basis with all member|| |||||||||||subscriptions
and other funds raised used to cover|| |||||||||||Group running
costs and activities.
The Group's
policy|| |||||||||||on reserves
is to hold sufficient resources to continue|| |||||||||||the charitable
activities ofthe Group.|| |||||||||||The Group held reserves
of approximately
F39,000|| |||||||||||against
this at year end which whilst
high compared|to| |||||||||||experidlture
in the year,
it should be noted that actwities|| |||||||||||and consequently
expenditure
continued
to be reduced|| |||||||||||by the Coronavirus
pandemic.
In the context of the|| |||||||||||previous
year, the reserves are in Ime with past years|| |||||||||||and are considered
reasonable.
Historically
some|| |||||||||||money was earmarked
for new premises
prior to moving|| |||||||||||lo the current Distnct Scout HQ. Given the uncertainty|| |||||||||||surrounding
the secunty of tenure of our current|| |||||||||||meeting
place, these reserves
may be required
in the|| |||||||||||future.|| |Quantify|and|explain any designations|||||||||| |Details of any|||funds
