“It is the current policy of the trustees to maintain or increase the value of the capital fund over time, recognising that there will inevitably be fluctuations from changing investment yields, and varying annual expenditure on individual strands of support, particularly as new initiatives are evaluated. The trustees have agreed to using reserves if necessary, to support the planned expenditure.” — page 4
