Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts

The accounts state that unrestricted funds decreased from £5,000,586 to £4,213,852 due to a net loss on investment revaluations of £808,186, which outweighed investment income and grants made. The trustees consider the current level of free reserves sufficient to meet ongoing charitable donations and management costs, and they have adopted the going concern basis.
