The unique nature of our service, the confidential and anonymous support we offer to all our callers means we are

Expenditure

Property Upkeep costs remained high with roof repairs and work in the training room to expand listener shift
capacity. We also replaced the air condilioning compressor.. this cost was capitalised and so spread over seven
years in the financial statements. Other costs include lelephone charges, computer equipment, insuran¢e, Kingston

system for the operations room,. removed an internal space in the operations to expand capacity,. improved heal
insulation in the operations room; added more sound insulation in Ihe operations room and decorated some internal
parts of the branch.
Reserves Policy
The charity holds designated funds for specific expenditure that can be foreseen by the Irustees. Over and above
these designated funds. the charity will hold general free reserves to cover unforeseen items of expenditure or
shortfalls in income. This level of general free reserves is intended to ensure that contractual obligations for contract
payments and direct debits can be met. The charity policy is that this general free reserve will be maintained withln
a range of a year's operating costs. For this purpose. Ihe level of operating costs is Ihe highest annual figure over
the previous three years. As at 31 March 2024, Ihe unrestricted general free reserves totalled £47,013 (excluding
tangible assets of £806,644). Over the last three years. Ihe highest annual operating cost was £56,517, in the year
to 31 March 2024. Hence. the general free reserves position represents 10.0 months of expenditure and is Iherefore
within stated policy.
Fixed Assets
The freehold property at 2 Wheaffield Way. Kingston. F(r12QS, is valued at cost. Fixed assels Gosling more than
£1,000 are capilalised on a straight line basis for the estimated useful life. Other fixed assets are fully costed during
the year of purchase. This freehold property allows Ihe charily to operate without having to pay commeicial rents.
This propety is held in the name of the charity.
