Reserves pollcy

assists with strategic planning when reviewing new or potential prosectslactivities., infomis the budget
process and enable5 planning for a balanced budget or use of reserves; and it infomis the budget and
risk management process by Identifying any uncertainty in future income streams. Reserves are
reviewed in detail annually but also monitored throughout the year to as5e55 any build up of reserves
or unexpecled depletion of these.
Operational Reserves are required to allow the organisation to continue to delNer its charitable
objects'ves and seek alternative funding SOUTces, shoukf existing annual funding be restricted and to
provide assurance against a risk of an unforeseen emergency or other unexpected need for funds. In
addition, Operational Resen4es provide the organisation with the ability to react to short term
opportunities. In quantifying the level of Operational Reserves required. the level of net current assets
and liabilities are compared to the average monthly expenditure. The risks associated with future
incorne, grants and expenditure are also considered. As a result, the Trustees have determined in their
