## Other optional information 

. 

As well as the main operating account, GOS had an “Additional Activities” current account. This account will be used for extra events in future and currently holds a small float to keep it open. 

GOS also has a Savings Account which currently holds significant funds, primarily due to a generous donation from a large company. These funds will be used for future activities as determined by the orchestra. We explored the idea of organising a tour to Spain, but after receiving details and costs from the organising company, it was decided by a majority of the orchestra not to proceed. Money was moved from the savings account to the main account in order to purchase new percussion, to pay a soloist and conductor, all at the decision of the committee, 

The Statement of Balances page now shows all funds belonging to the orchestra and our surplus is healthy. Future discussion will take place to decide on how this money will be used to further the objectives of the group.
