Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity holds £62,794 in net assets, which the trustees describe as covering nine months of running costs, although the trustees' report also notes uncertainty regarding going concern due to having only six months' running costs in the account. The charity aims to maintain at least three months of operating finances in reserve but currently holds zero reserves, relying on the charity shop, room hire, and grant funding for its principal sources of income.
