After allowing for these and other factors the trustees consider the underlying surplus for the Year to be satisfactory. Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held P*a 112 The major projects undertaken in recent years were funded by a mixture ofgrants, donations and crowd funding activities. with fninimal use of general reSe￿e$, however the club cannot rely on these sources always being available in future. In order for the club to meet major cyclical costs in a timely manner the club needs a fund well in excess of £IOO.OCK).

The club also needs around £IO.OLX) in cash reserves in order to cope with the timing of Cashflov￿ within Èach year and fluctuations in income and costs frorn year to year. In order to build up sufficient funds and not be ovedy dependent on grants the club plans to eamiark around £IO.(XX) per year for this purpose. In the very long term, between 50-1(XJ years. the club is not at present generating sufficient reserves to replace the whole buildin& which, for insurance purposes, has a rebuild valuation of £1.172.990. The club would therefore need to increase its annual surplus to well over £10,000 per year, or rely on future grant funding when the building needs replacing Amount of reseNes held d1.22 £102203 Reasons for holding zero reserves Details of fund materially in deficit Explanation of any uncertainties about the charity continuin9 as a going concem Para 122 Pw8 1.23 Given the level of reserves. there are no major costs or other uncertainties anticipated in the near or medium term that the Trustee5 consider would jeopardise the charity as a going concern.
