Reserve$ poliey and going eoneern The level of the R¢scrves will be reviewed by the Board and that unless otherwise agreed, the organisation will strive. in line with good practic¢. to maintain a minimum reservc ¢quivalent to at least current three months running costs of the organisation. which are currently achieved, and ¢ndeavour to make good and maintain thc ¢quivalcDt of six months rumiing costs. The charitable company's suryival is largely depend¢nt on funding from local authorities, local health boards and government agencies. Althougb there was an ov¢rall small deficit in the year, wbi¢h was anticipated, there was a Slwplus in the unr¢strict¢d reserves which have improved these res¢rv¢s. Therefore the trnstees still consid¢r it appropriate to prepare the fmancial statem¢nts on a going concern basis as there are suffici¢nt reserves to carry forward. Page I
