The accounts state that the charity reported an operating loss of £20,525.64 for the year ended 31 August 2025, primarily due to administrative costs exceeding turnover. The trustees note that government funding rates are insufficient to cover full operating costs, leading to the introduction of a voluntary sustainability fee to help manage rising expenses. Despite these financial pressures, the trustees confirm the charity remains viable with sufficient funds to cover operating expenses.
