FINANCIAL REVIEW

The income of the charity is above £29,500. This is a good amount for this first year of the charity the costs have been well managed over this period. The organisation is still in a good position to manage its costs. The main cost of the organisation was paying for the premises it uses for its meetings and the mission expenses for donations to branch churches in Kenya.

It is the policy of the Charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the reserves of the charity at about 3 months of unrestricted expenditure. This provides sufficient funds to cover any emergency expenditures that may arise from time to time. The charity will seek to maintain this level throughout the year.
