- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In recognition that despite the prevailing financial risks, the charity is in a stable position in terms of unrestricted reserves and cash, primarily due to the designated funding reserve established following the sale of the building in 2021, it is considered that there continues to be no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for the 12 months following the approval of the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Contact's new organisational strategy - a five-year plan, was being developed and will formally launch in 2025-26.”
- “The Board concluded that the best option for Fledglings was to transfer the activity to a Community Interest Company (CIC) to be run independently from Contact. The transfer to the CIC was completed in June 2025.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
