Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Kreston Reeves LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees' use of 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 twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “On 29 March 2022, plans were officially withdrawn for the London Resort (a proposed theme park on the Swanscombe peninsula). In March 2023 London Resort Company Holdings (LRCH) went into administration. Costs for the substantial campaign efforts have been promised back to CPRE Kent and others, but, due to the company going into administration, no payment has so far been made.”
- “The Making Space for Nature partnership, led by Kent County Council, was launched in October 2023. The Partnership will steer the creation of a Local Nature Recovery Strategy (LNRS) for Kent and Medway, which is a statutory requirement of the Environment Act 2021. The consultation process for the Kent and Medway LNRS started in Jan 2025 and closed mid-March 2025.”

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
