- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“There are no material uncertainties about the Trust's ability to continue as a going concern. A strong balance sheet position and consistent income base contribute to this conclusion.”
Significant events
- “Following the year-end, the charity received confirmation of an intended donation of assets valued at approximately £5.7 million from charities based in Scotland. As the donation was not legally binding at the balance sheet date, it is treated as a non-adjusting post balance sheet event.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
