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 charity'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

• “The past year has brought significant challenges, particularly due to the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, which has deeply affected our clients and the charity alike.”
• “In response, we restructured our services into three core areas: money management, debt and benefits, and support for victim-survivors of domestic and economic abuse.”
• “We achieved over £4.3 million in financial gains for our clients, including substantial debt write-offs, increased benefit income, and targeted grant distribution.”
• “Our new website, launched in January 2025, improving accessibility and provides vital resources for those seeking support.”
• “Our training work continues to grow, and this year we delivered 19 courses in partnership with Surviving Economic Abuse, 50% more than in 2023-2024. We trained over 300 people across the debt advice sector and financial services firms.”
• “The Lift Up Project provided financial grants totalling £20,000.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
