Audit & accounting basis

Accounting basis: FRS 102
Auditor: COUNTING NORTH LIMITED
Audit opinion: Qualified
Going concern: Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use if the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

“Durham Christian Partnership (DCP) has continued to grow and develop the projects previously established; however, it was decided to review the portfolio of projects in late 2024 and early 2025.”
“During 2024 help was given to over 3,000 households (Fuel Bank).”
“In 2024, 468 individuals were helped (Community Money Advice County Durham).”
“During 2024 over 50 tonnes of donations were recycled (DCP Community Shop).”
“Over £660,000 worth of food was distributed by the Foodbanks and over £150,000 of energy support was accessed via the Fuel Bank scheme.”
“DCP benefitted from around 50,000 hours of volunteering time in 2024, consistent with 2023.”

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
