Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity generated a net income of £70,590 for the year ended 30 September 2025, with unrestricted free reserves of £305,157. Per the trustees' report, these reserves exceed the stated policy target of six to nine months' expenditure (£163,000 to £244,500), though the trustees anticipate reserves will return within policy limits within 12 months due to forecasted spending. The charity relies heavily on grant funding, particularly from Leeds City Council, and notes ongoing uncertainty regarding long-term funding sustainability.
