What the accounts disclose

Reserves position: below the charity's own stated reserves policy (held: £-4k; policy: do not retain any income reserves)
“The trustees distribute all income to Rossall School and do not retain any income reserves.” — page 5
Per its FY2025 accounts as filed with the Charity Commission.
Related-party transaction: The document discloses that the trustees receive no remuneration, benefits, or expenses. It also notes that audit/accountancy fees are paid by Rossall School and rent is received from Rossall School. However, no specific monetary amounts are attributed to these related-party interactions in the notes (e.g., Note 6 states fees are paid by the School but does not list an amount; Note 3 lists rent receivable but does not explicitly label it as a related party transaction amount in the note text, though it is implied by the lease to the School). As no specific transaction amounts for related parties are explicitly stated as such in the notes, this field is null.
“The trustees give their time voluntarily and they receive no remuneration, benefits or expenses from the fund. All audit and accountancy fees are paid by the Corporation of Rossall School.” — page 16
