Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The charity reported a net movement in funds of £(27,642) for the year ended 31 August 2025, reducing its total unrestricted funds from £119,162 to £91,520. The trustees' reserves policy aims to retain funds equivalent to six months of expenditure, but the current unrestricted reserves of £91,520 appear insufficient to meet this target given total resources expended of £524,335 (approx. £262,168 per six-month period). The accounts were prepared on a going concern basis with no material uncertainties identified.
