Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Barlow Andrews LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Income for the year included a legacy of around £950,000 for which the trustees are extremely grateful.”
- “Arts Council accreditation... was achieved in January 2025.”
- “New attractions and facilities are scheduled to open; these include the first phase of a narrow-gauge railway, improving interpretation and a new exhibition on trolleybuses of the Don Valley. Medium-term projects include the construction of a new entrance and car park, thus removing the dependency on neighbouring landowners, and commissioning a new indoor play area housed in a former Blackpool tram.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
