“The Trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

Significant events

- “The Board accepted the CEO's advice that we engage in a Governance Review conducted by the Professional Associations Research Network.”
- “The IPA Board's decision in July 2024 to allow as "normal variations" up to 50% teleanalysis for training analysis and a candidate's first case and up to 75% for a second case was of significant concern.”
- “We began to rent our own premises in Leeds in 2024. Our conference in Edinburgh attracted over 200 delegates and we plan to make this a biennial event.”
- “A major event for our Society and indeed psychoanalytic scholarship was the launch of the Revised Standard Edition of the complete works of Sigmund Freud.”
- “In November of 2024 we had a very successful further edition of the Psychoanalytic Film Festival.”
- “We received a glowing accreditation report from the British Psychoanalytic Council following their visit on 8th June.”

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
