Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a net outgoing resource of £4,771 for the year ended 31 March 2025, resulting in a decrease in total funds from £118,064 to £113,293. This deficit was attributed to the non-repetition of large one-off donations from the previous year and lower uptake of minibus activities, partially offset by reduced staff costs. The trustees maintain a reserves policy to hold sufficient funds for twelve months of operation, with unrestricted reserves currently standing at £110,524.
