Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity's unrestricted funds were in deficit by £44,743 at the year end, creating a material uncertainty regarding its ability to continue as a going concern. However, the trustees consider it appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis, supported by a confirmed post-year-end unrestricted donation of £100,000 and potential releases of restricted funds. The charity's total net assets are £223,432, but only a limited proportion is available for general operations due to restrictions on specific funds.
