Audit opinion

Unqualified (clean)

Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group and parent charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “Over 1,200 people volunteered an invaluable 35,509 hours of their time that represents an impressive 24% increase on our 2023-24 volunteer figures.”
• “This year we established the Marine Futures Internships, funded by the Crown Estate in partnership with Morlais and M-SParc, providing two young people the opportunity to undertake a paid six-month internship and to take their first steps in their careers in the maritime sector.”
• “The Welsh Government announced in September its support for the reintroduction of beavers to Wales.”
• “The ospreys provided a dramatic start to the season: the resident female did not initially return from migration, however a new female soon settled into the nest with the resident male. Despite an epic battle between the new female and an intruder female, the new female won, cementing her status as the new resident female of the Brenig nest. She and the resident male went on to raise two chicks to migration.”
• “The most significant software-related change during the year was the transition to a new Customer Relationship Management system to manage, amongst other things, most membership-related processes.”
• “A key milestone for the year was the completion of our new Fundraising Strategy: the first document of this name produced since 2012.”

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
