The accounts state that unrestricted reserves of £140,607 are held against a policy target of six months' expenditure, which the trustees consider sufficient. However, the charity reported a net loss for the year, noting that congregational giving does not cover all day-to-day running costs, a deficit met by existing reserves. The filing confirms the charity is a going concern with no material uncertainties identified by the independent examiner.
