The General Fund budget is reported on at each Annual Meeting. The previous year’s budget is compared with the actual income and expenditure and the following year’s budget is considered. Historically, the Council’s income from Affiliation Fees funds the cost of the Annual Meeting itself and should fund the cost of ‘keeping the lights on’. This has been supplemented in previous years by interest income from cash reserves.
The budgeted Workgroup expenditure, including Ringing 2030 expenditure, comes from existing cash reserves. For the 2024 Budget, we include the forecast expenditure for Ringing 2030 for the next seven years.
