Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity maintained a stable financial position despite a modest deficit of £915 for the year ended 31 December 2025. Unrestricted reserves stood at £9,301, which the Trustees consider appropriate given the current operating model, though this is below their longer-term aspiration of three months of core operating expenditure. The charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.
