Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that total assets increased to £25,882, a rise driven by a £10,000 restricted donation, while unrestricted cash reserves remained stable at £15,865 prior to this gift. The trustees note that current performance costs are not sustainable in the long run without such donations, leading to a recommendation to raise annual subscriptions. The independent examiner confirmed that accounting records were kept and the accounts accord with those records.
