What the accounts disclose
“We started 2024 with a higher than usual amount of unrestricted reserves in the charity account (£10,370) and as would be expected finished the year with a smaller, but still reasonable reserve. Ideally, we would have 6 months’ of unrestricted reserves in the bank in order to underpin our sustainability”
