d) Financial Review
The full finance breakdown has been shared in the Accounts which accompany the reports sent ahead
of the AGM.
Financial Overview
Total income for the year was £96,970 compared to £112,123 in 2024, a dee￿ase of £15,153 as
short-tem) grants came to an end and the funding landscape became rn0￿ challenging and
competitive
Total expenditure for the year was £121,313 compared to £131,051 representing a saving of
£9,739 in line with the lower income.
Net income was regrettably therefore a loss of £24,343 which was £5,415 h￿her than 2024.
Fortunately the charity was able to cover this loss by drawing on reserves brought forward from
2024.
Total Charity Funds (net assets and cash reseNes) at the end of the financial year were £38,561
compared lo £62,904 in the previous year broken down as follows.
Unrestricted Funds at the year*nd.. £27,421 (prior year £29,044)
Restricted Funds at the year*nd. £11,140 (prior year £33,860)
Funding Sources Most of the funding is derived from grants. In this financial year the principal
funders were London Borough of Camden, Greater London Authority, The National Lottery, City
Bridge Foundation, The Hampstead Wells and Campden Trust, Charles Hayward Foundation,
London Catslyst, Vandervall Foundation, Comic Relief. A small amount of income, £381, is from
membership fees.
Reserves Pollcy: The charity's policy is to maintain unrestricted reserves of an amount equal to
three months operational costs. As of 31 March 2025, unrestricted reserves were £27.421 which
satisfy this criterion and only gives 3 months, worth of operational costs.
Investment Policy: The chanty has never had sufficient funds to warrant making long term

Henna Asian Vvomen's Group
Company Limited by Guarantee
Year ended 31 March 2025
investrnents and all funds are held as bank deposts. Should the need arise in the future the
Trustees will develop an investment Frf)licy in the context of the prevailing financial climate.
Rlsk Management: The Board periodically reviews and updates the risk register to ensure risks
are identified and appropriate measures are taken to mitigate them. The principal risks that arose
in this financ5al year stemmed from fundraising market condrtions remaining tough. resulting in a
reduction in net income and erosion of unrestricted reseNes.
Going Concern: The Trustees have a reasonable expectstion that the charity has adequate
sources to continue in operational existence for the fO￿Seeable future.
Small company provislons: This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions
applicable to companies entitled to the srnall companies exemption.
o) Future Plan8
For the following financial year 202&2026, key objectives for the Trustees a￿ to:
Financial.. implement rneasU￿ which will decrease costs and increase income in order to stem
losses and replenish unrestricted reserves
