The accounts state that the charity held £67,022 in unrestricted funds at the end of the year, resulting in a surplus of £6,430 for the period. The trustees report that the charity does not consider it necessary to hold a reserve because it is a very small charity that only recruits apprentices when it can afford to do so.
