Audit & accounting basis
From AI-extracted PDF accounts
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Auditor
- Hartley Fowler LLP
- 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. The trustees have undertaken a review of going concern and have put in place a set of guidelines, as set out in the reserves policy section of the Trustees Report, to mitigate any further reduction in the reserves of the charity. The trustees have agreed various options to replenish the reserves so as to ensure that the charity is a going concern, these options are noted in the Financial Review section of the Trustees Report.”
Significant events
- “MCT successfully secured funding through the Community Transport Association (CTA-UK) from the Department for Transport's (DFT) initiative to reduce loneliness across the UK, delivering the Loneliness and Isolation Project (LIP) and later expanding and rebranding to the Excursion Club "Out and About" with funding support from Merton Council's Civic Pride Fund.”
- “The growing demand for the Out and About Project clearly demonstrates its vital role in promoting social inclusion and enhancing the quality of life for Merton's older and disabled community. To meet this ongoing need, sustained funding will be essential to maintain and expand the service in future years.”
- “Vehicle replacement (Replacing all vehicles that do not meet the ULEZ required standard by October 2025). The extended ULEZ has accelerated MCT's phase-out of older minibuses through sales or scrapping, and by replacing them with new, compliant vehicles.”
- “MCT commissioned an extension to the Operations Team's office space by adding an office for the Deputy Chief Executive Officer.”
- “The Board worked with the CEO to develop a succession plan.”
