Since our reopening on the Easter Weekend we succesfully made it through the season but there is still a lot of work to do as we continue to build on that initial success.
It costs us between £300 and £500 every month to keep KHC operational. Most of the costs are for essentials like heating and lighting, internet access and website and email hosting. Additionally there are costs involved to maintain the building not to mention costs associated with keeping the items in the collection safe and secure.
We had to spend slightly more money than we'd hoped last year and we now need to put our finances on a more stable footing. We were successful in a number of grant applications which have helped us to:
◦ finally rebuild the fire escape and open up the second floor
◦ acquire some new technology for some exciting new projects
◦ and we were accepted into two programmes to help bridge our skills gaps
Grants are great for project work but we need to raise funds ourselves to pay the bills. To that end we are embarking on a number of fundraising activities.
Thanks again to all of our visitors and supporters!
