Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a net surplus of £1,149,235 for the year ended 31 March 2025, driven largely by an extraordinary item of £1,019,698 from the acquisition of Riccall Regen 2000. Per the trustees' report, free unrestricted reserves were £269,533, which the trustees consider prudent as it exceeds their policy target of three months' expenditure, though they note increasing pressure on government funding.
