What the accounts disclose
“The trustees have agreed that research awards will only be offered if the full cost of the award is already available in the charity's funds. This will minimise risk and ensure continuity for each research project should the charity's income be dramatically reduced. Reserves, therefore, cover the full cost of awards allocated in each annual award round, together with annual funding for the PCRF Tissue Bank.” — page 7
