What the accounts disclose
“An ideal level of unrestricted reserves as at 31st August 2025 would be equal to the value of the fixed assets included in the accounts as at that date, and one year's operating costs excluding depreciation. Based on 31 August 2025 accounts this would amount to £174,618.”
