Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity incurred a substantial deficit of £31,192, reducing unrestricted reserves from £64,084 to £32,892. The trustees attribute this to cuts in educational grants and funding, noting that major expenditure reductions were implemented to forecast a breakeven situation for the following year. The committee's reserves policy aims to build three years of operating income, but current reserves are below this target.
