Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that unrestricted reserves stood at £1,321,149, which is equivalent to seven months of expenditure. This level is higher than the charity's stated policy target of three to six months of expenditure, although the trustees note that reserves are lower than the previous year's eight months. The trustees consider this position prudent given the reduction in key funding from Birmingham City Council and uncertainty in forecasting income.
