Of course, as usual, this is a brief overview but it does show that outgoings continue to outweigh income and this being a constant trend does seem a little worrying.
Wednesday Coffee Mornings have raised a further £154 and donated £50 each to MU/AFIA and RUKBA. Our Retiring Collections in aid of Breast Cancer Care raised £270.16 and The Rowans Hospice £140.92.
If any more information is required, please feel free to ask and I will endeavour to help. Alternatively, an Income & Expenditure breakdown is posted on the Notice Board prior to PCC Meetings, where more information can be found.
