Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity operated at a net deficit of £71,699 for the year, driven by significant restricted restoration spending that exceeded incoming grants. While unrestricted reserves of £43,961 are held, the trustees explicitly note this is significantly below their policy target of 12 to 18 months' anticipated expenditure. The charity reports sufficient funds in unrestricted and legacy funds to bridge the restricted deficit, but acknowledges the need to reverse the dwindling of reserves.
