## **Financial Review** 

|**Financial Review**|||
|---|---|---|
|Review of the charity’s<br>financial position at the end<br>of the period|Para 1.21|Finances remain healthy.<br>Income was slightly less than the previous<br>financial year at £90,975 vs £93,243. However,<br>as total expenditure was greater the Club made<br>a surplus of £6,242 in 2022-2023 vs £3,004 in<br>2021-2022. We ended the year with approx<br>£49,000 in the bank.<br>Staff wages were increased across the board in<br>line with minimum wage increases, in effect for<br>April’s salaries. The club reviewed the financial<br>impact of various potential increases and<br>checked wages for similar roles in the local area<br>for staff on higher-than-min-wage pay.<br>Overall the number of employed staff and the<br>hours they worked were lower than in the past<br>financial year.<br>The Club’s administrator/bookkeeper resigned<br>at the end of the previous financial year (Aug<br>22), but agreed to continue providing<br>bookkeeping services on a self-employed basis<br>until July 23, when she was replaced by a new<br>self-employed bookkeeper. The Club Leader<br>and Deputy took on some of the administrator<br>duties, and admin and financial processes were<br>reviewed for greater efficiency.|
|Statement explaining the<br>policy for holding reserves<br>stating why they are held|Para 1.22|We have an informal policy to keep approx 3<br>months’ running costs eg £20,000-£25,000 in<br>reserve (but in the same bank account) to<br>enable the club to continue running through<br>times where there is less demand (ie fewer<br>pupils) or for emergencies such as the COVID-<br>19 pandemic.
