Significant events
- “Grants awarded totalled £388,925 (2024: £381,812). Our Raise and Give (RAG) fundraising team of volunteers continued to raise funds during the year... A total of £238,548 (2024: £164,743) was raised by RAG. We ran over 300 events during the year and sold 47,746 tickets through our box office, a significant increase over the previous year. We launched our new 2025 - 28 Strategy during the year. Unforeseen increases to employment costs following the UK Government changes to National Insurance during the year, plus generally higher inflationary costs, continue to make for a financially challenging environment to operate it.”

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
