Members: have the full rights and obligations described in the UKPA constitution, including the right to vote on members decisions. 2. Associate Members:non-voting class of membership as described in the UKPA constitution. ## **3.3 Risk and Internal Control** These are: ## **3.3.1 Reduction or Loss of Members** If there were a reduction in membership ofthe UKPA then there would have to be a contraction, consolidation or closure of its activities. ## **3.3.2 Reduction or Loss of Volunteers** The UKPA is totally reliant upon volunteers to run and administer the activities of the UKPA. If there were a reduction in the number of volunteers to an unacceptable level, then there would have to be a contraction, consolidation or closure of activities. ## **4 Achievements and Performance** Due to unforeseen circumstances concerning the venue, PyCon UK did not take place as planned in 2024. The UKPA provided a grant in support of the Python in Education Day which took place in Oxford on October 14th, 2024. ## **5 Financial Review** ## **5.1 Reserves Policy** The UKPA has undertaken a review of its potentialliabilities in the face of foreseeable risks and determined that a reasonable sum to hold in reserve is that required to cover a year’s operational expenditure plus some contingency for unforeseen costs: £5,000. At the end of March 2025, the UKPA held reserves of £6,639.68. All funds raised from PyCon UK conferences prior to 2023 are currently held by PyCon UK Society Ltd (PUKSL). Funds from the 2023 PyCon UK conference are held by the wholly owned subsidiary trading company,UKPA Trading Ltd (UKPATL). The intention is that funds held by PUKSL will be transferred to UKPATL and PUKSL will be closed.
