Financial health, per FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the church reported an overall surplus of £3,940 for the year ended 31 December 2024, with total unrestricted reserves of £116,358. However, the Trustees note that the operating deficit in the General Fund cannot continue indefinitely and that regular giving has declined significantly from pre-2016 levels, requiring a substantial stewardship push in 2025 to address the underlying financial sustainability.
