Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the trustees believe the going concern basis is not appropriate as the charity has no realistic alternative but to cease trading. Despite this, the unrestricted funds increased from £424,785 to £547,180 during the year, supported by net income of £122,395. The charity maintains a reserves policy target of three to six months' expenditure, which the trustees confirm has been maintained throughout the year.
