## **9. FUND TRANSFER** 

In 2020 Ravenhill made an upfront payment from Unrestricted Funds to Young Life International to secure the placement of a worker in the congregation for a period of 5 years. During 2022 a grant of £10,000 was received from the Presbyterian Church in Ireland’s Council for Mission in Ireland towards that upfront payment to Young Life International. As the grant is for a restricted purpose it has been included under Restricted Funds however as the expenditure to which it relates was incurred in 2020 the £10,000 is then transferred from Restricted Funds to Unrestricted Funds.
