Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- JW Hinks LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.”
Significant events
- “2024/2025 has been a significant year of transition in which we said farewell to former Principal, Prof Clive Marsh at the end of August 2024, and welcome in October 2025 to new Principal, the Rt Revd Anne Hollinghurst. Much gratitude must go to Clive for his dedicated work though a challenging period which included navigating the uncertainties of the Covid era, but also strengthening the position of Queen's within the wider sector of Higher Education.”

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
