FY2025

Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity generated a small surplus of £1,327 for the year, driven by early receipt of magazine subscriptions and increased planned giving. However, the charity faced significant financial pressure from the Church House Inn, which resulted in a rental loss and prevented the PCC from meeting its full Diocesan Common Fund contribution, creating a shortfall of £19,013. Despite these challenges, the charity maintains unrestricted funds of £19,783 and has a stated reserves policy target of £60,000.
