subject to change as a result of that review.

make copies of the accounting records for the financial year to which the audit
relates and all books, deeds, contracts, bills, vouchers, receipts and other
documents relating to those records must be made available for inspection by
any person interested. For the year ended 31 March 2019, these documents will
be available on reasonable notice by application to:

This consultation forms part of our application to ENC for the Communities Facilities Fund and without a good response our application will fail.
There is a 25% match funding for this award so watch out for fundraisers to raise this money which will need your support. A quiz night is planned in September and if you have any ideas that will help the Council raise the 25% required, please let me know.
