Minutes:

In response to a question from a Member regarding the price increase by Fusion, Officers said that the Young at Heart service has always been a subsidised service. The level of subsidy depends on the amount of external funding that can be raised to support the programme. However, in order to ensure that prices would never increase to Fusion standard rates the original annual service plan set out agreed maximum annual prices.

 

In 2012 Fusion was able to secure sufficient additional external funding to hold Young at Heart prices at previous levels. However for 2013 membership levels increased and external funding decreased making it regrettable but inevitable that registration prices had to increase. Members were informed that the Young at Heart programme offered over 20 hours a week of activity which were free but if participants wanted to come at any other off peak time then Fusion make a maximum charge of £1.50 per session.
