Financial Review
Review of the charity's
financial position at the end
of the period
Para 1.21
The charity had cash on account & in
reserve of £30,823.10 at reporting year
end. This is deemed sufficient to enable the
ongoing operation of the charity for the
followin
ears
Reserves are held for two main reasons.
To providing funding required to repair and
replace equipment including safety boats
and secure storage. To cover fixed annual
costs such as sporting association fees &
insurance. Reserves are relatively higher
at year end as the charity activities are
summer based, thus requiring less cash to
be held in zero interest current account for
the off-season with low transactions
At the end of the reporting period
£30,639.98. 100 % reseNes are instantly
transferable to main current account for
activit
use.
