-We act with integrity;
we are honest,
trustworthy|||| |||||||and loyal.|||| |||||||Respect - We have self-respect

policy on reserves
is to hold sufficient resources| |||||||||to continue the charitable
activities ofthe group should
income| |||||||||and fundraising
fall short. The Group Executive considers that| |||||||||the group should
hold the following
sums:
614,210 for one year's
rent (estimated
sum 67,500 in light of| |||||||||rent
review
due
this year),
garage
rent (f1,200 for 23/22),| |||||||||utilities

funds

for

not
yet
been| |||||||||incurred,
reserves of approximately
F22,515were held against| |||||||||this at year end. This is above the level required
for operating| |||||||||expenses.
However
this
can
be
explained
by
higher
