- “This year has been one of our most challenging for years. In common with many other charities, a lull in post-Covid giving has coincided with a greater global uncertainty that grew through the year.”
- “At the end of the year, the trustees regretfully decided there was a need to reduce costs and consequently the staff team, and we now look to the future hoping to rebuild our reserves to a more comfortable level.”
- “We have taken the decision to pause our grant making activity for the first quarter of the financial year to allow time to explore and implement these changes.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
