- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The trustees have concluded that, in line with the reserves policy and cash liquidity requirements of the charity, there is a reasonable expectation that the charitable company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The charitable company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Ahead of the 2024 UK General Election, we called on all political parties to reimagine our rigged political and economic systems.”
- “the UK has now left the Energy Charter Treaty, which allowed fossil fuel corporations to sue governments over perceived loss in future profits due to climate-protecting policies.”
- “In 2024, War on Want's new 'Make Polluters Pay' campaign demanded Global North countries and corporations pay up for the damage they've caused.”
- “our new 'Tax the Super-Rich' campaign is pressuring the government to introduce fairer taxation on individuals with extreme wealth over £10 million.”
- “War on Want's solidarity with the Palestinian people stood firm in 2024. We called out Israel's military attacks on the Gaza Strip as a genocide against the Palestinian people.”
- “The Sri Lankan economic crisis of 2019-2024 - the worst since the country's independence in 1948 - was devastating for low paid workers.”
- “When workers at the Sumithra Halaska Factory in Colombo, which supplies UK brands like Asda and Superdry, faced similar treatment they exercised their right to unionise and right to strike for fairer pay, better working conditions, and job security.”
- “In August 2024, War on Want provided emergency support following devastating floods in Bangladesh.”
- “In Morocco, we continued our partnership work with the Syndicat Démocratique de l'Agriculture (SDA) Union - Democratic Union of Agriculture - to strengthen workers' rights and improve livelihoods in the export-driven food industry.”
- “Launched in 2024/25, the Azadi Fund for a Just, Equitable, and Ecological Transition (or 'Azadi' for short) works to realise a world where everyone, everywhere, can live with dignity and in harmony with the planet.”
- “In January 2024, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) found it 'plausible' that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.”
- “Israel's atrocities in Gaza prompted the International Criminal Court (ICC) to issue arrest warrants for Israel's Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and its then Defence Minister, Yoav Gallant, for war crimes and crimes against humanity.”
- “In 2024, the UK government cancelled 30 arms licences to UK companies supplying weapons and military technology to Israel.”
