R15k Management
The Directors have reviewed the major risks to the charlty. The cost-of-living crls15 ha5 presented
slgnificant challenges, financial uncertainty to Yourstory and mental, health and emotional well-
beSng risk5 to our staff, young people and families we work with. The unstable economy in
2023 had a major Impact on the financial Investments of grant fundin8 or8anisations and Trusts,
which had the knock-on effect of reduced size of 8rants available In the future or more cautious
approach to announcing funding rounds. At the sarne tirne, we experlenced greater needs and
higher rates of vulnerablllty amongst our young people and thelr famllles throughout the cost-of-
Ilving crlsis.
We had five grants ending in 2023 and 3 new multiyear 8rants startir)g in 2023. These grants helped
and will help us to grow and expand our reach of work In the community wlth chlldren, youn8 people and
their familles.
We work wlth an Independent VCSE consultant who provide5 in-kind strate8ic fundraising, IAG and
capacity-building support. This support is vitally important as due to post-COVID and the cost-of-
Ilving crisis there Is ever-increasing competltion for grant opportunltles, In a continued dSfflcult
financial market.
Progress has been made in identifying suitable funding and contracts within the public and voluntary
sectors and entering partnerships with the prlvate sector and larger voluntary organisations. Project
delivery in terms of staff and beneficiary personal safety are ever-more challenging and it is
Imperative we continue to invest in our infrastructure, health and safety precaution5 and governance.
The nature of a large proportion of grant5 IS that they are focused on project delivery. which does not

Financial review
Reserves and Investment Policies
The Company continLied its bankine fac.ilitip£ with Rarr.lay.s Rank Plc. The Companws financial
reserves are limited, and all funds held earn interest tied to the bank's base rate. The Company
does not have an Investment policy. The Directors will review both this and the reserves policy
when the Companvs cash reserves increase.
Resebyes Pollcy
The reserves are needed to meet the working capital requirements of the Company and to meet its
obligations In the event of a significant drop in funding. The Company needs sufflcient resetves to
maintain a reasonable level of actlvity on any programme. includin8 the continued employment of
the relevant memberls) of staff in the event of a gap in the provision of income. It often tokes time
for grant-making bodies to respond to requests and payment of 8rants does not necessarily follow the
Company's financial year. We also need sufficient funds to meet our legal obligations to staff in the
event of terminatlon of an employment contract and meet ex gratia payments approved by the
Directors or to fund temporary staff in the absence of permanent staff le.g. slck leavel.
We have worked hard to meet the Board's alm for reserves to be between three and slx months.

Workin8 Wlth the current level of expenditure, reserve5 Should be maintained between £60,000 and
£120,000. Our reserves are down from the previous year and aro below the requlred level. We expect
to see better re5uIt5 in the next 24 months as we continue to target unrestricted income.
At the end of the year the company held reserves of £12,375.
Future Plans
