Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a net expenditure of £10,883 for the year, resulting in a decrease in unrestricted reserves from £54,238 to £43,355. The trustees note that the current reserve level is below their stated policy target of two months of operating expenses but consider it satisfactory. Additionally, the trustees have resolved to wind down the charity's operations following a decision to move towards a direct-delivery approach by its international affiliate.
