Going concern

Affirmed

“The Trustees are content that future budgets and cash flow projections for the Charity mean that there are no material uncertainties regarding the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern. We have prepared forecasts which consider our cash position, sources of income and planned expenditure for the financial year ahead. These forecasts incorporate key challenges including the cost-of-living crisis, changes to employers national insurance costs, risk to contracts and growth activities including the change to hybrid working and our ability to reinvest funds from property sales in services and working capital. The forecasts include additional costs and savings arising from our response and have considered sensitivities surrounding our future income. The Trustees have considered this and, of special note, the effect on salary costs and negotiations that may need to take place with commissioners. We are also aware of the effects of potential changes to VAT legislation and the importance of DATRIG funding, not only to Via but to the sector as a whole. We continue to monitor this very closely and with our service managers and budget holders, work with our staff, suppliers, commissioners, partners, and service users to ensure we achieve value for money in all that we do through efficient and effective use of our resources. During 24/25 we have successfully expanded services in Gloucestershire, Surrey, Kingston and Hillingdon and we will continue to work in partnership with these and all of our commissioners. The Trustees have continued to support losses in Via Residential, whilst the Trustees believe in the importance of the provision of inpatient services the operation must be financially sustainable and recent management work across all aspects of this service has provided confidence that we can soon operate on this basis. The Trustees have scrutinised the key assumptions within forecasts and are satisfied that the current level of free reserves and cash balances are adequate to meet the group's obligations as they fall due. Having regard to the above, the Trustees are satisfied that there are no material uncertainties around the decision to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements.”

Significant events

• “This year has been a year with substantial growth in services. Turnover has increased 44% as we have introduced vital services in Gloucestershire and extended services in Hillingdon, Surrey and Kingston.”
• “The Charity has continued its growth objective, Via Residential (Passmores House) has now extended to 29 rooms and new clients are expected following CQC accreditation in quarter two 25/26, planning permission has now been approved for our Women's Only Detox facility, and we now move to the fundraising stage for this. The Trustees, having previously reassessed our property needs and with the move to hybrid working, made the decision that funds invested in our headquarters premises and investment properties would be better used to improve our services and further our charitable objectives, the Trustees (having sold our headquarters in February 2025) sold the investment property at Harrow Road, in September 2025.”
