Financial health, per its FY2023 accounts

The accounts state that the charity held total unrestricted funds of £2,285,474 as of 5 April 2023, a decrease from the previous year's £2,336,328. The trustees consider this level of retained reserve to be appropriate with regard to the charity's objectives, noting that the trust is reliant upon investment income to fund its activities. The group reported a net loss of £40,397 for the year, driven by unrealised losses on investments, although the trustees maintain that risks are effectively mitigated through portfolio diversity.
