2010 Annual Dinner produced a cash deficit of £1262. Most Teesside Members Group and ECP meeting events were financially

supported. Branch venue costs were less than budgeted due to relocation to

Teesside University. 2010 deficit to reserves was (£2,448), better than the budget figure. 2011 annual budget was set to produce a deficit to reserves of (£3,460). All income and expenditure is now categorised by Essential, Core and

Supplementary activities.
