Financial health, per its FY2023 accounts
The accounts state that the charity is meeting all financial commitments, although the Honorary Treasurer notes a deterioration in the financial position due to the loss of central church grants and a fall in giving. The charity is currently living on the proceeds from the sale of a former curate's house, which the Treasurer describes as unsustainable in the long term, and has committed £10,000 of reserves to complete an organ project.
What the accounts disclose
“We are still living on the proceeds of the sale of the former curate’s house to fund our higher level of activity and this is not sustainable in the long term.” — page 13
“We are meeting all financial commitments but need to undertake some work surrounding our investment income, the claiming of Gift Aid and more budgeting and financial planning in the future. We need to keep a close eye on utilities in the hall and the church as we face an increase in our costs.”
