Material uncertainty over going concern
At the balance sheet date, the reserves of the charity were £475,290 in deficit (2024 - £311,781 in deficit). This is due to the deficit for 2025 being £163,509 (2024 - £70,506) and the charity not being able to pay the wages recharged from Carlisle Diocesan Board of Finance; with these recharges instead being added to an intercompany loan of £400,961 as of 31 December 2025.
