  Material uncertainty over going concern

  The Trustees acknowledge that due to the continued risks with current economic uncertainty, as well further potential future downturns in the current economic climate, both of which are outside of management control, there is a plausible, adverse scenario that would be result in a case of non-compliance with banking covenants, and indeed the need to consider the short term financing of the Group's capital commitments, and that this constitutes a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Group's and Company's ability to continue as a Going Concern. However, given the existing mitigating factors and potential upsides to the budgets the Trustees are confident that the Group and Company can continue in operational existence to the end September 2026.

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
