What the accounts disclose

Going concern: noted by the trustees or auditor

“We expect to shortly receive a large bequest, so there is a large income forecast of £281,000. This means our financial position should improve in 2026, however as this is a one-off sum it should ideally be used for one off expenditure. Whilst the bequest should allow us to work on some projects, we still have a significant problem with our basic running costs exceeding our basic income by around £30,000 to £40,000 per annum which urgently needs to be addressed.” — page 17
