Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity's principal sources of funds are personal donations and fundraising events. Per the trustees' report, the charity holds at least £20,000 in reserve, though it has no formal reserves policy. The independent examiner noted a prior error where cash funds were overstated due to double-counting a matured bond, which has since been restated.
