Reserve and Investment Policy

It is the objective of the charity to ensure unrectricted funds are kept at a level which provides sufficient funds to cover management, administration and support costs on an on-going basis. Based on the charity's size, the context of future plans, the level of our financial commitments and contractual obligations held. It's our policy to maintain unrestricted reserves of not less than equivalent of three months recurrent expenditure.

The Charity has a policy of keeping any surplus liquid fund in short-trem deposits which can be readily acccessed and where the capital is protected. The objective of the investment policy is to maximise interest while limiting risk. This policy is adopted as the surplus funds are expected to be used in the near future to fund future committment.

Risk Management

The Trustees have conducted a review of the major risks which the charity is exposed, in particular those to operations and finances of the charity. The Trustees review the risk regularly at their meetings and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate the Charity's exposure to major risks.

Appropriate checks, for example DBS, supported by relevant training and regularly reviewed policies are made for all those who work with children or other vulnerable groups within the Charity. Where appropriate, systems have been established to mitigate the risk the charity faces. Significant external risks to funding have led to the development of a strategic plan which will allow for the diversification of funding activities. Internal control risks are minimised by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions.
