S.C.R.A. Finances
S.C.R.A. is a ‘Not for Profit’ Organisation. We are keen to evidence complete transparency regarding our finances.
As mentioned on our Membership page, we do not charge any annual fees to join, but we do appreciate all donations.
Notwithstanding the above, SCRA remains continually active, seeking funding through grants. Community activity support grants are available from time to time from the city council Mayoral fund, National Lottery Community grants, and local businesses such as ASDA.
We are non-political and are also helped by our local connection with Liverpool Hope University’s Community Engagement Team based on Taggart Avenue.
All funds are deposited in our Treasury Account held at Lloyds Bank in Woolton Village. Funds are vital to achieving our organisation’s aims and ambitions and are used exclusively for the benefit of our neighbourhood.
Our expenditures are as follows:-
The annual cost of Public Liability Insurance – covers both our volunteers and members should any accidents occur during our activities.
S.C.R.A. Website – registration, set up costs and maintenance.
Stationery costs – paper and ink costs for flyers and leaflet drops.
Rubbish Friends – supply of litter pickers and rings.
S.C.R.A. publicity – Cost of a S.C.R.A. banner for events
A financial report is presented each year at our Annual General Meeting, which all members are welcome to attend.
