- 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
- “A total of £6m was granted by the Trust in 2024 to fund the UK Section, and £9.6m to fund international projects.”
- “On 25 December 2024, the Aden-based Specialized Criminal Court of Appeal acquitted journalist Ahmad Maher who had been sentenced by the Specialised Criminal Court to four years in prison.”
- “The UK Government scrapped the Rwanda Scheme and amended the Illegal Migration Act so that people's asylum claims can now be considered.”
- “In December 2024, the CEOs of three organisations, including Amnesty International UK Section Charitable Trust, handed in petitions with the signatures of 200,000 people to defend the right to protest.”

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
