What the accounts disclose

Largest income source: Rental Income

Per its FY2025 accounts as filed with the Charity Commission.

Reserves position: below the charity's own stated reserves policy (held: £702k; policy: sufficient resources to enable costs to be covered in a period where income falls whilst another user is found)

“The additional unforeseen costs in undertaking this work have had to be funded from reserves. In addition, the contractor for the works has submitted an invoice for costs above the quoted value. The Trustees are still awaiting an explanation of this increased cost, which will also certainly necessitate the Trust having to borrow in order to meet the payments due.” — page 5
