Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity held total unrestricted reserves of £49,765,189, with an adverse free reserve position in the General Fund of £132,383 after deducting tangible fixed assets. The Trustees consider it prudent to retain a reserve of up to twice total annual expenditure, noting that current general fund reserves are below this policy target. Despite a deficit on operating activities, the net movement in funds was positive due to investment gains, and the auditors confirmed no material uncertainties regarding going concern.
