This provides sufficient funds to cover management and administration and support costs and to respond to emergencies which may arise from time to time. The trustees have set this as a target, and are satisfied that the church is in a position to meet its financial obligations, fund its activities and continue to grow.

Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gifts and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable.
