Financial Review

----- Start of picture text -----
Review of the charity’s Para 1.21 There was a delay in having
financial position at the access to the finances due to
end of the period outgoing Trustees not providing
correct information when they
resigned Jan. 2022. However,
income and expenditure were
almost identical leading to a near
net zero impact on funds held.
We left 2022 well placed to
finance MaccPride event in 2023
with anticipated
support/sponsorship from local
businesses and community
groups and potential Local
Community Grant from
Macclesfield Town Council.
Statement explaining Para 1.22 No specific reserves are held.
the policy for holding However sufficient positive
reserves stating why balance funds are maintained at a
they are held level to ensure an ability to pay
all annual event costs. This
ensures financially stability
should there be a poorly
attended, or last minute
cancelled, main event (for
