Going concern

Affirmed

“The Board recognises the risk of financial viability, and this is reflected in the actions taken by the Board. To ensure the Charity is a going concern the Board in September 2021 approved the SDBE of the Future strategy to seek to ensure achievement of key objectives and move to an underlying recurrent operational surplus by 2027 (now planned for 2028). ... After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”

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
