The accounts state that the charity reported a financial deficit of £10,000 for the year, driven by expenditure exceeding budget by £37,000 due to significant capital works and increased operational costs. Despite this deficit, the charity holds unrestricted reserves of £219,579, which significantly exceed its stated policy target of £50,000. The trustees note that while income from lettings increased, they anticipate pressure on household budgets affecting future giving.
