## **Financial Review** 

|**Financial Review**|||
|---|---|---|
|Review of the charity’s<br>financial position at the end<br>of the period|Para 1.21|**Due to other demands on Trustees less**<br>**fundraising was completed in the year**<br>**with a total of £858. There was**<br>**significant reduction in costs, to a total**<br>**of £7,529 on operating expenses and**<br>**grants. A balance at the end of the year**<br>**of £9,139.**<br>**The Trustees decided to retain these**<br>**funds at year end to cover expected**<br>**operating costs and to fund and upfront**<br>**cost for future events.**|
|Statement explaining the<br>policy for holding reserves<br>stating why they are held|Para 1.22|**Our policy for reserves aims to**<br>**ensure that on a prudent basis the**|

|||**Trustees have sufficient reserves to**<br>**continue operations. In setting the**<br>**reserves we consider the following**<br>**reasons:**<br>**a) The risk of an unforeseen**<br>**emergency or other unexpected**<br>**need for funds, eg an unexpected**<br>**large bill or finding ‘seed-funding’ for**<br>**an urgent project**<br>**b) Covering unforeseen day-to-day**<br>**operational costs, eg employing**<br>**temporary staff**<br>**c) A source of income, eg a grant,**<br>**not being renewed. Funds might be**<br>**needed to give the trustees time to**<br>**take action if income falls below**<br>**expectations**<br>**d) Planned commitments, or**<br>**designations, that cannot be met by**<br>**future income alone, eg plans for a**<br>**major asset purchase or to a**<br>**significant project that requires the**<br>**charity to provide ‘matched funding’**<br>**e) The need to fund short-term**<br>**deficits in a cash budget, eg money**<br>**may need to be spent before a**<br>**funding grant is received.**|
