We work with all sections of the community and welcome all regardless of faith, sexual orientation, race, disability or socio-economical circumstance. ## Finance Financial Reserves KOGS maintains a level of financial reserves in order to meet any unforeseen expenditure that may arise from its charitable activities; the Trustees would at all times aim to maximize the resources used for charitable purposes and therefore ensures that the reserve fund is no higher than necessary. The level of unrestricted funds at the end of 2023 was that is funding that was not allocated or aligned to a project. We aim to hold no less than £200 in free reserves at year end. ## Overall Financial health Through 2016 KOGS successfully secured grants to maintain the delivery of the service. It has been acknowledged that the current climate has required us to think innovatively about finance and seek funding from different places. The coming year will see some alternative funding options such as fundraising and commissioning being explored, as well as grant applications and funding bids. ## Structure and Governance |Type of governing document|Constitution (revised) Mar 2014| |---|---| |How is the charity constituted|CIO| |Trustee selection methods|Annually appointed / reappointed at AGM| |Policies|Child protection
