Audit & accounting basis

- Standalone (parent only)
- Abridged
- Yes — abridged accounts (limited disclosure)
- Auditor
- Kendall Wadley LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The Autumn Budget 2024 saw the Government increase employer's National Insurance (NI) contributions from 13.8% to 15%, and lower the level at which businesses start paying NI contributions, from £9,100 to £5,000.”
- “Sales and participation has also been aided by over £1m of investment in the gym and studio facilities across four contracts during 2024.”
- “At the end of 2023 applications were submitted for all Local Authority contracts under the Sport England Energy Efficiency Grant Scheme with applications totalling over £1m were successful across five contracts. Works have successfully been completed at a number of facilities throughout 2024, with additional funding of £180k secured late 2024 within the Uttlesford contract for a solar PV installation.”
- “During the year, a bad debt amounting to £539,000 (2023: £Nil) was written off. This had arisen following the cessation of a trust partner, leading to the debt being unrecoverable.”

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
