Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity recorded a net deficit of £394,959 for the year, resulting in a decrease in unrestricted reserves to £465,846. The Board notes that these reserves are below their stated minimum target of three months' unrestricted expenditure, with actual reserves equivalent to only five weeks of expenditure. However, the trustees confirm the charity remains a going concern, citing successful post-year-end re-tendering of main Home Care contracts and updated forecasts showing adequate resources to continue operations.
