Financlal review The income and expenditure for the year is detailed in the accounts. A major financial concern for the Foundation as with any charty will be the ongoing financial sustainability from funding in the years to come. The trustees are awa￿ of the need to maintain free reserves, especially in the current economic climate. Continual fund raising will be ne￿sSary In order to retain sufficient levels of reserves. We would like to acknowledge the continued support of our funders as referred to in note 4 in the accounts. It is important to recognise that their funding really does make an impact. The income for the year wa5 £146K of which £8K was received as grdnt funding. The expendlture of £192K 15 expended on charltable activities. The balance of funds at 31 March 2025 was £246K all of which £287K is unrestritted income. £90K is designated funds.

NIAMH LOUISE FOUNDATION Reserves pollcy and golng ctsncern The Trustees have examined the chaflty's requi￿rnents for reserves considerin8 the main risks to the organlsation and established a fomal policy which stipulates that free reserves be maintalned at a level which ensures that the charity's core activity could continue during a period of unforeseen difficulty. Free reseples are defined by the Trustees as unrestricted income funds freely available for use as the charity 50 determines and thereby excludes any funds commltted, invested in tsngible fixed assets held by the charity and restricted or designated funds, Reserves are needed to bridge the gap between the spendln8 and receiving of Incorne and to cover unplanned emergency repairs and other expenditure. The trustees consider that the Ideal level of reserves as of 31 March 2025 would be £90,000. Without the support of our funders and contlnued fundraising efforts by staff and volunteers, it is doubtful that the Foundatlon could continue operating. The trustees are endeavouring to ensure the suc￿55 wtth a combination of measures Including fundraisers and applications to funding bodies In an effort to secure staff posts and long-temi sustainability of the charity. The trustees have reviewed the circumstances of the Foundation and consider that adequate resources contlnue to be available to fund the activities of the Foundation for the foreseeable future. The trustees are of the view that Foundation is a going concern. A major financial concern for the Foundation as with any charlty will be ongoing financial sustsinability from fundin8 in the years to come. The trustees are aware of the need to rnaintain free reserves, especially in the tur￿nt economlc climate. Contlnual fundraising wlll provide a challenging environment in the years to come. We would like to acknowledge the contlnued support of our funders as referred to In note 4 in the accounts. It 15 important to reco8nise that their funding really does make a change.
