Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts

The accounts for the year ended 31 December 2024 were subject to an independent examination rather than a full audit, as the charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 but it was eligible for examination under the Charities Act 2011. The independent examiner confirmed that no matters came to their attention that would cause them to believe the accounting records were not kept, the accounts did not accord with those records, or that the accounts did not comply with applicable accounting standards. The examiner stated they had no concerns and found no other matters requiring attention to enable a proper understanding of the accounts.
