In the event that the charity faces closure any reserves held will be in the charity account. |
| Amount of reserves held | Para 1.22 | |
| Reasons for holding zero reserves |
Para 1.22 | We operate on a very tight budget. When we work with grants from the Arts Council England we set out our budget as part of our application to balance our income with our spending. This system does not allow for reserves. |
