FY2025

Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity's free reserves decreased from £49,084 to £33,695 during the period, as outgoings exceeded fundraising income due to significant one-off projects. Despite this reduction, the trustees report that routine outgoings remain well covered and the reserves position is very strong, with no material uncertainties regarding the charity's ability to continue operating. The charity relies heavily on parent volunteers and fundraising activities to fund educational enhancements not provided by the Local Education Authority.
