Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that unrestricted net assets were £70,137 at year-end, which is above the trustees' stated policy target of approximately £62,000 (three months of unrestricted fixed payments). However, the filing notes a projected deficit of approximately £22,000 for 2026 and highlights significant future capital risks, specifically a church roof replacement estimated at £1m that relies on successful grant funding.
