Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity generated a net income of £2,027,575 and held unrestricted funds of £13,600,528 at the year end. However, the independent auditors issued a disclaimer of opinion due to significant governance failings, lack of internal controls, and material unauthorized payments to related parties, which prevented them from obtaining sufficient evidence to form an opinion on the financial statements. The trustees also reported an inability to appoint independent trustees while awaiting the outcome of a Charity Commission review.
