Financial health, per its FY2026 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a deficit for the year of £2,388.62, primarily due to a large unexpected heating-related expense. Per the trustees' report, the charity's reserves policy is to maintain reserves at least equivalent to six months of operational expenditure, but the carried forward balance of £17,477.57 is below this target given the recent deficit and income levels.
