Bexley Women's Aid Trustees, Report Policy on resenys The charity is aNvare of the need to ensure that our reserves are sufficient to cover our costs and the reduction in our funding for 2024125. The Trustees have set aside £90,000 contingency fund as a designated reserve to cover approximately six months running costs of the charity. This is to ensure that sutyicient money is held for redundancies and the wind up of the charity should fundino streams cease. Whilst the Trustees would like to increase this amount further it is not considered appropriate in the current economic climate. A further £5,000 of reserves has been designaied to specific projecls.
