- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustee's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's or the group's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Subsidiaries
- Hearing Dogs for Deaf People (Trading) Limited · 100% held · UK · operates a restaurant and café and sells promotional items.
Significant events

- “We have aligned our internal structures and leadership to provide the capabilities and experience to deliver.”
- “We have worked together with the Board of Trustees to refresh the governance structure and have established key sub-committees to support each area of the Charity.”
- “We have designated investment in fundraising capabilities to mitigate a current high dependency on legacy income and to diversify our fundraising, seizing identified opportunities in high net worth and commercial funding.”
- “We have reviewed the status of our digital estate and capabilities to modernise and future-proof the Charity and to drive further efficiencies. We will seek funding and pro bono support from 2025 to help us to deliver a comprehensive digital roadmap.”
- “During 2024/5, thousands of people have donated, volunteered, sponsored a hearing dog puppy, played our lottery or raffles, run marathons and taken on other fundraising challenges, bought from our online shop, supported us through their company or foundation, and more.”
- “This year we also began a research collaboration with Manchester Metropolitan University to develop a Relational Training Model that will improve the outcomes for hearing dogs in training and working hearing dog partnerships.”
- “During the year we took the first steps to establishing a strengthened People and Culture team and a new strategy, reflecting the needs set out in our organisational strategy as well as those voiced from staff and volunteers.”
