Financial review

Brief statement of the charity’s policy
on reserves
Details of any deficit
Donated facilities and services (if any)
The charity’s policy on reserves is to maintain sufficient reserves to allow
ongoing funding of suitable projects even if fundraising in any particular
year is reduced. The charity’s aim is to fund one or two trips of doctors
and nurses annually to Ethiopia and/or Thailand, Nepal and Belize and to
award funding to individual doctors whose applications satisfy the remit of
the charity
The deficit of £6,775 reflects the utilisation of the significant cash reserves
due to prior years’ fundraising and the charity’s continued plan to use
these funds to support quality grant applications that meet the objectives
of the charity.
