Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the group had net liabilities of £1,018 and unrestricted funds were in deficit at the year end. The independent examiner identified a material uncertainty regarding the charity's ability to continue as a going concern due to recurring operating losses and constrained cash resources. However, the trustees concluded that going concern remains appropriate based on post-year-end loan repayment and property restructuring arrangements.
