The remaining half was added to the general unrestricted fund (general reserve}, increasing its value accordlngly. There We￿ no transfers out of either reserve. The combined funds of the charity at the end of FY24-25 totalled £241,476 (detalled below}. Statement explalnlng the pollcy for holdlng reserves ststlng why they are held Para 1.22 The Charities adopted the Reserve Investment policy, approved 15 February 2025, states: ALSAGER INSTrruTE RESERVES POLICY Unrestrfcted Funds - General Alsager Institute wlll maintain a general unrestrlcted fund {general reseNel: A sum approximately equal to 25%- 50% of its net revenue expenditure To provlde a contingency due to the uncertainty over future Income, to allow tlme to develop new sources of Incorne or to cut back on related expenditure. Unrestrlcted Funds - Deslgnated Capltal Reserves Alsager Institute will build a capital reserve to provide financing toward5 its Planned Maintenance Programme. Earmarked Reserves Alsager Institute will establish earmarked reserves as appropriate. Restrlcted Funds - Income Alsager Institute will classify any extemal grant funding received that is provided for specific purposes or projects, as restricted income funds. Alsager Institute may approve the reclassification of ￿strIcted income funds into unrestricted funds once it has been established that they can be lawfvlly transferred. That Alsa8er Institute Trustees Annual Report FY24-25

would be subject to the terms imposed by the provlder of the funding. The reclassification must be reported in accordance with the requirements of FRSIO2. Restrlcted Funds- Endowment (Capltsl): Pemianent Alsa8er Institute holds a permanent restricted endowment fund in the way of the Institute land and buildings. As explained above, since the Charity presently has no power to convert the capltal into income (without first seeking permi55ion from the Charity Cornmission), itls classified as a permanent endowment fund. Any use of the property outside of the trusts in place could only lawfully occur if the Commission authorises thls by way of a further Scheme. If that were to occur, the asset could be reclasslfied as an expendable restricted endowment funds and the reclassification must be reported in accordance with the requirements of FRSIO2. Amount of reserves held Para 1.22 The comblned funds of the Char5ty at the end of FY24-25 totalled £241,476: £205,000 permanent endowment fund £230 designated unrestricted funds, an earmarked reseNe to finance new bllnds which originated from un-spent budget from FY24-25 (not from external grant funding) £700 designated unrestricted funds, an earmarked reserve to finance a VAT review in FY24-25 whlch origlnated from un.spent budget In FY22-23 (not from external grant funding). £12,614 designated unrestricted funds earmarked as a capital reserve. £22,932 general unrestricted income fund. Reasons for holding zero reserves Details of fund materially in deficit Para 1.22 Not applicable- the Charity has resenies. Para 1.24 The Charity hold5 a level of general reserve which is within the level as determined by the approved reserves pollcy.

This is identified in the FY25-26 budget with the requirement to secure external grant funding to contrlbute towards costs, in Alsa£er Institute Trustee5 Annual Report FY24-25

conjunction with the charitvs own capital reserves. Explanation of any uncertaintles about the charity contlnuing as a going concern Para 1.23 There are no uncertainties about the Charity continuing as a going concern at present. The Charity signed a licence to occupy with Cheshire Learning and Development Centre which requires six months notice from either party to terminate. At the point of the report being approved, the licen￿ to occupy is ongoing with no noti￿ being served, and no knowledge of an intent to do so by elther party. The Charity signed a Ilcence agreement with The Den, a before and after school provider in November 2021 giving a regular Income to the Institute, with six months notice requlred to surrender the licen￿. Alsager Institute Bowling Club continues to utilise the Charity's bowling green. Also, there are a number of regular hirer5 Utilising the facilities. Hirers of the buildin8 do so on short to medium term contracts and the rlsk of loss of a hlrer Is always a rlsk faced by the charit Addltlonal Informatlon (optlonal) You may choose to Include further statements where relevant about: SORP Reference Para 1.47 The charltys princlpal sources of funds {Includln8 any fundralslng> Income from hlrers. External grant fundlng which has historically been sourced prlmarily from Alsager Town Councll and on occasion from other organisations. Investment policy and objectives including any soclal Investment policy adopted Para 1.46 The Charity's Reser￿$ and Investment policy, approved 15 February 2025, states: Scope of Investment powers As an unincorporated charity, Alsager Institute has a 'general power of Investmenv which allows trustees to invest the charitvs funds in any asset that is specifically Sntended to maintain and Increase its value and/or produce a financial return. Investment Objectives The two primary objettives of a prudent investment policy are: l. The securlty of reserves {protecting the capital sum from loss) Alsager Institute Trustees Annual Report FY24-25

