Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported an overall operating deficit of £30,257.12 for the year ended 31 December 2024, with total payments exceeding total receipts. The trustees note that while reserves remain healthy, the Ministry Area falls short of the required average weekly contribution of over £20 per person to be financially viable, citing urgent maintenance costs for ancient buildings as a key pressure.
