Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a net deficit of £3,123 for the year, primarily due to releasing restricted funds for vehicle restoration, while unrestricted reserves increased modestly to £9,413. The trustees note that the financial position is modest and the charity remains exposed to potential lack of freewill donations due to the absence of grant funding. They acknowledge challenges in volunteer recruitment and funding opportunities but consider the overall position to be reasonable.
