Severnside Ramblers
Report from Treasurer
Our funding allocation for 2008/2009 was the same as last year, but is probably going down by 25% this coming year as the Ramblers have serious financial problems. I submitted a budget for the next year three months ago but have not yet heard how much our allocation will be.
We continue to have £200 a year income from the Ramblers Holidays advert in our programme. Bank interest has gone right down due no doubt to the credit crunch.
Social events this year: Christmas Lunch and a weekend rambling in Bideford – were self-financing. The quiz evening made a profit of about £100 which is going towards buying tools for path clearing.
Our new website set up by Ken Mill cost nearly £50 and will cost about the same to maintain each year. Other expenditure was the purchase of a laminator and related materials to promote walking, along with a training day for Jill Field the Publicity Officer.
The AGM has actually cost about the same as last year, it depends when our chosen venue requires a deposit. Costs incurred for pre-walking were reimbursed and a gift was given to the leader of the map reading course.
Our costs for printing and posting the quarterly programme have increased – we are trying to get as many members as possible to receive it by email.
