Give here brief details Risk and uncertainty from Covid-19. of any items that the examiner wishes to disclose .
COVID-19: This note follows up the prior years note regarding Covid-19. With much thanks and praise to the Lord, the majority of the world has bounced back from the pandemic. While there remain some tail-end risks to this, at the time of completing these accounts, the Trustees believe that there are no events or outflows immediately result in the Reading CCC requiring a full depletion of its reserves.
The Trustees of Reading CCC have, in their view, taken all reasonable measures to ensure reasonable safety of all its employees and congregation members to minimise the spread of COVID-19, and will continue to be advised by the NHS, WHO the UK Government and equivalent local authorities on the appropriateness of whether this situation will resolve itself so Reading CCC can resume its Charitable objectives once again without hindrance.
The Trustees are thankful for the Lord’s provision throughout these challenging times.
