Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts

The accounts state that the parish paid its diocesan share in full without drawing down bond monies, supported by generous giving and staff efficiency. However, the financial position is complicated by historical reporting errors, resulting in a reported unrestricted deficit of £26,158 and a restricted surplus of £29,841. The trustees are working with the Diocesan Board of Finance to correct these figures for a more accurate financial picture.
