Dear Sir,
Honest John’s Aycliffe Community Kitty has got off to a great start in it’s new premises with customers and donations pouring in from day one.
With expenses for relocation amounting to approximately £1500 including deposit for the unit at £1125 (which is reimbursed on leaving).
Donations have still been made to:
Zanshin-Kai Karate – £500
Newton Aycliffe WI – £500
Baby Basics – £300
Pop In Social – £300
I am sorry for your initial confusion in finding the new premises, which in the beginning was not so straight forward, but I am pleased you did.
For those who haven’t yet made it, take the first left on Durham Way South, then the final left, then right to unit 29. I look forward to seeing you, open Monday to Saturday 10am to 4pm.
John
PS: Overheads for the charity are priced at £540 per month + electric; public liability insurance is £160 per year.
I pay for transport to and from out of my own pocket, which I think is how it should be, I like to keep expenses to a minimum – it’s a pity national charities can not do the same!
