ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
The Trustees aim to keep the reserves of the charity sufficient to cover six months of resource.
The charity currently operates with minimal reserves, with no specific investments other than a bank account. The Trustees will try to increase the level of reserves.
Our principal objective is to give grants to Hospices. We have adopted a funding policy and provided clear guidelines and procedures to Hospices applying for our support. All Trustees are involved in the approval of grants.
Trustees will be informed of current level of reserves and any ring fenced funds prior to agreeing any grants. The Trustees do not agree grants without having the full amount available at that time.
No single grant should leave the charity without the reserves to manage the Charity effectively.

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
