The accounts state that the charity recorded a net reduction in funds of £285k for the year ending March 2025, continuing a pattern of running a deficit as noted by the Chair. However, the trustees report that the financial position has remained stable and that free reserves of £3.633m exceed the risk-based reserves requirement of £3.006m, providing a buffer against projected losses.
