| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 34.9% | 36.4% | |

Audit & accounting basis

- Yes — abridged accounts (limited disclosure)
- Auditor
- Haines Watts Swindon Limited
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 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 charitable 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
- “At the end of the financial year 23/24 the British Youth Council, a long-standing and important organisation, closed its doors due to the pressures on funding. The British Youth Council was the national youth council of the UK.”
- “NYA secured an extension year [of DCMS grant]. This reflected the external political environment with a new Government taking office in 24/25 and the time required to work on longer-term plans.”
- “NYA's successful Thrive programme with NatWest was renewed for a further year to run during 2025.”
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. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
