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 charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the original financial statements were authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “Chiltern gained planning permission from Reading Borough Council Planning Dept. for the change of use of the existing building 18 to 1 x residential dwelling, creation of new access to Peppard Road with new railings and gates. This building is currently going to be auctioned to secure a sale as soon as possible. The capital gained from this sale will be used to further develop our outdoor area following the 'Forest' theme with the possibility of opening areas up to the local community. Chiltern also has plans to build a purpose-built kitchen for the catering of all meals for the children and continues to hold a '5 star' food rating.”
• “Over this last year to maintain the sustainability of the nursery building new windows have replaced the old metal crittall windows along with the replacement of wooden fire exit doors to UPVC doors. A flat roof which formed part of a fire escape has been completely replaced. All exposed asbestos soffits have now been covered, and the back of the building has been externally painted. An internal maintenance and decoration program is ongoing.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
