Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that SGYH reported a small surplus of £293 for the year ended 31 March 2025, with total funds increasing to £310,591. The trustees note that the charity is currently dependent on contracts with South Gloucestershire Council and Places for People to sustain its activities, as earned income alone would not allow it to continue operating. Despite this dependency, the trustees have confirmed that resources are adequate and there is no material uncertainty regarding the going concern basis.
