Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that unrestricted funds stood at £29,747 against a policy target of £12,000, with the Committee holding the surplus to cover anticipated repair costs for floors and the car park. The charity reported a profit of £4,576 for the year, driven by increased bookings and magazine advertising income, despite significant one-off expenditure on solar panels. The trustees confirmed a reasonable expectation of continuing as a going concern based on current cash balances and future demand.
