Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The charity reported a net deficit of £275,979 for the year ended 31 December 2025, a significant deterioration from the previous year's deficit of £256,052. Total income fell sharply to £738,744 from £1,805,466, primarily due to the absence of large legacies received in the prior year. Despite the deficit, the charity maintains unrestricted reserves of £174,149 and the trustees consider it a going concern with adequate resources for the foreseeable future.
