Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that unrestricted reserves stood at £3,100,018, a significant decrease from the previous year's £4,678,952, driven by a net movement in funds of approximately £1.58 million. Per the trustees' report, this decline is attributed to substantial charitable expenditure and revaluation losses, though the charity maintains a comfortable level of reserves well above its stated policy target of £50,000 to £100,000. The trustees confirm the charity has secured sufficient income for the next twelve months and face no material uncertainties regarding its ability to continue as a going concern.
