R•s8M8 Polley
The Group's polw on reseNes is to hO￿j suffic*nt
sourLe5 to continue the Charitab￿ actwit*s of the group

sum equivalent lo 6 months running costs for HQ and r￿e￿
costs. , thts arnounts to £6,000 section cost running re¥erve.
and £15,000 HQ & Minibus running reserve.
Quantfy and •Wain any desvJnations
The Group hekj reserves of approximately £33.0(X) against
this at year end. This is above the ￿ve1 reqUI￿d fo
operating expen58s. Ho￿Ver thi5 can be explained, due to
£7,000 being hehl to pay caprtatK)n fees due to the ScL)Ut
AssouatK)n in January 2024 (annual rnember5hip fees), and
rca £26.0(K> being hekl for the ￿pL9¢ernent ol the group
