What the accounts disclose

Reserves policy: six months costs (held: £16k)
“the Association will seek to build its reserves to a level which will provide a minimum of six months costs, including possible staff redundancies, plus an amount appropriate to cover any temporary shortfalls in income in order to meet legal and other obligations.”
Per its FY2025 accounts as filed with the Charity Commission.
Going concern: noted by the trustees or auditor
“The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention and on a going concern basis, which is dependent upon the availability of adequate continued funding. The nature of the Association’s funding is inherently uncertain as it is only agreed by the funding bodies each year. Should funding be discontinued in future years, the Association would have to find other sources of funding or significantly curtail its activities.” — page 12
