“The Deposit Account reserve has reduced to a balance of £25,000 on 31 March 2023. The Trustees voted at the March 2022 Trustees meeting to draw down £10,000 from this balance to honour the commitment to the Girls School for its annual grant payment for 21-22, as revenue income from the investment had dwindled due to the unfavourable economic climate, and the cash balance had reduced to a level below what is required.” — page 6
