Financial health, per FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that total unrestricted funds slightly exceed the designated reserves and the target of approximately six months' expenditure, a position strengthened by legacies received in 2024. The charity reports a net movement in funds of £17,918 for the year, driven by increased income from hall rentals and investment gains, despite a decrease in weekly offerings. The trustees consider the financial position prudent, with reserves maintained to mitigate risks related to income fluctuations and future building costs.
