What the accounts disclose

Reserves policy: sufficient funds to cover likely donations of the next quarterly meeting (held: £10k)
“The Trustees have no policy of retaining significant reserves, other than to ensure, whenever possible, that sufficient funds are held at any one time to cover the likely donations of the next quarterly meeting although this is not essential since the Trustees have power to use both the Unrestricted Income Fund and the Expendable Endowment Fund should the need arise.” — page 7
