Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity's financial position is precarious due to limited growth in unrestricted income and increasing expenditure, with general reserves decreasing from £42,320 to £31,945. While total parish funds increased to £1,668,009, this is largely due to restricted funds held in investments, whereas the free reserves available for running costs are declining. The trustees acknowledge that action may need to be taken to significantly reduce expenditure as raising income may be insufficient.
