Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity reported a net deficit of £135,827 for the year ended 30 April 2025, resulting in unrestricted reserves falling to a negative £2,250,086. While the trustees consider the going concern basis appropriate, they explicitly note that the charity is entirely dependent on continuing donations to maintain this status. The charity operates a reserve policy target of six months of operational costs, which is not currently met given the negative unrestricted fund balance.
