This Should provide sufficient funds to cover operational costs of the current activities of the charity in the event of a 5ignificani declin¢ in donati(Trns income. The period would then give sufficient time trj consider how the filnding would be replaced or the actiyities changed. In addition, the unrestricted resetves also need to be available to fund futur¢ work antlcipated on the temple and any other planned capital ¢xpenditure should the chariry be required to do so within a short tim¢ scale.
