Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a surplus of £21,522 for the year, bringing total unrestricted funds to £44,191. However, the trustees note that £49,000 of these funds are restricted by grant conditions for future years, resulting in effectively negative free reserves. The charity relies on financial support from its parent charity, Church Army, to continue as a going concern while it seeks sustainable funding.
