Going concern

Affirmed

“After making reasonable enquiries and having considered the matters described above, the Trustees believe that the Charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable purpose; will be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due and will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence until the end of the going concern period, being the period from the approval of the annual report and financial statements to 31 July 2026.”

Significant events

• “In 2024, the trustees of Ronald McDonald House Charities (UK) worked with the Executive Team to develop a new five-year organisational Impact Strategy - charting a course for how we want to 'serve more families and serve them better.'”
• “In 2024, McDonald's Franchisees, McDonald's staff, restaurants and customers collectively raised an outstanding £9 million for Ronald McDonald House Charities (UK). Some of the fundraising campaigns coincided with the company's milestone 50th birthday celebrations, as well as our charity's 35th anniversary.”
• “Towards the end of 2024, we completed long-term maintenance work at our Birmingham House, with families now able to enjoy a freshly decorated home with new flooring in communal areas, new carpets in bedrooms, freshly painted walls, and updated bathrooms. We were delighted that a partnership with Together for Cinema meant we could also open a new cinema room for young patients...”

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
