Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity recorded a net loss of £11,828 for the year ended 31 July 2025, a significant decline from the previous year's profit. Per the trustees' report, this deficit was driven by employer NICs rises, increased government-funded hours, and lower occupancy, leading to a forecasted surplus of only £10,000 for the following year. The charity maintains unrestricted reserves of £111,330, which the trustees consider sufficient to maintain financial viability despite the challenging financial environment.
