The accounts state that the charity's financial position remains very secure, with free and unrestricted reserves of £189,483 at year-end. Although total resources expended (£96,010) exceeded incoming resources (£36,658) resulting in a net expenditure, this was anticipated and reserves are deemed more than sufficient to meet the stated policy target of three months' overheads.
