Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a surplus of £7,420 for the year, bringing total unrestricted funds to £19,223. The Treasurer's report notes that essential expenditure exceeds income from subscriptions and ticket sales, but the surplus was achieved due to a one-off appeal for voluntary donations. The trustees confirm there are no material uncertainties regarding the society's ability to continue operating.
