Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts

The accounts state that the charity faces significant uncertainty regarding its future site due to a potential compulsory purchase by Birmingham City Council. The filing admits to a late return for the 2024 year, attributed to capacity issues stemming from the minister's long-term leave. Despite these challenges, the trustees report that premise lettings and car park income remain stable.
