Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity generated a net surplus of £73,099 for the year ended 31 December 2025, with total income of £935,044 and total expenditure of £861,945. The trustees report that free reserves of £1,636,402 are held, which aligns with their stated policy target of between £1,200,000 and £1,700,000. While the charity remains financially viable with adequate resources for the foreseeable future, the trustees note that the cost of raising funds has increased relative to donation income due to inflation and decreased donations.
