Material uncertainty over going concern
The Company is considering a proposal to retire as operator of its current funds in favour of its parent. No formal decision has yet been taken by the Board and the date on which this may happen is unclear. Accordingly, the directors continue to treat the Company as a going concern and have prepared the accounts on this basis. The Group has a loan for £18.2m which was due for repayment on the 1 August 2024 and an agreement has been reached with the lender to extend the payment date to 31 December 2024. The Board has begun discussions with a number of potential lenders to refinance the loan.

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
