Material uncertainty over going concern
The directors have made a thorough assessment of the Company's ability to continue operating as a going concern and concluded that a basis other than going concern is appropriate given the decision to cease trade. The company ceased to use the going concern basis in the year ended 31 December 2021 and the necessary adjustments were made in that financial year. No additional adjustments were made during the current year.

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
