Page 7

CIRCUSFUL REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 We are increasingly working lo deepen and broaden our range of funders and supporters and in 2022-23 were successful in startlng some new relationships. Prlclng Pollcy As an organisation w8 ar8 conc8m8d to havé an 8qUitable and fair pricing policy for servicès which allows for participation by those who are economically inactiv8 or chall8ng8d, whilsl ensuring the viability of the organisation. Our voluntary contributions and pricing policy is reviewed annually and agreed by the Board of Trustees. Where appropriate a lower contribution is suggested to some families wrth particularfy high levels of economiG disadvantage, particulady if more than one child attends classes. Since the pandemic began, we have been consulting parents on the pri¢8 of clas58s and their ability lo pay and we have extended this work to consider the cosl-of-livlng crisS5, invlting those who can donate rather than increase class fees for all. Reserv•s In 2021-22 the Board approved a new reserves policy which is available on request. The new policy states.. "It is the opinlon of the Board of Trustees that Clrcusful should aim to maintain between 3 and 6 months of unreslricled cash fund5. It is the Board's opinion that this18vel of unr8Strlcted funds is needed to help mi15gate some of the major risks facing the charity in 2022. Based on our expenditure in 2019-20, 6 Months of expenditure in a 'typical' year is £273,468.50. The Board have agreed thal restricted funds, reserve funds and capltal assets will not contrlbute to the agreed target of 3- 6 months unrestricted funds as they cannot be treated as cash and accessed on an immediate basls. Therefore, unrestricted, reserve, restricted and capital funds will be recorded and monltored separately. The Board of Trustees note that In 2020 the bullding was re-valued which saw a considerable increase added to the balance sheet in 2019-20. Therefore. Circusful is actively working towards generating 3 months unrestriclad cash funds, as a minimum wlth a more ideal position In the region of 6 months. It is recognised: This is difficult in the face of the economiG challenges that fa¢e th8 voluntary sector and particulady given the pandemic. • the present level of designated unrestricted reserves thèrefor8 falls short of the t8rg8t lev81. The strategy is to continue lo build reserves through operating surpluses.. The pollcy is r8view8d annually. Expendlture The expenditure across the year was determined in Ihe first inslance by the need to remain stable post pandemic and to ensure a solid foundation from which to build over the year. On an ongoing basis, decisions regarding regular spending are in line with finance policies and procedures established by Circusful. As the year went on, 811 out-of-budget expenditure was checked with an appropriate member of the Board before being committed. More generally. expendiiure across each activity area is reviewed on an ongoing basis by budget holders and issues of viability of activity is brought to the Boards attention. Page 8
