THE OMEGA COURSE
We run The Omega Course - a safe and friendly space to talk about Death and Dying, so people develop confidence to think about their own end-of-life issues and to support friends and family to do the same. We free people to plan their bucket list and enjoy the life they have left to live, with the freedom of knowing when illness comes they have a plan. We also offer the course to professionals.
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that unrestricted reserves stood at £6,786, with the trustees noting that unrestricted funds are in a good position and ongoing commitments are covered by restricted grant funds. The charity reported a net surplus for the year, driven by significant grant income from the National Lottery and local councils, while expenditure remained low due to voluntary delivery of services. The independent examiner confirmed that no material matters came to their attention during the examination of the accounts.
