Financial health, per FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a consolidated surplus of £0.1m for the year ended 31 December 2025, following a deficit in the previous year. The Trustees note that unrestricted funds amounted to £3.7m, with approximately £0.6m in cash readily available, which equates to around four months of normal expenditure. While the charity aims to hold twelve months of expenditure in free reserves, it acknowledges significant uncertainty regarding the introduction of visitor charging and the potential impact on footfall.
