Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity ended the year with a net surplus of £625, marking the first time since before the pandemic that the group did not end with a loss. Free reserves stood at approximately £3,590, which the trustees note is below their stated policy target of holding funds equivalent to 12 months of running costs. The charity holds all funds in cash due to a risk-averse strategy, as it does not have sufficient funds for longer-term investments.
