The accounts state that unrestricted reserves amounted to £8,125,956 after excluding the operational property value, which the trustees consider sufficient to produce income commensurate with annual running costs. The charity reported a net income of £2,623 for the year, significantly lower than the preceding year's £322,131, largely due to reduced investment gains. The trustees confirmed there are no uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
