Despite the UK grappling with a cost-of-living crisis and inflation sitting at 4% in January 2024, almost half of the charities surveyed have a positive financial outlook. However, pressures still remain on income streams and, whether it’s wages, energy, insurance or rent, charities are facing huge challenges when it comes to rising costs.
