STREETLIGHT PROJECT
StreetLight is an indoor Skate park and cafe. We run activities and events on the park, like girl skate nights, who let the dads out, kids' parties and many more events. We also run in the cafe young peoples' evenings, bible studies and lots of one off events. Through everything we do we aim to reach those who have not heard of Jesus and introduce them to him.
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that unrestricted reserves were £16,063, which is below the trustees' stated policy target of £20,000 or over. The trustees attribute this deficit to a short period of reduced income due to staff changes but note that the deficit was rectified after year-end through the receipt of two significant grants.
What the accounts disclose
“At year end, reserves were below the level set by the trustees due to changes in staff adversely affecting cafe and park income for a short period of time.”
