Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity generated a net surplus of £271,569 for the year ended 31 March 2025, resulting in total unrestricted and restricted reserves of £271,565. The trustees consider this reserve amount a good start for the first year of operations, noting that unrestricted reserves remain a priority to build against unforeseen eventualities. The charity's financial position is supported by significant grant and contract income of £911,206, largely derived from deferred income transferred upon its establishment as an independent entity.
