Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts for the year ended 31st March 2025 have been subject to an independent examination rather than a full audit, as the charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 but it was eligible for this simpler process. The independent examiner confirmed that no material matters came to their attention regarding the keeping of accounting records, the accuracy of the accounts against those records, or compliance with relevant accounting standards and the Statement of Recommended Practice. The examiner stated they had no concerns requiring attention to enable a proper understanding of the accounts.
