December 202
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Flnanclal position
Income for the year was £28.298 which wa5 a 54VD decrease on the prior year. The decrease was expected for
donations due to the inclusion of a one off significant amounl received in the prlor year and therefore a reduction
back to prior levels now. Grant received a150 reduced in the year.
Expendilurefor the year increased to £51.431 which was an increasa of 7.3% on thfft prior year and together with
the decrease in irthme resulted in a defiGil for the year of £23,133.
The trustees continue to review costs carefully and are also considering the future activities and operations to
ensure it remains viable
Closing funds were £18,577. These a￿ unrestricted and maintsined in order lo fund working capital n88ds. lo
fund unexpected expenditure. for example when projects overrun or unplanned events occur and to fund
shortfalls in income. when income does not reach expected levels. This was the case this year.
This approach is based on an understanding of the income streams and their risk profile. the degree of
commitment lo expenditure and the overall risk environment in which the charity operate5.
PrlnGlpal funding sources
Generous contributions and regular giving from individuals 8$ well as grants.
Reserves poll¢y
It is intended that sufficient reserves are retained in order lo enable th8 charity to undertake its financial
commitments for a minimum of three months. It is noted that we nearly spent the same amount as we received.
