Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity has unrestricted reserves of £97,767, which exceeds the trustee-agreed target of £34,000 needed to sustain operations for six months. However, the trustees note that the loss of studio income places charitable activities at risk until new, sustainable income sources are secured, and the charity is dependent on £68,000 to sustain normal activities for a further year if existing sources are not secured.
