Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The charity is in the process of spending down its endowment to wind down operations by 2028, resulting in a significant decrease in unrestricted funds from £8.15 million to £4.74 million. Despite this reduction, the charity maintains a cash position that trustees consider appropriate given market uncertainties, and the auditor confirmed no material uncertainties regarding its ability to continue as a going concern during the wind-down period.
