Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that unrestricted reserves stood at £250,028, which exceeds the trustees' stated policy target of covering six months of expenditure (£87,096). However, the trustees explicitly consider the overall financial position to be unsatisfactory and note that building up free reserves to the desired level is expected to remain difficult in the short term due to current funding levels.
