Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a deficit of £30,384 for the year ended 31 March 2025, following a significant deficit in the prior year driven by building revaluations. Per the trustees' report, the charity faces uncertainty regarding rising inflation and costs, and while unrestricted funds stood at £198,045, the trustees noted it is very difficult to establish a reserves policy because future revenues are unknown.
