Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity reported a net deficit of £56,895 for the year ended 31 March 2025, following a surplus in the prior year, due to the closure of two leisure centres and lower revenue. Despite this, the charity maintained unrestricted reserves of £5.36 million, which exceeds its stated policy target of £3.7 million, and the auditors confirmed the appropriateness of the going concern basis despite noted economic and contractual uncertainties.
