	monitor current and forecast cash flows to

	have set a minimum reserves policy as follows:
	1. A minimum reserve will be
	maintained sufficient to cover 4 months
	monthly costs., principally costs related
	to our employee but also accounting
	costs, plus any costs of winding up the
	charity. This is to allow one month to
	plan and agree a wind-down and then
	give 3 month's notice to employees (our
	current employee has a notice period of
	one month).
	Should we take on any further 2.
	contractual commitments (for example
	renting premises), the minimum reserve
	will be adjusted to make sure we remain
	able to meet all liabilities on a wind-down.

	3. Where taking on a new employee,
	we will onlydo so if we have an additional
	reserve sufficient to pay them for 12
	months (including the 3 months provided
	above).
