Financial Review

Financial Position: The charity finished its first year with a modest loss of ~£300.Depite the onpaper loss, our cashflow position at the end of the year had a small surplus, putting us in a good position for the following years activity. Hawks received a number of small donations throughout the year to assist in achieving our objectives, by purchasing hockey equipment which might otherwise been out of reach.
Reserves Policy: The trustees have established a reserves policy to ensure the charity can continue to operate in the event of an unforeseen decline in income. The current target is to hold [£2,000] in unrestricted reserves, representing [4 months] of operating costs.
Principal Funding Sources: The vast majority of income is from membership subscriptions. The club also charges for certain events outside of the core principle of the club activity. To help make our activities affordable, the club also runs its own clothing shop, making just £2-£4 per item as surplus to cover overheads and hold stock. As a registered charity, the club also seeks charitable donations from individuals and other charities to supplement income and help us achieve financial security.

Plans for Future Periods

Over the next 12 months we will expand our offering to more children and young people. Our target for this period is to reach 250 registered members.
We plan to work even more closely with our facilities provider to secure a plan for future expansion of available facilities, to help us further grow in our mission in the future.
