“Based on the conclusions reached from these detailed going concern assessments, the directors of the Group are satisfied that the Group has sufficient resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future, being a period of not less than 12 months from the date of the approval of these financial statements. As at 31 December 2024, the Company had net assets of £1,895,080 (2023: £1,859,899). The Directors will continue the business operations for the foreseeable future. As a subsidiary of Jewel Midco Limited, Charles Taylor Limited, has confirmed in writing it will continue to support the Company for at least twelve months from the date of the approval of these financial statements, the Directors have a reasonable expectation, after considering the financial position and forecasts of the Group, that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of these financial statements.”

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
