We have still<br>felt the impact of the COVID pandemic with<br>our venues for our usual support groups<br>and coffee mornings / fundraising events<br>unable to accommodate us for various<br>reasons e.g. with one of them being a<br>COVID Vaccination centre.

## **Financial Review** 


**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
Review of the charity’s  Para 1.21  There has not been much financial<br>financial position at the end  movement throughout this year because of<br>of the period  the lack of activity that has taken place.<br>Our only expense has been our public<br>liability insurance (£274) which we felt was<br>imperative to keep in place so we can be<br>ready for whenever activities can resume<br>again.  We have continued to be very<br>fortunate that our rent has been kept on a<br>‘pay as you use’ basis, and we have been<br>offered free storage throughout the year for<br>our belongings.  This has meant that the<br>loss of fundraising opportunities has not<br>been so severely felt as we have not<br>incurred other expenses.<br>Statement explaining the  Para 1.22  We have worked hard since setting up the<br>policy for holding reserves  local project, and then when it became<br>stating why they are held  officially a charity, to keep our bank<br>balance as healthy as possible to withstand<br>the costs we incur during the year such as<br>insurance, rent etc.  We had been looking<br>to reinvest some of this reserve back into<br>the charity’s community, such as training<br>sessions for volunteers, more family events<br>etc which we have started to plan for but<br>again because of the difficulties of the last<br>year we have been unable to arrange<br>anything, but we are ready to start doing<br>this as soon as we are able.<br>Amount of reserves held  Para 1.22  £ 6,348.28 bank balance as of 31 [st]  March<br>2022<br>Reasons for holding zero  Para 1.22  n/a<br>reserves<br>Details of fund materially in  Para 1.24  n/a<br>deficit<br>Explanation of any  Para 1.23  We are not currently concerned about the<br>uncertainties about the  viability of the charity and look forward to<br>charity continuing as a going  returning to supporting our families face to<br>concern  face when we are able.
