FY2025

Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a net deficit of £15,121 for the year ended 31 December 2025, primarily due to the non-recurrence of one-off grants received in the prior year and increased expenditure on utilities and maintenance. Per the Treasurer's Report, unrestricted reserves stood at £72,899, which is below the stated policy target of three months of unrestricted expenditure (£65,000 designated for general reserves). The filing notes that reliance on reserves is not a sustainable long-term strategy and that income must grow to meet ongoing commitments.
