Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Xeinadin Audit, Chartered Accountants and Statutory Auditors
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Council members use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the College's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “In 2022 we extended the residency qualification at the College from communicant Anglicans to Christians of all denominations recognised by Churches Together in England, and we are now welcoming members of different Christian churches as residents.”
- “The Council met for a further Away Day in May 2024, to take stock of the Vision and to consider its future development.”
- “In September 2023 the Council agreed a number of changes to its committee structure and pattern of meetings.”
- “In September 2023, the Council appointed Richard Diggory as Vice-Chairman.”
- “In 2024, in the face of continuing rising pressures on personal finances we saw more potential residents whose financial resources were no longer able to support them.”
- “In 2024 we have launched a number of initiatives to reduce and control consumption, deal with waste and reduce our overall carbon footprint.”
- “Our enterprising Activities Coordinator, David Jack, undertook a sponsored Wing Walk, which raised £12,000 for the College.”
- “Successful fundraising for a significant community project designed to give computer training to elderly residents.”
- “During the year capital spending was £42,000 of which £37,000 was used to upgrade computers and improve our IT systems and infrastructure.”

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
