Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Mitchell Charlesworth
- 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 principal risk to the business remains the challenging trading environment that has developec over the past few years. It is clear for all to see tha: the hospitality sector is suffering, with an alarming number of good venues shutting permanently, particularly since the turn of 2025.”
- “We will also add additional revenue streams to the company, whether by increasing the number of trading units or venturing into other lines of business adjacent to our current ones, that require little capital investment and make use of our existing expertise.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
