This was a new charity, and we have 5 Trustees as below who have kindly given up their free time to raise funds and are all volunteers.
Financial review and reserves policy
The Charity was set up in December 2020, but we could not raise funds until the Bank account was opened. Due to covid and other challenges the bank account was opened finally in April 2021, and we received a donation from NatWest bank for delays of £250 as a gesture of goodwill. Therefore, the charities tax has been submitted in April of this year. We have had a very successful year in raising funds and building string relationships with donors and businesses who are happy to make donations that we can distribute to other charities in India and if needed in the UK.

The charity aims to continue with its long-term projects in India. In countries where an urgent need arises the charity will aim to aid with food, clothing and medical needs and in the advancement of education.
Reserves Policy
It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds at a level, which equate to approximately 12 months unrestricted expenditure.
Risk Management
The trustees actively review the major risk, which the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintaining reserves at current levels, combined with an annual review of the controls over key financial systems, will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. The trustees have also examined the operational and business risks faced by the charity and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate the significant risks.
There are no uncertainties about the charity continuing as a going concern.
The Trustees actively review all major risks which the Charity faces and drawn up a risk assessment which is reviewed at every meeting. The Trustees are satisfied that all systems are in place and arrangements have been made to manage any risks identified.
