Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a net deficit of £66,441 for the year ended 31 December 2024, resulting in a decrease in total net assets from £979,676 to £913,235. The trustees confirm that free reserves of £868 are below the stated policy target of nine months' unrestricted expenditure, noting that this level is insufficient to cover the target resilience level. Despite the deficit and low reserves, the trustees are satisfied that the charity is a going concern with no material uncertainties regarding its ability to continue operations for at least the next 12 months.
