| Ratio | Trend | 2024-03-31 | 2025-03-31 |

| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 58.6% | 58.2% | |

Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Sector-distribution context coming next.
Audit & accounting basis

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In preparing these financial statements on the going concern basis, the Trustees have considered the Trust's net liabilities position. Although the trust is in this position, they continue the process of establishing a number of new income streams alongside some of their more successful existing income stream. They continue to move away from some of the fundraising events that have been less successful in previous years and increase the trust's risk profile. Many of these new income streams have already begun to generate significant returns. Given this and some additional financial support received from one of the trusts guarantors post year end the Trustees have concluded that the going concern basis continues to be appropriate.”
Significant events
- “During the current year, restoration and preservation works have continued and a number of successful events have taken place within the Terraced Gardens to raise awareness and increase the profile of the project, which has attracted future funding from a number of sources in order to supplement the main Heritage Lottery Fund grant.”

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
