The financial 5tstements as presented show a net surplus of fund5 for the period of £43.438. Performance against the charitsble aims and objectives of the organisation are noted in the section titled "Achievements and Performance". The Dirertors and Trustees have examined the Church's requirements for free reserves in the light of the predominant risks to the Church. The main risk is identified as a durtion in the Church membership giving rise to a redurtion in income. The Dirertors and Trustees have reviewed the reserves policy and consider it is appropriate to retsin months as well as an amount sufficient to cover capitsl costs rf equipment were damaged. This total is less than the amount held in reserves at 30 June 2021. At 30 June 2021 the general reserves amounted to £187.198. The trustees note that expenditure has decreased during the pandemic while income has remained fairly stable up to this point. The trustees expect income and expenditure to continue to vary in 2021/21. That said. the current reserve amount far outstrips 3 months of nmnrng Costs and so the trustees have designated £IOO.(MJJ of the general reserves to the Building Fund that will be used to facilitste the purchase or development of church buildings when the opportunity arises.
