Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity operated at a total surplus of £170,960 for 2025, driven primarily by the sale of The Vergers House property. However, the underlying operational performance was a deficit of £22,053, with unrestricted funds falling to £70,250 (excluding the sale proceeds). The trustees note that this operational deficit is unsustainable and forecast a continuing deficit for 2026.
