## Financial Review 

Brief Statement of the charity’s policy on reserves 

Whilst no specific amount is set aside for reserves, a current account balance of around £2000 is maintained for monthly running costs and small unplanned expenses. The majority our funds are held in a HSBC Business Money Management Account with relatively easy access. Our Hall is of timber construction and located next to our beach, overlooking Falmouth Bay. It is exposed directly to some very harsh weather and is beginning to show signs of necessary maintenance / repairs, which we continuously monitor.

Further Financial Review Whilst we have a reliable income from the hire of the Village Details Hall and its facilities, and its regular user groups, it is maintained in excellent condition to attract outside hirers. Our rates are either non-commercial to encourage local activities, and commercial, where the facility is used to enhance a profit led business purpose. We have a beach based ‘car park’ (approx. 80 vehicles) for which we ask minimum £2 per day donation, and we rent ‘Beach Berths’ for small boats, dinghies and kayaks, for which we charge between £9 and £13 per linier foot per Anum.
