Treasurer’s Report:
Ann has been to Virgin Money and a Term Deposit is available at 4% online. However the process is not straightforward and it would require the signatories, Valerie, Ann and Catherine to all be present on a phone call to apply. Ann is going to check with Yorkshire if any similar accounts are available to the Windfarm and what would be required.
Ann confirmed that all of the awards have been made as agreed at the meeting of 4th June.
A refund of £1,142.10 has been received from Scottish Womens Institute in respect of the award made to them in November 2022 for the Biennial Show held in Campbeltown earlier this year. Their costs were less than estimated and other funding was received.
Ann confirmed that the Grant has been received from SSE, £3,155.00. The account balance is £106,064.27 and the next funding will be received next April/May.
Distribution of funds
More information was requested from Machrihanish Seabird & Wildlife Observatory and Campbeltown Rugby Club. After discussion, it was agreed that both applications should be fully supported – MSBO £5,000 and Rugby Club £3,000.
Previous Awards update
Anne will send reminders to the outstanding groups regarding the non receipt of the End of Project forms for the awards made in June 2023.
