R•serv•s
The Trustees have reviewed and revised the Chanty's reserves policy in developing and approving
financial plans and budgets for 2021122. The purpose of the reserves policy is to ensure the stability of
the delivery of the mission and ongoing operations of the Chillem Foodbank.
Unrestricted general fijnd ieserves are intended to provide an inlemal source of fvnds for situations
such as a sudden increase in expenses, one-time unbudgeted expenses, unanticipated reduction in
funding, or uninsured losses.
The current target range for unrestricted general fvnd reserves is based on a risk-based approach.
hen assessed this equates lo a minimum fijnd balance of befvleen £75,000 to £100,000, which
represents approximately 9 to 12 months of planned expenditure.
In addition, the Trustees have considèred the level of General Funds held at the end of the financial
year in the context of the exceptional level of donations received during the financial year in response
to the Covid-19 crisis. The level of unrestricted funds held is £252.750. which is £152,750 in ex¢ess of
the reserves target. Against that background, the Trustees have earmarked £100,000 of General Fund
Reserves as a Designated Fund.
Following the appointment of a new Coordinator and tsvo new Trustees. the Board have begun a
proGess of reviewing the strategy of the charity lo achieve its obl￿ts over the next 3 10 5 years. The
Designated Fund will enable delivery of the revised strategy and is expected lo be expended over that
period. It is anticipated that the balance of excess reserves will be spent over the next years during
which time income is likely to be lower than already planned expenditu￿.
In addition, a reserve of £2,000 was made for dilapidations.
Foodbank Van
The van purchased by the Buckinghamshire Building Society in 2013 continues to be well used for the
collection of goods from Tesco, Sainsbury's and Waitrose as well as delivery of boxes lo the Chalfont
Sl Peter distribution centre. However. annual mileage is low and a ￿plaCeMent will hopefvlly not be
required for a number of years.
CFB is grateful to Oakleigh Garage in Chesharn for the fre¢ provision of servicing and MOT inspection
during the year.
Chlltern Foodbank Fu•1 Bank
In October 2019 CFB started to operate a Fuel Bank. The Fuel Bank is jointly financed by the Paradigm
Foundation and CFB. each of whom contributed £3,000 and a separate bank account was estsblished
for these funds. CFB have continued lo work with two Referral Partners- Chiltem Citizens Advice and
Paradigm Housing A5so¢ialion. The aim of the Fuel Bank is to provide small grants1£28 for single
people and £49 for couples and families) to contnbule towards energy costs. These grants are given In
the form of a code that clients tske to a PayPoinl outlet or a Post Office (for British Gas customers ontyl
and their fuel card is topped-up with the relevant amount- $0 no money changes hands. Clients are
allowed only one grant per annum.
The Fuel Bank activities were briefly suspended at the beginning of the year to enable volunteers to
