Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that free reserves are nil, which is significantly below the trustees' stated target of three months' operating costs (£60,000). The trustees acknowledge that nil reserve funds place the organisation at risk of insolvency or closure. However, the independent examiner confirmed that no matters came to their attention giving cause to believe the accounts were not prepared in accordance with applicable standards.
