Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts
The accounts state that the charity closed the year with a small net surplus of £1,260, though the Treasurer noted the organization was 'on the back foot' with tight cash flow requiring significant withdrawals from investment funds. The charity holds unrestricted reserves of £60,611 and designated funds of £32,000, but faces ongoing pressure from rising building costs and a substantial annual Diocesan Parish Share obligation.
What the accounts disclose
“We still closed the year in the black but the difference between our annual receipts and our annual payments was only £1,260 and I had to be very aware at the end of every month of our bank balance and exactly what still needed to be covered.” — page 29
