BB24FFD7-CA224722.B3F6-29B2D9C22DC1 TOGETHER FOR THE HARVEST TRUSTEES, REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025 Risk Management The Board has assessed the major risks to which the charity is or may be exposed, and those related to the operations and financing of the charity. It is satisfied that by reviewing its policies, procedures, and systems regularly it is mitigating its exposure to any major operational risks. Reserves Policy It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are free reserves at a level to cover redundancy provision and three months, running costs should no further funding be received. As at the end of the financial year the unrestricted funds totalled £8,956. The charity requires £Nil for redundancy provision and £7,525 for three months running costs, {total £7,525). The trustees plan to increase the unrestricted reserves to the level required by continuing to be prudent where possible with our budget expenditure, and new income through grants and new contractlpartner opportunities for various projects which would also contribute to overall running cost overheads PLANS FOR THE FUTURE In the next year, we are once again partnering with THE4POINTS for the Easter Campaign 2026, and we will continue to hold Church Planting Coalition events - we have a small event for church planters in January and a leaders, lunch to promote it in February. Our goals for 2026 are to bring in more partners- both individuals and churches - support more people and spread the Gospel further and wider. We are also trying to raise money to fund the salary of another senior staff member alongside Nic Harding and are working with Mo Lamine of Faithful Funding to do this.
