What the accounts disclose
“As detailed in the independently examined 2024 accounts attached, the Association’s core income is generated from membership dues and proceeds from hosting dedicated events and the annual conference.” — page 12
“However, at this time, the Association has received most of the conference income and QMUL incurred most of the expense. This is to be reconciled early in 2025, but initial figures indicate that there is an overall conference profit of around £47,289.17 and QMUL will generously donate 75% of this to the Association.”
