Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity's unrestricted funds decreased from £4,528,627 to £4,494,312 during the year, resulting in a net expenditure of £72,229. This decline was primarily driven by a £59,000 unrealized loss on investment property and a £68,120 realized loss on fixed asset investments, which outweighed the £81,064 in investment income. Despite the net expenditure, the charity maintains significant net assets of £4,494,312, largely comprised of investment property valued at £3,105,000.
