Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity had total income of £44,100 and total expenditure of £45,656 for the year ended 31 March 2025, resulting in a net expenditure. The charity relies on a support grant from Methwold Parish Council, which was £12,000 in the current year and is increasing to £16,000 for the next period, to cover running costs as hire income alone has not yet been sufficient to cover all costs. The trustees consider there are no material uncertainties regarding the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
