Honorary Treasurer's Overview St. Colman's Church, Parish of Kilroot Year ended 31 December 2024 Trea5urerfs Report At the end of 2024 we had £38,414 in the banl which is £3.348 less than the previous year. Our Free WILL Offering income reduced by£500 from the prewous year. and when you consider that all our costs are increasin& then this becomes a problem. Month on month. we are not bringin8 in enough to meet our costs. whlch is why we are having to use yp our reserves, leading to the overall ba13nce in the bank decreasing. I would referyou to my letter in the November parish rnagazine giving more detaiLs on our financi81 position, and would again ask everyone to consider their 8pproech to givin& with a vlew to sustainingthe parish.
