Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw attention to the trustees report (page 12 of the financial statements), which indicates that the trading company within the charity group incurred a net loss of £115,000 during the year ended 31 December 2024 and, as of that date, the trading company's current liabilities exceed its total assets by £179,000. As stated in the Trustees' report, these events or conditions, along with other matters set forth in the report, indicates that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the trading company's ability to continue as a going concern.
