Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity has operated at a deficit for several years, drawing upon reserves to support its work, with unrestricted expenditure exceeding unrestricted income in the year ended June 2025. To ensure future viability, the charity reduced its staff team significantly and relinquished office accommodation, relying heavily on volunteer contributions and investment withdrawals to cover operating costs. Despite these challenges, the trustees maintain that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future.
