Promoting better services for adults with Cerebral Palsy
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that total income for the year was £68,395 against total expenditure of £49,719, resulting in a net income of £18,676. The trustees report that unrestricted reserves of £6,155 are below their stated policy target of three to six months of core operating expenditure. However, the charity secured three-year National Lottery funding starting July 2025, which the trustees cite as strengthening the financial position.
