- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees 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 group's or the charitable company'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.”

- YMCA Retail Limited 100%
Significant events
- “The housing crisis continues to plight the country and communities, disproportionately impacting young people and their potential, and in the months following the General Election, the Government's announcement of increases to National Insurance contributions had a significant financial impact on YMCAs.”
- “The annual accounts report an unrestricted deficit of (£0.1m) and a restricted deficit of (£0.47m).”
- “YMCA England & Wales no longer has any housing stock.”
- “Delivering the 2024-25 budget was challenging given the Retail environment.”
- “The annual accounts report a (£0.56m) deficit for 2024-25 (2024: £3.4m surplus).”
- “The Trustees believe that the system of internal controls has been adequate to provide assurance against material misstatement or loss.”

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
