**policy on reserves**
**Details of any funds materially**
**in deficit**|The charity receives funding for specific purposes which are restricted
funds – these are not available for expenditure on other purposes. The
general reserves are the unspent unrestricted funds of the charity. The
charity currently owns no fixed assets, so the general reserve is held in
cash. The general reserve is therefore the free reserves of the charity
**plus any designated funds**, also termed ‘unrestricted funds’ in the
charity’s balance sheet. The purpose of the general reserve is:
To fund working capital and time lags in the receipt of promised
funds
To fund unexpected expenditure, e.g., when projects overrun, or
unplanned events occur
Manage economic or regulatory changes which may have
unforeseen financial consequences
We assess the level of general reserve needed by looking forward and
considering the risks to our funding balanced against our expenditure
commitments.**Future plans show levels of committed expenditure**
**for which we are seeking funding**, but to ensure we can continue to
operate in accordance with our plans, we hold a general reserve in the
range £10,000 - £12,000 to cover unfunded committed costs for the
next 6 months.
Our general reserve as at 31 March 2022 was £15,780 (of which £8,400
has been designated for salaries), leaving £7,380 of Free Reserves
which is slightly in excess of policy. The Board will review the policy in
Q4 2022.| |---|---| ||n/a| ## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: - the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); - how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; - investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted.

RING20 RESEARCH AND SUPPORT UK CIO INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022 I report on the accounts of Ring20 Research and Support UK CIO for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are set out on pages one to four. Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner The Charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity's Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144 (2) of the Charities Act 2011 (The Act) but that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to.. Examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act., To follow the procedures laid down in Ihe General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under section 145(5){b) of the Charaties Act)., and To state whether particular matters have come to my attention. Basis of independent examiner's Statement My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes considerations of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The Pfocedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. Independent examinerfs statement In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect.. the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

RING20 RESEARCH AND SUPPORT UK CIO INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022 I report on the accounts of Ring20 Research and Support UK CIO for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are set out on pages one to four. Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner The Charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity's Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144 (2) of the Charities Act 2011 (The Act) but that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to.. Examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act., To follow the procedures laid down in Ihe General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under section 145(5){b) of the Charaties Act)., and To state whether particular matters have come to my attention. Basis of independent examiner's Statement My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes considerations of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The Pfocedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. Independent examinerfs statement In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect.. the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
