Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that unrestricted reserves increased slightly to £69,733, which the trustees consider comfortable against a policy target of one year's overheads (£37,000). However, the charity relies on securing adequate external funding on a project-by-project basis, and the trustees note that the short-term nature of this funding requires the financial position to be kept under constant review.
What the accounts disclose
“It is the policy of the Board to retain sufficient free reserves in readily realisable assets to cover one full year of normal overhead expenditure which we estimate to be in the region of £37,000.” — page 6
“To ensure its survival Actiontrack has to rely upon securing adequate external funding on a project by project basis. At the time of this report the Company has been successful in obtaining sufficient funds to ensure its continuance for at least the next 12 months. The Trustees therefore consider it appropriate to prepare these accounts on a going concern basis. However the relatively short term nature of project funding requires the financial position to be kept under constant review and this the Trustees have done and will continue to do so.” — page 11
