“Having assessed the financial forecasts and possible mitigating actions, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the next 12 months from the date of approval of these accounts. Therefore, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.

The board have confirmed that R Caring has the ability to provide cash funding at short notice.”

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
