Education and training for children and young people by providing buildings and facilities, providing services, making grants to individuals and by acting as an umbrella body.
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity reported a small operating surplus of £14,714 for the year ended 31 August 2025, following a deficit in the previous year. However, the trustees highlight a material uncertainty regarding the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, citing expected future deficits due to VAT on fees, loss of business rates relief, and reduced pupil numbers. To mitigate these risks, the charity has secured a significant 10-year loan from a supporter and maintains close communication with its bankers regarding its overdraft facility.
