Financial health, per its FY2023 accounts
The accounts state that the charity's overall financial position is healthy, with sufficient funds to run two church buildings and various services. However, the General Account showed a deficit of approximately £21,000 in 2023, which was met by reserves, and the total expenditure exceeded total income by £6,000 for the year. The trustees note that while the current position is fortunate, the deficit cannot be sustained indefinitely due to rising costs and upcoming major restoration expenditures.
