Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The charity reported a net deficit of £56,723 for the year ended 30 September 2025, resulting in unrestricted funds of £98,540. This figure is significantly below the trustees' stated reserves policy target of three months' operating expenditure, with free reserves (excluding designated housing funds) actually in deficit by £35,861. Despite this shortfall, the trustees maintain a going concern basis, citing adequate resources for the foreseeable future and plans to increase income generation through social enterprise expansion.
