- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The Trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.”

Significant events
- “A highlight of this year was the success of our turtle dove appeal, allowing us to extend our Middleton Down reserve through the acquisition of Poor Patch and create new habitat to entice back these enchanting birds, on the margins of their current range.”
- “The Trust's financial performance remained healthy in 2024-25. Total income (£6.3m) exceeded total expenditure (£6.0m) despite inflationary cost pressures, planned spend-down of project funds and strong investment in nature recovery, though accounting losses on investments resulted in a small net deficit (£0.13m).”

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
