Financial health, per its FY2026 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a net deficit of £5,368 for the year ended 31 March 2026, attributed to predicted refurbishment and replacement costs. Despite this overspend, the charity held unrestricted reserves of £62,000, which the trustees consider prudent given their policy to maintain reserves equivalent to approximately 18 months of normal operating expenditure.
