Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that unrestricted funds total £104,927 as of 31 March 2025, representing a net movement of £56,039 from the previous year's £56,039 (calculated from closing balance of £109,069 less incoming £25,949 less outgoing £30,090? No, previous closing was £109,069. Current closing is £104,927. Movement is -4,142? Wait. 2024 Total funds carried forward: 109,069. 2025 Total funds carried forward: 104,927. Net movement in funds 2025: 56,039? This seems inconsistent with the balance sheet. Let's re-read carefully. 2024 Total funds carried forward: 109,069. 2025 Total funds carried forward: 104,927. The Statement of Financial Activities shows Net movement in funds as 56,039 for 2025? No, the table is messy. 2025 Incoming: 25,949. 2025 Expended: 30,090. Net movement should be -4,141. The table says 'Net movement in funds 56,039'. This looks like a typo in the source or my reading. Let's look at the Balance Sheet. 2024 Cash: 109,069. 2025 Cash: 104,927. Difference is -4,142. The 'Net movement' line in the SOFA says 56,039. This is likely an error in the document or refers to something else. However, the narrative should stick to facts. The charity holds £104,927 in unrestricted funds. It raised £25,949 and spent £30,090. The reserves are held in cash.
