Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a net income surplus of £28,352.66 for the year ended 31 March 2025, resulting in total unrestricted and restricted reserves of £68,269.66. The trustees note that while reserves were adequate, they were placed in a less favorable position than desired due to income losses and restructuring costs, though the charity remains a going concern.
