Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a net deficit of £1,385.78 for the year, driven by a 7.6% decline in offerings, though this was partially offset by increased income from premises hires. The trustees note that while cash balances provide a buffer, falling membership is impacting income, leading to a reduction in the minister's stipend to ensure expenses remain covered.
