FINANCIAL REVIEW
Investment policy and objectives
Under the Constitution, the charity has the power to make any investment which the trustees see fit. The trustees have considered the most appropriate policy for investing funds and have found that business high interest accounts meet the requirements to generate both income and allow the funds to be readily available.
Reserves policy
The trustees have examined the charity's requirements for reserves in the light of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be between three and six months of the expenditure.
FUTURE PLANS
Nursery has designated times to use the Eco-pod as does the School and these will be adjusted following discussion. The Eco-pod will be offered to a wider range of local groups and organisations over the coming years and months, fundraising activities will be expanded.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
