charity's
policy on reserves|In order to retain sufficient cash reserves to finance concerts at large
venues such as the Fairfield Conceit Hall, and to ensure that a future
lockdown
would not cause the Band to close, we are aiming for reserves
tobe about 50'A ofsubscription
income.
Due to it being the Band's 50th| ||anniversary,
two concerts were held at the Faiifield Concert Hall, which| ||made losses due to the high rental ofthe venue.
The general reserve of
K2,316as at 31August 2023 represented
36%ofgeneral subscriptions
for the year. The budget for 2023/24 has been set to generate a small| ||surplus,
which
will increase the general reserve towards the 50%.| |Details ofany funds materially
