Investment Policy
The trustees do not have an investment policy in place as such bLrt they have taken the sensible approach
and placed the charitys liquid assets in interest bearing bank accounts. thus raising some income for the
chariws use whilst ensuring that the money is readily available should it be needed.
Reserves Policy
It is the policy of the trustees to maintain unrestricted funds which are the free reseNes of the charity. at a
level to provide sufficient funds to cover anticipated administration and support costs for a pericKI of 12
months. Any additional reserves are held to provide a capital fund for repairs that will be required for the
upkeep of the premises.
Risk Management
The trustees are aware of the operational and financial risks which the charty fa￿S and regularly reviews
those risks to mitigate against any impact they may have on the charty. The major risks facing the tharity
are the continued success of the social club from which it derives its main funding. the support of
individuals and the community in using the facilities and the introduction of the younger generation to
provide for the future. The Trustees work closely with the directors, committee and members to address
these risks.
