What the accounts disclose
Reserves policy: Building fund for permanent replacement, major repairs/renewals/maintenance, and £150,000 for emergency temporary trading site (held: £981k)
“Reserves were created from past donations and legacies as a building fund for a permanent replacement for the Day Centre within the village of Hassocks. The Board decided a few years ago that the funds should also be available for any major expenditure on repairs, renewals and maintenance. This is because it is becoming much more difficult to obtain grants and donations for anything other than new projects. The reserves include a sum of £150,000 to allow temporary trading at another site in the event of an emergency that make the current building unusable.” — page 6
