We were able to have a small number of bars resulting in a modest level of net income for the **Bar** of £2,861 Again, **Events** were limited with only the Downhill Run and two separate quiz able to be staged. Our thanks to Rotary for their sponsorship of the Downhill Run and our volunteers who have had to operate in difficult conditions. The total raised was £1,198 **Grants and Donations-** We received a Covid Restart Grant of £12,000 and continued, in the early months, to receive support from the Job Retention Scheme receiving a total of £5,332. The 200 Club again made a donation of £4,000. The actual **Lettings** for the year totalled £ **61,426** . The first four months of the year were similar to 20/21 where we were limited to the activities permitted under the varying Covid rules. 80% of our lettings were earned between September and April. 3 ## **Expenditure** ## Expenditure 2021-22 **----- Start of picture text -----**

Staff Costs
**----- End of picture text -----**
**Staff Costs** , wages and National Insurance contributions remains our largest area of expenditure. The total cost was £34,662. There were no significant **Admin** costs . The majority of the **Buildings** repairs and renewals costs was as a result of the roof repairs. We have not yet had an opportunity to carry out the refurbishment of the office. Other than wages the **House** costs were minimal. The **Services** costs were above last year reflecting the higher level of occupancy of the building. ## **Balance Sheet** The increase in Net Current Assets reflects the excess income over expenditure. 4 ## **Budget for the Year 2022/23** In setting the budget I have made the following assumptions: - All of our expenditure and costs will reflect a full year - Wages/NI costs will increase in line with the National Living Wage - The planned programme of building maintenance will continue. The windows in the Main Hall are due to be replaced. A new fire door from the chair store will be installed and remedial work undertaken on the windows and doors to the side of the building. The lintel which runs the length of the Main Hall also requires remedial work. The upgrade to the office is planned and we plan to resolve the issue with potholes in the car park. - The level of the cost of services will increase by approximately 10% - PRS joint licence will reflect our rental income for 2021/22 |**Expenditure Category**|**Actual 2021/22**|**Budget 2022/23**| |---|---|---| |Wages|£34662|£47,000| |Admin|£973|£2,500| |Buildings|£8,923|£22,000| |House|£1,780|£3,500| |Services|£20,514|£25,000| |Total|£66,852|£100,000| ## **Income Assumptions** - Our Lettings and Subscriptions will reflect a full year - The contribution from the Bar and Events will be similar to historic levels - The 200 Club will continue to make a contribution to the Centre's income. |**Income Category**|**Actual 2021/22**|**Budget 2022/23**| |---|---|---| |Lettings & Subscriptions|£63,612|£80,000| |Bar|£2,861|£8,000| |Events (incl. sponsorship)|£1,447|£5,500| |Donations (excl WW)|£5,297|£5,200| |Grants (excl WW)|£17,332|£0| |Totals|£90,549|£98,700| This budget is based on there being no change in current letting and affiliation rates. 5 ## **Thanks** May I finish by thanking- - Sarah Coleman our new Bookings Manager - Greg Jones, Brian Schofield, Will Thornton, Jackie Hearn and, prior to their retirement, Dave Smith and Bob Charlick for their hard work supporting the users of the Centre. - Our volunteers, in particular the Centretainments committee and our bar volunteers - Jenny Woodward for the 200 Club - Tony Fernandez for his help with the reconciliation and banking of our letting income - Our Independent Examiner of Accounts, Keith Helsby - All of the Groups and individuals who continue to support the Centre in so many ways ## **Christine Reeves** Hon Treasurer 6 |**Income**|**Income Statement**
