  Material uncertainty over going concern

  We draw attention to note 1 in the financial statements, which indicates that if the growth in visitor numbers does not reach forecast levels this will increase pressure on funds to meet operational requirements. This, along with other matters set out in note 1 indicates that a material uncertainty exists which may cast significant doubt on the Group and Charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

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
