opencountry Open Country: Charity Number 1107331 Trustees, Annual Report Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held Reserves are required to bridge the gap between expenditure and income, to cover unplanned emergency expenditure and to develop new services. Total funds as at 31 March 2025 amounted to £602.945 (2024: £589,793) of which £446,564 (2024: £360,789) was unrestricted. However, the unrestricted funds at 31 March 2025 include functional fixed assets (e.g. minibuses and other equipment required for the Chariws activities) of £146.796 that are essential for the Charity's activities and £33,927 in a fund designated by the trustees. These are therefore excluded from free reserves. Therefore, the Charitws reserves freely available to spend at 31 March 2025 were £265,841 (2024.. £236,546). The Charity seeks to achieve sufficient reserves to cover six months, expenditure on charitable activities (£290,000) plus the estimated costs of meeting all commitments on a winding-up of the organisation (£90,000): a total of £380,000. Whilst reserves freely available to spend increased during the year ended 31 March 2025 at that date free reserves were significantly below the amount required to meet the trustees, reserves policy. The charity remains in a good financial position to withstand the challenges posed through increased costs and the anticipated reduction in new funding streams which has been borne ovt in the current financial year. As a result, the trustees are budgeting for a substantial deficit in the financial year ending 31st March 2026, whilst continuing to seek new funding which is essential to ensure the sustainability of our charitable activities. The reserves policy is reviewed annually.
