The Committee was advised that there was currently an underspend of £5985.00 in the Annual Grant Funding budget that was ring fenced for projects that arose later in the financial year.

The Spelthorne Museum was moving from its current location in the old Library to the new Library.  Listed building consent was needed to facilitate removal of the London Stone from one location to the other. This would be at a cost of £588.00 so approval had been sought from the Grant Panel for this amount to be awarded to the Spelthorne Museum. The Grants Panel had recommended that the Council approves the award in the sum of £588.00 from the underspend in the Annual Grant Funding 2025/26.

The Committee expressed their gratitude for the volunteers that currently worked in the Museum.
