Activities carried out through trading subsidiary.
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity's activities and assets were transferred to a new entity on 1 April 2025, resulting in the preparation of financial statements on a break-up basis rather than the going concern basis. Per the trustees' report, the charity maintained unrestricted reserves of £2,902,818 at year-end, which were transferred to the new charity to continue its charitable purposes.
