Review of the charity’s Para 1.21 The pre-school is central to the village
financial position at the community and has a waiting list for
end of the period children wanting to attend. With
ongoing fundraising and an increase
in funding this year, the charity is in a
secure financial position.
Statement explaining Para 1.22 Over the last few years the financial
the policy for holding results of the pre-school have been
reserves stating why very challenging due to external
they are held factors such as government funding
and energy running costs. In
particular our revenue can vary
enormously. This is because numbers
of children vary due to demographic
reasons together with the admissions
policy of local schools.
The committee has agreed that the
pre-school should aim to hold
reserves covering 6 months of
expenditure. This level will give the
committee enough time to adjust
expenditure plans and seek
alternative sources of revenue if a
major problem should arise.
Amount of reserves held Para 1.22 £12,300
