Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity did not have a formally adopted financial reserves policy as of the end of the reporting period, noting that developing such a policy is an area for further governance development. The trustees recognize the challenges of maintaining a predictable income stream due to reliance on grants and donations, but the document does not provide specific unrestricted reserve figures or total income/expenditure totals to assess current financial health quantitatively.
