The accounts state that the charity ended the year with a deficit of £62,402, primarily due to outsourcing costs, increased travel expenses, and sponsorship challenges. However, the trustees report that free reserves of £125,601 are sufficient to cover three to six months of operating costs and manage a solvent wind-down if necessary. The auditors confirmed that the financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis with no material uncertainties identified.
