Going concern

Affirmed

“The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties regarding the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern due to consistent and secure subscription income as a result of fostering close relationships with our membership base and the careful management of costs. The organisation works hard to maintain a reputation as a trusted provider for the sector and to provide affordable and integral services, developed in consultation with members. The trustees make and document an assessment of whether the charity is a going concern when preparing the annual accounts, which covers a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements.”

Significant events

• “A staff restructure was completed to align resources with strategic priorities. The restructure reduced eight roles and created two new posts, streamlining operations and outsourcing non-core activities. As of 31 July 2025, we employed 10 staff (nine women, one man) across Business Support, Revenue Generation, and Digital Development.”
• “The migration of Learning on Screen's digital systems such as Box of Broadcast to AWS was completed in June 2025, marking a critical milestone in our digital transformation journey.”
• “Finance operations were successfully transitioned to external management, strengthening resilience and reducing reliance on internal resource. This included the full implementation of Xero, our new cloud-based finance system.”
• “In June 2025 we launched our new brand website, delivering a modern, accessible, and user-focused platform to replace an outdated site.”

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
