Summary of the main activities in felatlon to these objects The orchestra performed 4 cOnrIS in Glasgow this season. This gave maximum practice for members and more members of the public were able lo attend live concerts.
APPENDIX I Summary of the maln achlevemenls of Our Oclober concefl was an unusual combination of a very known the charlty durlng the financial period symphony paired alongside a more modern symphony. Our conductor f this ccncarl was performing with us for the firsl tim8. In December we performed a concert foaturing Music from th8 Movies. This was an inlgraclive concert to engage 8 wider audience. The conductor spoke lo the audience between pieces and one piece encouraged thè audiern lo turn in lo performers by singing along. This was a sell out concert which is good for m8mbers and the Glasgow public. Our March concert fealured a young piano soloist from the Royal Conservalo¢re of Scotland, performing a popular concorto which was very popular wilh our audience and rnèmbèrs. Our summer term saw arK)Iher new conductorjoin us and w8 performgd a concert with a mix of unusual pioces by Brits'sh composers alongsid9 symphony by a popular composer, Borodin. Finah¢ial rov.ibw Bri8f statement of tho charlty's policy on res095 Our policy on reseTV8S Is lo rglain a balancè in thè aecounls equivalent lo 6 months of the spending necessary lo continu& with our obj9elivas, assumiw no income apart from an adjuslmenl for membership SLJbscriplions. This evenlualily is exlremely unlikely, bul this allows for unforeseen circumstances. This equates lo approximately £S,000. The Trusleos will review this amount and the policy every three years. Details of any deflcit There was a deficsl of £2195 in the workino account for this financial year, 2023-24, however due lo using a cash reporting system, signilic8nl funds relating lo this yoar were nol rgceived lo the bank before the fiiiancial year end. Gift Aid of approximately £2,600 and oulslanding lickel income of approximately £1400 are expected. This would have led lo a profit this year with concert 4 br6aking even. Donated faeilltles and servlces (if any) None, all facilities and services arg paid for.
