Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that total income decreased to £264,506 from £369,498 in the prior year, primarily due to the completion of church reordering works which reduced grant income. Despite a significant drop in expenses to £243,500, the parish reported an excess of income over expenditure of £21,000, though it fell short of the required Parish Share payment to the Diocese.
