Each year we publish a trustees' annual report and accounts, containing our financial records and a review of our activities during the financial year. As of 2022/23, we've published a separate impact report, to give a snapshot of our year with headline figures and a service and fundraising update.
We've also worked with the University of Bath, University of Exeter and King's College London to conduct research projects investigating the impact of our services and identifying gaps and barriers to access.
