Significant events

• “The business has traded above budget for the first half of 2025 and materially ahead of performance for the same period in 2024. Operational performance and cost control remain management's top priorities, particularly in light of the substantial increase in National Insurance from April 2025 and other unavoidable cost increases.”

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
