Financial health, per FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that unrestricted reserves stood at £1,076,324, with the Board of Trustees considering the current level of reserves to be sufficient given the lack of recurring annual expenditure. The charity reported a net decrease in unrestricted funds of £9,489 for the year, funded by investment income of £174,265 against total expenditure of £183,754. The trustees identified variability of investment returns as the major financial risk, which is mitigated by retaining expert investment managers and maintaining a diversified portfolio.
