Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity held unrestricted reserves of £74,380 at the end of the financial year. The trustees report that the year was difficult due to inflationary impacts and rising living costs, noting that cash will become restricted in the near future. However, forecasts indicate a net cash inflow for the next 12 months, and the trustees believe there is no significant doubt regarding the charity's ability to satisfy future performance obligations.
