The accounts state that the charity reported a deficit of £2,304 for the year ended March 2025, a significant improvement from the £35,033 deficit in the previous year. Per the trustees' report, this result was primarily due to reduced expenditure on headquarters repairs and maintenance, which cost £42,089 in the prior year compared to just under £9,000 in the current period. The charity holds unrestricted net assets of £115,236, providing a substantial buffer against its operational losses.
