“Having reviewed the financial position and future plans for the charity, the Trustees have identified no material uncertainties related to events or conditions that cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue its activities for the foreseeable future. In light of the disruption due to uncertainty in funding levels, CAFOD has undertaken a range of measures to ensure financial sustainability.”
Significant events
- “Thanks to generous but unexpected legacies, we have ended this year with a surplus which will help us manage the changes we are making over the next two years in a way that will limit the impact on partners and communities around the world.”
- “After ending last year with a deficit, we introduced cost saving measures to ensure we remained sustainable.”
- “The Trustees restructured the composition of the stabilisation fund this year, removing the prior assumption that borrowing could be secured against Romero House.”
- “In Our Common Home we recommitted to a 50 per cent reduction in CAFOD's carbon footprint by 2030 compared with 2019/20 levels and set a new commitment to invest in environmental regeneration to tackle residual emissions.”
- “With a solid recovery from last year's deficit, strengthened reserves, and improved funding diversity, we are entering 2025/26 in a more secure position.”
