The annual deficit of £36.(MX) in 2024 compares with the surplus of £22,(KMI in 2023 and reflects the challenqes and significant cost pressures being faced going forwards. Rlsk M•n•8ement The Trustees, strategies are largely based on the expansion of youth, family. and community activitie$ and to make most effective use of both the Sanrtuary and Klrk Centre sltes wtth weight bein8 given to outreach and financial considerations. Outreach to the younger elernents of our parish is considered crucial to the medium and long term welfare of our Chur¢h life. the Trustees being particularly conKious of the progressive ageinq of our conqrqation. The Cults Kirk Centre is eleven years old but rernains in excellent condition and the buildings at our Sanrtuary site and at the Manse are also in sound condition. Both of the former sites are extrernelv important to the on8oin8 church and cornmunity activities and are subjert to a condition based rolling programrne of maintenance and repair. All of our buildings will require a continuous commitment and 24active property mana8ement In ordef to maintain and improve the overall facilities to offer expansion of new opportunities for all ages. The financing of fabric repairs and rnaintenance costs continue5 to be challenging and there is the need to consider potentially significant annual increase5 over the next few years in the maintenance of the properties at all our sites and in particular the Kirk Centre as it ages. We are also conscious of the necessity to f+nance upqrade pro8rarnrnes in the new to medium term for our older ￿M$ •t the Sanctuary site in order to maintsin them in such a condition as to continue to attract community and ¢hur¢h 8roups. The church rernain5 in • 50und financial poSit￿n and is able to meet all its immedlate and medlum term commitments. The Trustees are aware that from late 2023. limitations on the extent to which the Kirk Centre is able to operate on a more cornmercial basis resulting frorn tax considerations, have timed out leading to potential opportunities for improving our financial model. Durin8 the year we have continued to operate our buildings and activities on risk assessed bases, carrying out and updating Risk Management assessments in relation to fife risks. and individual activities by church and community groups using our premises.

Resem5 Pollcy At 31 December 2024 £387,917 wds held in unrestricted funds. of which £47.963 belonged to Church or8anisations. Of the £339,954 remainin& £I(m).(￿ is designated for Fabrbc purposes and the balance of £239,954. represents over nine months of the Church's 2024 expenditures. However, in future years normal expenditure is expected to be maintained at a high level with the addition of extraordinary fabric repairs and maintenance expenditure of over £20.CW in 2025. As a result of extraordinary fabric repairs and rnaintenance and higher energy costs there will be a significant reduction in the level of both the fabric ftsnd and the general re*r¥es. In addition, £1,601 was held in endowment fund5 and £3.318 Is held In restrirted funds for the purposes of theGrant Family Fund.
