These liabilities include stsff redundancy costs and the obligations under our lease for our premises. Therefore. the charity's reserving target was £126.754 for 202312024. Throughout the year, our reserves were met. Reserves of the charrty are held in separate bank accounts. in order lo gain full Financial se￿ices Compensation Scheme protection. Vthen sufficient reserves levels are not met. our FX)licy dictates that the Finance Committee. which usually meets quarterly, begin more frequent meetings to closely monitor our finances and to provide guidance to the CEO and the Board. This process has not needed to be triggered during 2023124. Objectives and acllvltles Allsorts supports families who havea child with additional needs in Gloucestershlre.
