In 2011, again there was little activity with the chapter’s finances, which are still healthy – income was £63.87 (£24.48 down on that for 2012). This is because we had no chapter donations, no membership subscriptions paid in (therefore none paid out); however, there was an increase in collections. Expenditure was £196.86 (£171.86 up on that for 2010). This was due principally to the Secretary’s expenses for both 2010 and 2011 coming out of the current account in 2011; there were also donations to the Candidates for Ordination Fund and to C Tilling to cover his travel expenses as our group counsellor. The deposit account remains untouched and is accumulating interest – the balance on it is currently £1,151.96. This leads to our total assets for the end of 2011 being £1,262.84.
I still enjoy being Chapter Treasurer and am willing to continue. Membership subscriptions and magazine subscriptions are, as usual, being collected centrally by direct debit and should preferably not be paid to me, though I can pass on payment from members who would rather not use direct debit. However, I would gratefully receive and chapter donations.
Finally, I would like to thank Bro. Ben Heffer for all his hard work as chapter secretary. I would also like to thank, in his absence, Mr Michael Ling for auditing the accounts for 2011, thereby checking that I am doing business correctly.
