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.”

Significant events

• “The disability employment gap remains at its widest point since 2018, reflecting the ongoing impact of the pandemic alongside wider national and international economic challenges.”
• “Fairfield Trust has experienced sustained growth in turnover, staffing, and asset base in recent years.”
• “The organisation continues to maintain a 'Good' rating from both Ofsted and the Care Quality Commission.”
• “Increases in the cost of living, utilities, and general operating expenses are placing additional financial pressure on the organisation and its commercial activities.”
• “During the 2023-24 financial year the trustees implemented a new investment policy which included engaging the services of an investment management company.”

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
