The accounts state that the charity reported a deficit of £5,842 in its unrestricted fund for the year, largely due to timing differences in expenditure on repairs before grant funding was received. However, total funds increased to £209,339 at the end of 2025, supported by investment gains and the ability to pay the full Parish Share of £51,554. The PCC maintains unrestricted reserves of £67,157, which it notes represents well over six months' expenditure.
