Per its FY2025 accounts as filed with the Charity Commission.
Related-party transaction: Directors are unpaid; expenses reimbursed.
“The directors of the company are also trustees and governors. They are unpaid and thus have been excluded from the average number of employees. Expenses of £556 were reimbursed to directors (2024: £180). There is a block policy for professional indemnity insurance in respect of all employees, including the trustees. As the cost of the policy is based on the payroll amount and the trustees are unpaid, no amount has been allocated to the trustees.” — page 16
