## **Financial Review** 

|**Financial Review**|||
|---|---|---|
|Review of the charity’s<br>financial position at the end<br>of the period|Para 1.21|During 2021 the Trust received £272 in<br>donations from the organisers of the Frome<br>Half Marathon (The Race Organiser). The<br>Trust has been set up with a lump sum<br>raised from the Frome Half Marathon<br>between 2012 and 2016 and a small<br>contribution is expected each year from the<br>proceeds of this event. Due to the impact of<br>Covid-19, The Race Organiser was only<br>able to make a small contribution to the<br>Trust in 2021. During 2021 the charity<br>made an overall small loss as the lump<br>sum originally donated gradually gets<br>allocated through grants made.|
|Statement explaining the<br>policy for holding reserves<br>stating why they are held|Para 1.22|The Trust does not deliberately hold<br>Reserves. A lump sum was given to the<br>Trust at its inception and this is added to<br>each year. It is expected that this lump sum<br>will gradually diminish as grants are made<br>in future years.|
|Amount of reserves held|Para 1.22|£18,000|
|Reasons for holding zero<br>reserves|Para 1.22|N/a|
|Details of fund materially in<br>deficit|Para 1.24|See above|
