Material uncertainty over going concern
It is the intention of the directors to apply to strike off the company from the Companies House register in the near future and, as a result, the going concern basis is no longer considered appropriate. For the above reason, the directors and members have determined that the going concern basis is no longer appropriate, and the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern in order to give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and the results of the company for the year ended 31 December 2025.

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
