The reserves that we have set aside provide financial stability and the means for the development of our principle activities. We intend to maintain our reserves at a level which is at least equivalent to £50,861 that we believe will be enough to cater for our needs in the next financial year. This is given our need to have enough Cash Flow and the prospect of other eventualities, such as the closure of the playgroup and the need to pay for Redundancy to all the staff. We intent to use the reserves in the following manner in the financial year 2021-2022.
-
A) Should local authority funding be withdrawn, or a fatal situation occurs, that would require the closure of the playgroup and the redundancy of all the staff. A reserve of £39,995 has been set aside to enable these amounts to be paid. This figure has been calculated to cater for this event at any time during the year and includes, Pay in Lieu of Notice, pay for the Current Working Month, estimated unpaid Holiday Pay and Redundancy Pay, for all current employees.
-
B) £10,866 of our reserves is set aside to cater for ‘cash flow’ requirements. This represents approximately (5-weeks) of our annual cash flow expenditure. We feel this to be prudent and necessary.
The Board of Trustees will annually review the amounts of reserves that are required to ensure that they are adequate to fulfil our continuing obligations.
