Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity's unrestricted general fund is in a precarious position, with working capital of only £15,490, which is less than six weeks of normal expenditure. The trustees report that day-to-day running costs exceeded income by £986 in 2025, and the charity was unable to pay its full parish share, though a reduction in the 2026 share provides some financial breathing space.
