Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a deficit of incoming resources over resources expended for the year ended 5 April 2025, primarily due to non-monetary items such as depreciation. Despite this deficit, the trustees confirmed that increased energy costs were not significantly impacting the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. Free reserves at the year end were £90,618, which the trustees noted was above their stated minimum policy target of 12 months' operating costs.
