- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have carefully considered the going concern in relation to the ongoing trading and have concluded that this remains appropriate, as the business has traded through 24/25 and is well placed for future growth. 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 company'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.”
Significant events
- “Diversification of revenue stream work has begun”
- “A full investment plan for 2025-26 is in production.”

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
