Financial health, per its FY2026 accounts

The charity reported a deficit of £39,547 for the year ended 30 June 2026, driven by income lower than anticipated and significant cost increases including higher rent and legal fees. Despite the deficit, unrestricted reserves stood at £76,927, representing nearly four months of expenditure, which the trustees consider stable and within their policy target of 3-6 months. The accounts were subject to an independent examination rather than an audit, with the examiner reporting no matters requiring attention.
