Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity experienced a considerable overspend against income for the year, primarily due to a £19,000 overcharge from a fuel provider that was refunded in the current period. Despite strong giving, monthly expenditure has consistently exceeded income due to rising utility, insurance, and maintenance costs. The charity holds £15,000 in reserves specifically to provide for potential staff redundancy.
