Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity ended the year with a total loss of £2,587.03, which the trustees attribute to a deliberate decision to cover more meeting and competition expenses to repay members after a strong previous year. The charity maintains a reserves policy target of six months of required resources, though it notes this is not strictly necessary due to the absence of building or vehicle running costs.
