In February 2025 the Trustees decided to close the charity and transfer the remaining funds (after payment of all liabilities) to YMCA England and Wales. These accounts have therefore been prepared on a closure basis.

Significant events
- “YMCA George Williams College ends the 2024-25 financial year with trustees having made the difficult decision to close the charity, with operations predominantly ceasing from 31 March 2025.”
- “Following a redundancy process, the majority of staff left the charity on 31 March 2025, with three remaining to complete outstanding project delivery and (in the case of the Executive Director) oversee the closure of the organisation.”
- “In April 2025, the charity secured a small grant from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) to draw together the most significant outputs of the charity to form a legacy archive. Upon closure, all assets of the charity will fall to YMCA England & Wales as per the charity's governing documents.”
- “The College was obliged to buy out of the YMCA Pension Plan at a total cost of £0.23m which is fully provided in these accounts.”
- “The CEO went on secondment as from May 2024 and an interim Executive Director (Geethika Jayatilaka) was appointed from January 2024, departing December 2024, at which point the former CEO returned from secondment.”
- “During the year, the charity has included redundancy and/or termination costs which totalled £143,773 (2024 - £Nil).”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
