Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity holds free unrestricted reserves of £209,578, which the Trustees consider sufficient to cover cash-flow fluctuations and unplanned expenditure. Per the trustees' report, the charity's total net assets decreased slightly to £5,751,732 due to an unrealised loss on investments, but the going concern basis remains appropriate with no material uncertainties identified.

Automated summary of the FY2025 accounts; the evidenced findings below carry the verbatim passages.

What the accounts disclose

Reserves policy: high enough, but no higher than is needed, to fund the grants and cover the fluctuations in cash-flow during the year (held: £210k)
“The Trust's policy is to hold free reserves, high enough, but no higher than is needed, to fund the grants and cover the fluctuations in cash-flow during the year. The free reserves are those unrestricted funds not designated for specific purposes or otherwise committed.”
Per its FY2025 accounts as filed with the Charity Commission.
Related-party transaction: Pellipar Services Limited is the administrator. The document does not explicitly state the amount paid to Pellipar as a related party transaction in Note 15. It lists 'Management fees' of £52,494 in Note 4. Without explicit linkage in the related party note, I cannot confirm this is a disclosed related party transaction per strict rules. However, often administrators are related parties. But Rule 1 says NEVER guess. I will only include what is explicitly in Note 15 or clearly linked. Note 15 only mentions trustee donations. I will provide the trustee donation entry.
“During the year a total of £nil was received from Trustees as donations (2024: nil).” — page 16
