Significant events
- “As the global economy continues to face another set of uncertain and worrying economic conditions, the Company still has to navigate a higher cost base caused by the pressure of having significant periods of high inflation (in spite of some recent declines), and the knock on impact of doing business where interest rates have started to lower from a relatively higher base. This is in conjunction with the ongoing effect of the Russian invasion of Ukraine as well as other geopolitical actions.”
- “In 2024 we committed £1.2million to our community partners and we look to continue to support our partners in a similar way each year. This is a combination of direct partnerships as well as our annual Black Friday donation on collaborations sales relating to The Amy Winehouse Foundation collection.”

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
