Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity operated at a deficit of £57,342 for the year, eroding its unrestricted reserves from £463,521 to £406,179. The trustees acknowledge that reserves will continue to be eroded unless spending is reduced or alternative income is generated, though they currently consider the reserves adequate to meet the policy target of one year's running costs. The financial review notes that the charity remains in a position to continue its operations but faces ongoing pressure from falling membership income and reduced training uptake.

Going concern: noted by the trustees or auditor
The deficit was offset by our healthy opening reserves of £463,521, and although the board take the view that these reserves are there to support the organisation when it is in such a situation, we are conscious that these will continue to be eroded unless we are able to reduce our spend and can generate alternative income. — page 4
