Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state a net expenditure of £12,301 for the year, resulting in total funds decreasing from £145,649 to £133,348. The trustees note that this deficit is largely due to timing differences in income recognition rather than operational trading losses, which showed a surplus of £7,699. However, the charity faces significant financial pressure regarding the sustainability of Neston Civic Hall, citing frequent roof leaks and the inability to continue subsidizing its running costs without secured grant funding.
