Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts
The accounts state that the Society reported a surplus of £4,358 for the year ended 31 December 2024, with total unrestricted reserves increasing to £120,275. The trustees note that escalating event costs and depressed investment returns create financial uncertainty, requiring careful monitoring to ensure reserves do not decline too rapidly. Despite these pressures, cash balances were sufficient to meet normal expenditure for at least three months.
