Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The charity reported a net expenditure of £178,798 for the 13-month period, resulting in a decline in free reserves to £234,219, which is below the assessed policy requirement of £330,000. Due to this declining financial position and the likelihood of further deficits, the trustees determined that merging with Weston Park Cancer Charity was the most responsible course of action. The accounts are prepared on a going concern basis, but the charity is intended to close by the end of 2025 following the completion of the operational transfer.
