TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st DECEMBER 2020
The Trust's work in support of the school
The trust continued to be active in a number of areas where support was particularly requested by the school:
1 Bursary Fund:
This fund exists to support children whose family circumstances do not permit the payment of the full fees for their education. This fund was originally set up with the intention that the income from the fund would provide the financial resources required. In the light of current interest rates this is not possible. Nevertheless the trust has sent £7,500 this year towards this need. As at 31st December 2020 the Trust had £48974 (2019 £55,814) to support this objective.
2 Staff Support Fund
This fund is to provide financial asistance to staff. During the Year the trust sent £12,761 to the school for this purpose . At 31st December 2020 the balance of this fund was £55629 (2019 £66,748).
4 General Fund
The majority of this fund is derived from donations from individuals, groups and organisations who wish to support the work of the Trust, and the Trustees are very grateful to them. The General Fund enables the Trustees to support specific needs which arise at the school from time to time. During the year the Trust sent £20,252 (2019 £24,371) to the school from this fund. At 31st December 2020 the General Fund had a balance of £89987 (2019 £63571).
5 Newsletters
During the year two newsletters, under the title 'Imbila', were produced by the Trust during the year by Mr Stephen Baker. These provide an update to Trust supporters on the work of the Trust
6 Covid-19
The trustees have carefully reviewed the potential implications for the charity of potential obligations related to the Covid-19 crisis and consider that no further disclosures or amendments to the accounts are necessary and that it remains appropriate to prepare the accounts on a Going Concern basis
7 Reserves
Restricted Reserves are those donated for specific purposes. The charity is obliged to distribute those Reserves for the purposes for which they were donated. General Reserves are held to pay for the costs of running the Charity, and held so that the charity can respond to requests for financial assistance as, and when, they arise. At the Year end Restricted Reserves amounted to £106728 (2019 £125,173) and the General Reserves £89987 (2019 £63,571). The Trustees consider that the level of General Reserves is sufficient for known and anticipated requirements.
