Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the Trust's total assets decreased from £1,142,163 to £1,068,314 due to an unrealised investment loss of £46,173, resulting in a net movement in funds of negative £73,849. Despite this reduction in capital value, the Trust maintains unrestricted reserves of £1,068,314, which significantly exceed its stated reserves policy target of one year’s administrative and professional expenses. The Trustees confirm that long-term objectives remain obtainable and resources are adequate to meet ongoing obligations.
