Following this, the Association exited the scheme entirely in September 2024, releasing funds of £1,607k previously held as an indemnity against the scheme, and settling the exit payment of £768k that had been included within creditors for the year ending 31 March 2024.”

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
