| Ratio | Trend | 2023-12-31 | 2024-12-31 |

| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 4.2% | 3.0% | |

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern. We have free reserves in excess of ten months of unrestricted expenditure which provides the capacity to respond to changing circumstances.”
Significant events
- “Launched our new Preparing for Treatment Service, and our Regional Lymphoma Days saw a welcome return to face-to-face support for members of our community.”
- “Lymphoma Matters magazine was launched in a brand new digital format - adding to our library of online resources and our Lymphoma Symptoms animation went on to win an award in the People's Choice category at the Smiley Charity Film Awards.”
- “Over 1,200 people in the UK completed the 2024 Patient Survey which we conducted in collaboration with the Lymphoma Coalition, of which Lymphoma Action was a founding member.”
- “2024 also saw us support the National Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma Audit (NNHLA), which is part of the National Cancer Audit Collaborating Centre (NATCAN) and aims to improve treatment and reduce variations in care across England and Wales.”
- “2024 was an exciting year and it was fantastic to see the fruits of our development activities as we reached more people and raised more income than we had expected.”
- “However, the year also brought unexpected challenges due to factors outside of our control, such as issues experienced by third party service providers or our ICT systems.”
- “2024 also saw a year of change when it came to wider social and political affairs. There were a number of changes relating to the ownership and governance of social media companies.”
- “There was also huge media interest in Al and we set up a new Al working group with transparency and learning at its heart.”
- “Crucially, 2024 saw a change in government and a new health secretary which naturally impacts our work as we seek to determine how government policy will affect those we support.”

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
