Budget

‘Britain Yearly Meeting (BYM) shall once again set a deficit budget in 2025,’ Paul Whitehouse, Yearly Meeting (YM) treasurer, told Meeting for Sufferings (MfS) on 7 December, although it will be the last year they can afford to do so. ‘In 2026 we shall have to balance the budget, which will require reducing costs or increasing income.’
