Getting on top of our Accounts
Here's the place to find all of the details you need to make sure that your subscriptions are fully up-to-date by the end of the year.
Each hut owner should ensure that they've paid their £20 per month into the Common Good Fund. Either, since it started back in 01/08/02 (if you've had your hut that long), or, since the date that you either bought a hut, or were allocated a plot to build on.
If you've had you hut since the Common Good Fund began, then you're required contribution by the end of this year (31/12/09), is just £1,760. Otherwise, you should ensure that you've paid all your payments due since you took over the hut.
This money is extremely important to the community if we are to have any chance of maintaining sufficient funds for the challenges ahead. Below, you'll find all of the Bank details that you'll need to settle your Common Good Fund contributions, and, while you're sorting that out, we've provided the Bank Account details that you'll need to set up your monthly Standing Order of £84 from 01/01/10 to the new BUY OUT SUBSCRIPTION ACCOUNT.
