Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity reported a deficit of £23,889 for the year, resulting in total reserves falling to £22,072 from £45,961 the previous year. The trustees attribute this worsening financial position to difficulties in obtaining grants, a period of inactivity in fundraising due to staff ill health, and substantial refurbishment costs for a new hub. Despite these challenges, the trustees confirm that resources are adequate to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months.
