FY2025

Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a loss of £3,310 for the year, primarily due to reduced fundraising income from a summer festival and fireworks night, alongside a 100% increase in energy costs. Financial health is further impacted by a continuing setback from severe flooding damage to the main hall in December 2023, which rendered the venue unusable for most activities and necessitated alternative hall hire costs. While an insurance claim is ongoing to recover these costs, the group has no outstanding loans and maintains cash funds of £26,780 at year-end.
