- Crowe U.K. LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The trustees have reviewed our activities, current financial position and risks on our voluntary income and planned supporter recruitment. Although we expect a deficit in 2025/26, this will be funded by drawing down our reserves. Our trustees will continue to regularly review financial scenarios that model factors such as supporter recruitment levels and rates of lapsing, as well as the impact of wider economic risks such as falling investment values. These currently indicate that it remains appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
