Financial Review
Review of the charity's
financial position at the end
of the period
Para 1.21
Due to underfunding from Early Years and
increases in minimum wage hard decisions
had to be made regarding staff expenditure
to redu￿ it. Number of children on roll was
good but funding alone is never enough to
run the pre-school. Parent contributions and
fundraisin
are more im
rtant than ever.
We have not been able to maintain our cash
reserve of £40000. Required as collateral to
cover one te￿ of pre-school expenses
should we need to close for reasons beyond
our control.
