Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a surplus of £235,611 for the year ended 30 June 2025, resulting in total unrestricted reserves of £248,094. The trustees note that the reserve remains high because the charity was re-established during the year and required time to set up governance and identify grant recipients.
