What the accounts disclose
“We took in just shy of £600 Father’s day income was £550. Chinese New Year brought in over £530. We pulled in £1100 in external hires for the building.” — page 6
“We can’t raise the money we need for the roof. We want to reclad and insulate the walls too. The roof would be a dream for solar panels. We need to convert these pipe dreams into viable projects and raise money through grant applications to charitable trusts. This is an increasingly complex task.” — page 6
