Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity reported a deficit of £4,058.70 for the year ended 31 March 2025, primarily due to £13,000 spent on interior refurbishment. Per the trustees' report, unrestricted reserves of £44,379.56 are considered sufficient to meet scheduled and unscheduled capital expenditure and accommodate unexpected falls in income. The trustees note that the building is 67 years old and that unexpected maintenance problems are increasingly likely, requiring future capital provision.
