Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported an unrestricted deficit of £11,732 for the year ended 31 March 2025, resulting in unrestricted reserves of £36,599. The trustees consider these reserves to be prudent given that current grant funding will cease and a challenging fundraising target lies ahead. The trustees concluded that it remains appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis.
