- Affirmed
“The key risk to financial sustainability continues to be the challenging fundraising environment. As a result of an exceptional donation from The Queen's Trust in March 2019, the Charity still holds sufficient reserves to continue as a network-focused organisation.”
Significant events
- “Looking ahead, our 2025–26 fundraising strategy will focus on securing dedicated support for two cornerstone initiatives: the 100 Young Leaders Awards, commemorating what would have been Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's 100th birthday, and the expansion of our microgrants programme for QECT Young Leaders.”
- “In April 2026, in honour of what would have been Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's 100th birthday, QECT will launch a special Commonwealth-wide recognition campaign.”

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
