Financial health, per its FY2023 accounts

The accounts state that the charity recorded a trading loss of £12,457 for the year ended 31 December 2023, following a loss in the previous year, which the Treasurer describes as unsustainable in the medium term. Unrestricted reserves decreased to £85,809, representing approximately eight months of unrestricted expenditure, which the report characterizes as a worrying trend. The charity relies heavily on regular giving, which declined, while the Diocesan Parish Share remains its heaviest financial burden.
