As such, they represent a snap shot of the charity’s activity over a period of time because events do not all fit into the accounting period.

The charity maintains a minimum reserve of £2000 towards forward commitments and towards events costs incurred before the income from the event. The charity only makes grants once generated funds are in the account, so there is never a risk of not having enough money to meet commitments. ## **Structure, Governance and Management** The charity in an unincorporated association, governed by a Trust Deed.
