Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity reported a net expenditure of £12,000 for the year, resulting in a cumulative unrestricted deficit of £812,000. The trustees note that this deficit is due to the structure of the original contract and that the charity is dependent on continuing financial support from its joint venture partners, which is not legally binding. Despite this material uncertainty, the trustees and auditors have adopted the going concern basis, asserting that the charity has adequate resources to continue operations for the foreseeable future.
