The accounts state that the charity achieved a surplus of £27,257 for the year, with unrestricted cash reserves of £41,943 at year-end. However, the Treasurer reports that expenditure is rising faster than income and forecasts a potential deficit of approximately £29,000 in 2026, which would reduce reserves to about six to seven weeks of normal expenditure, significantly below the recommended three to six months. The charity also faces challenges including high utility bills, deferred maintenance costs, and outstanding Gift Aid refunds from HMRC.
