Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts

The accounts state that the charity ended the year with total equity of £30,155, comprising unrestricted funds of £12,632 and designated funds of £17,040. The trustees note that expenditure increased significantly due to new staff, but the charity remains in a strong position with sufficient reserves to meet its policy target of three months' salaries and regular costs. The primary risk identified is the reliance on donations, requiring continual efforts to secure new donors to ensure financial viability.
