Ambassadors act on behalf of Postcards For Peace on a voluntary basis. They may suggest ways in which we could help in their particular country or offer feedback on the work we are doing. 

They do not have access to, nor are offered, charity funds. 

You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: 

- policy on grantmaking; 

- policy programme related investment; 

- contribution made by volunteers.

## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

**Some major religious celebrations marked on social media.** Sales through the online shop continued without any advertising, albeit at a slower pace. 

## **Section E                    Financial review** 

March **2012** 

**TAR**

At this point, Postcards For Peace does not have a reserves policy. 

**Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves** 

## **Details of any funds materially in deficit** 

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. 

Income has come solely from online sales of postcards, T-shirts, cards and CDs. 

The most significant cost is the Cost of Goods Sold. This is the total cost of Postcards bought during the year, but then adjusted to remove the value of the year end stock as that has not been sold in the year. The cost value of stock was £1,509. Much of the money from the website shop sales has been invested into creating other products because we believe that the items we sell also help to educate and raise awareness of our work. 

We have taken a very cautious approach to our funds and have always ensured that we maintain a contingency for unexpected costs.
