Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts

The accounts state that the charity's unrestricted funds are in a deficit of £58,068, driven by a significant revaluation loss on fixed assets. However, the sole trustee is the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, which meets the charity's net expenditure in full, securing its funding and eliminating the need for independent reserves. The trustees have developed a mitigation plan to reduce the negative balance over the next three to five years through cost savings and increased income generation.
