REPORT OF THE TRUSTE S FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
FINANCIAL REVIEW Reserves policy The Trustee Board beUeves that it is financially prudent that the organisation should hold financial reserves sufficient to enable it to continue its operations and to meet the needs of dients in the event of unforeseen and potentially financially damaging circumstances arising.
It is the charity's policy that funds not pres ntly committed or invested in tangible fixed assets should be maintained at the equivalent of a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 6 months expenditure on unrestricted funds, in order that NPT Carers Service can continue to pursue its activities should there be a period of reduced income. This is considered a prudent approach in the light of funding which is not received in advance.
The Trustee Board believes that there is a need to be cautious in budgeting in order to ensure this level of reserves is achieved and maintained. Careful scrutiny needs to be taken in respect to fundrais ng and funding applications to ensure immediate cash flow is not undermined and reserves are not adversely affected.
Restricted reserves are funds, not yet expended, provided for specific purposes stipulated by the donor or funder and cannot be used for the general purposes of NPT Carers Service. Balances on such funds do not imply that there has been an underspend but may result from a variety of circumstances including liming differences.
Designated res rves are in addition to general unrestrict d funds, which have been designated for specifi purposes by the Trustee Board and the use of such funds is at the discretion of the Trustee Board This reserves policy is monitored and reviewed by the Trustee Board on an annual basis.
The total income of £584,192 (2023: £501,792) was spent on direct charitable expenditure totalling £598,259 (2023: £546,444).
The Statement of Financial Activities reflects the income and expenditure incurred by Neath Port Talbot Carers Service Ud in carrying out its role in respect of its objectives. The general funds at 31 March 2024 were £221,469 (2023: £199,379) and restricted funds £55,104 (2023: £91,261).
PLANS FOR FlIT\JRE DEVELOPMENTS
Plans for the fut re of the service indude enhancing existing services, ensuring sustainability within current funding budgets, identifying any gaps in provis on and taking forward service development by working closely with funders and partners. This indudes co-production with carers across Neath and Port Talbot and the Region. The focus will be ensuring renewed funding and to this end we are progressing a business and operational plan to further enhance our funding opportunities in new income streams. We are working with the West Glamorgan Regional Partnership to create a Hub concept. The remodeling of existing space will allow multiple services to be provided at one tine, as well as providing new services to carers from Neath Carers Centre. Our application has passed the initial stage and is ongoi g.
