Review
Review ofthe charity's Para 1.21 Regular giving remained
about the same as
financial position at the end the previous year and the total Income was
ofthe period also similar. The expenditure
has risen
considerably over the previous year as
schools and colleges re-opened.
Fees,
transport,
accommodation
and general
prices have also all increased
in Uganda.
The financial position at the end of the year
is very healthy
with enough
in the various
pots to cover most ofthe next year's
commitments subject to the regular giving
continuin
at a similar level.
Statement explaining the Para 1.22 AGLMUK does not have a specific reserves
policy for holding reserves policy but does hold some unrestricted
stating why they are held funds available for unexpected
or
emergency needs. Some funds dedicated
to individuals are deliberately
allowed to
.accumulate to a point where, for example,
a course can be afforded. There is more in
the account than would
normally
be the
case for the reason stated above.
