- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charitable entity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The charitable company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.”
Significant events
- “At the year end, Church Extension Association (Incorporated) acted as a guarantor of the rent on two properties.”
- “When a Sister makes her Life Profession in the Community she renounces her right to all income and assets to which she becomes entitled.”
- “The total amount of capital brought into the Community or inherited by Sisters whilst a member of the Community, and therefore repayable in the event that a Sister leaves, is £944,055.”
- “The Sisters plan to continue with their established ministries whilst being open to the possibilities of new callings.”
- “They continue to seek ways to make a smaller impact on the environment.”
- “They plan to continue seeking financial support for the ministry with women and children who came to this country as asylum seekers, and displaced persons.”

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