  1. Liquidity (keeping the money readily available for expenditure when needed) Once proper levels of security and liquidity are determlned it wlll then be reasonable to consider a third objective. what level of yield can be obtained consistent with the first two objective5. Investment Priorltles Alsager Institute's investment prioritles therefore are: the security of Sts reserves, and the adequate Ilquldlty of its investments, and the return (yleldl on investment- Alsa8er Instltute wlll aim to achieve the optimum return on Its Investments commensurate wlth proper levels of security and liquidity. All investments wlll be made in sterling. All Investments of money under the control of the Alsager Institute shall be In the name of the Alsager Institute. Alsager Instltute takes a cautlous approach to risk. Investments should be relatlvely risk free as the charlty needs certalnty over future available funding. In order to diversify an investment portfolio which will mainly be invested in cash, Investments with any one financial institutlon will be capped at the deposlt Ilmlt covered by the Flnanclal Servlces Compensation Scheme. Investments will be placed with a range of approved financial institutions to ensure maxlmum recovery should any institution collapse. Alsager Institute will only invest in institutions of high credit quality- based on information from approved credlt ratlng agencies (Moody's Investors Service Ltd, Fitch Ratings Ltd or Standard and Poorfs). High credit quallty is defined as a body or investment scheme with an 'A' or Pl rating. The risk of loss on investments will be monitored by review of credlt ratings on a quarterly basis. Alsager Institute will assess the risk of loss before enterin8 into, and whilst holdlng, an Investment. Alsager Institute Trustees Annual Report FY24-25

Non Specified Investments These have greater potential risk, such as investment in stocks and shares, and Alsager Institute will not participate in such Investments, whlch are considered not to offer the level of security and liquidity needed. Long-term Investments Alsager Institute may consider a 2 or 3 year Bond being entered into in the future if the investment rate was attractive and the trustees were confident, after having performed an assessment, that funds could be committed for that period of time. Automatlc Balance Sweeplng Alsager Instltute will invest through Its bank where appropriate by a series of linked accounts which allow transfer of money not Immediately required to successfulty hlgher interest Investment. The Charltle5 Llquldlty Needs Alsager Institute will determine the maximum period for which funds may prudently be invested, 50 as not to compromlse liquidlty. This assessment will be connected to spending plans In the short to medium term, Includlng financin8 required for the planned malntenance programme for buildings. The Policy quotes the recommendations of Charity Commission guidance 14- charities and investments matters, regarding givin8 consideratlon to the envlronmentsl and soclal impact of the companies invested Sn, and refers trustees to this best prartice. A descrlptlon of the prlnclpal risks facSng the charity Para 1.46 The prlnclpal rlsk Is from loss of income from use of the venue. Hirers of the buildin8 do so on short to medium term contracts. Also, there is risk of major works being required on the fabrlc of the bulldlng arislng from building inspectlons, emergency repair or maintenance requirements. The limited reserves set aside for such work means this work would need external grant funding. The Charity is developing a funding strategy whlch identifie5 and addresses risk5 and opportunities it faces and incorporates a robust Alsager Institute Trustee5 Annual Report FY24-25

plan to ensure it can continue to deliver its objectives. Regarding market risk and its imiestments, under the UK money-market funds regulation, the COIF Charities Dep051t Fund is a 5hort-term low volatility net asset value money-market fund. The fund is not the same as making a deposit with a bank or other deposit taking body and is not a guaranteed investment. The value of deposits may be affected by Interest rate changes. The fund does not rely on external support for guaranteeing the Ilquidity of the fund or stabilising the net asset value. The risk of loss of principal Is borne by the depositing charity. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. The value of deposits and the Income from them may fall as well as rise. Other Nota Ilcable.

Independent examiner's report on the accounts Section A Independent Examiner's Report Report to the trustsesl membern of Alsager Institute On accounts for the period ended March 31¥1 2025 Charity no (if any) 520002 Set out on pages Respe￿1ve rn8pon8lbllltle8 The charty's trustees are responsible for the preparatlon of the accounts. The of trustoos and examlner charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charltles Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responslbility to: examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charitles Act, to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145{5)(b) of the Charities Act, and to stste whether partlcular matters havg come to my attention. Ba818 of Independent My examination was carried out in accordan￿ with general directions given by the examlner'6 ststement Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts pres6nted with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees conceming any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present 'true and falr, view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the ststemant below. Ind•pondent examln•rf8 In connection with my examlnatlon, no matter has come to my attention.. statsm•nt which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements: to keep accounting records In accordance with section 130 of the Charlties Act,. and to prepare accounts which accord wlth the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Chartties Act have not been met., or 2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
