These reserves cover unknown future costs and allow any fluctuations in donations not to impact on the work of the charity or expose the charity to any financial risk. As of 31[st] March 2023, the free reserves were £85,778 because of modest expenditure and the board plans to designate the excess reserves towards the purchase of church building. This amount is contentiously being reviewed to ensure it meets current and future risks. ## **Disclosure of Information to Independent Examiner** So far as each trustee is aware at the time this report is approved, there is no relevant information of which the charity's independent examiners are unaware.
