Treasurers Report for 2022/2023

At last a covid free year and things started to get back to normal as can be seen from our income of £39824 compared to last year of £20493 and the year before of £1644.

We did receive 2 grants from Telford and Wrekin which were put towards our new patio and furniture.

Income from regular hirers was £16367 and from parties, weddings christening etc we raised £8717. Events ( Xmas fayre, Summer fete, afternoon teas and quiz nights etc brought in another £14714.32 ( this included takings from bar at Other Hires)

Expenditure for the year at £41334 was made up of the regular items such as wages, insurances, bar purchases, wi-fi and cleaning materials. Our big items of expenditure on equipment were replacing all our chairs £5300, a new bar fridge £683 and a small fridge freezer for the old kitchen £227. We also had some extensive repair and maintenance which needed to be carried out including an upgrade to our lighting/ emergency lighting systems , new stage lighting and some work on the cladding outside although a lot more has been done in this financial year.

The overall result for the year was an operating loss of £1509 but after the grants from T&W this turned into a small gain of £490.

At 31[st] March 2023 the hall was still in a comfortable position financially with £23427 in the current account with Lloyds and £38296 invested with the Charities Investment Funds.

The charities funds did see a dip during the year when the stock market dipped but has recovered to a small increase over the year of £93

All in all a satisfactory year and everything is looking very positive going forward.
