Going concern
Affirmed

“The Trustees have critically reviewed the Income and Expenditure and Cash Flow Forecasts, which have been prepared by management, and which are based on a cautious approach using the best information available at the time. The Trustees have concluded that the charity and its trading subsidiary are expected to have sufficient cash and unrestricted reserves to continue to operate for the foreseeable future and conclude that there are no material uncertainties and the going concern basis is appropriate.”

Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-01-31 vs 2024-01-31

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
