Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported negative unrestricted reserves of £91,194 at the end of the financial year, a significant improvement from the negative £195,748 in the prior year. This deficit arises from liabilities owed to its affiliated entity, Global Impact US, which has pledged not to request payment until the charity has sufficient funds. The auditor confirmed that the use of the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate and identified no material uncertainties regarding the charity's ability to continue operations.
