“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
- “The first bathroom at St Peter's Row was completed in the summer of 2023, making a huge difference to residents' lives.”
- “A project to extend and enhance Barn Garden facilities for Service Users was fully completed in summer 2024.”
- “In 2024-2025, a full year of fundraising was completed utilising charitable trusts, foundations, community & event fundraising, and regular/individual donations.”
- “The Scotts Annual Summer Fete on 17th August 2024 raised £1,779.”
- “A team participated in the Annual Dragon Boat Race on 4th September 2024, raising almost £1,000.”

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
