## Structure and staff 

Staff are funded in a small period e.g. Housing Advocate, session workers, Youth coordinator and MH outreach worker for specific and restricted temporary projects. 

Majority of time we function in a volunteer basis. 

## Financial review 

The charity had an income of £235,718 and expenditure of £290,450 leaving a deficit of £54,732 for the financial year 2024/25.  This has decreased the charity’s reserves to -£49,011 at the end of the financial year.  The charity has fully adapted accrual accounting and the changeover had a timing effect on its result. 

The charity has yet to develop a reserves policy as its still new charity with not a lot of long term financial commitments.
