- Affirmed
“As at 31 December 2024, the Company has net assets of £12,313,245 and made a profit pre-tax for the year of £392,073. The Company also has healthy cash reserves. Based on these assessments and having regard to the resources available to the entity, the Directors have concluded that there is no material uncertainty and that they can continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and accounts.”
Significant events
- “During the financial year, the Company incurred significant losses on disposal related to the demolition of its Bedford Road building. This demolition was undertaken as part of the Director's strategic decision to redevelop the site. The demolition represents a non-recurring event and is not part of the Company's normal operating activities, thereby constituting an Exceptional cost.”

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
