What the accounts disclose
“The JNC generates its income resources predominately from ebrain. Ebrain content is licensed to University College London and the International League Against Epilepsy and there are also institutional and individual subscriptions.” — page 7
“The trustees consider that a moderately high level of reserves is necessary so that in the event of a funding gap, the charity could continue funding its activities whilst other sources of income are found. The trustees therefore consider that a contingency fund in excess of the general reserve is required.” — page 8
