Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Azets Audit Services
- 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.”
Significant events
- “ACAMH Learn, the new online learning platform from the Association for Child and Adolescent Mental Health (ACAMH), was launched in October 2024 as a free, open-access resource designed to advance education and professional development in child and adolescent mental health.”
- “a new events strategy was implemented at the end of 2024. This strategy included the recruitment of a clinician to lead a team of staff with the vision to deliver a revitalised programme from 2025.”
- “JCPP Advances (JCPPA) which completed 4 years of publishing in 2024, has been indexed in PubMedCentral in addition to DOAJ (directory of open access journals) and PsycINFO, the abstracting and indexing database of American Psychology Association. The journal will receive its first Impact Factor in June 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
