeep so it is in good condition for hirers. The general increase in costs is reflected in the bigger expense for both the electricity and the oil for heating but hopefully these will be lower in the coming year
All in all a very good year. Hall hire is buoyant and enables subs to be kept low as it covers the ongoing costs of running the building. The Christmas post went ahead which ensured some fundraising. The bank account remains buoyant and hopefully will enable some major projects to be carried out in the near future.
