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 charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the original financial statements were authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “We faced challenges as a legacy of events in 23/24 but we faced them as a united team of staff, and volunteers including, of course, our Trustees.”
• “I joined Age UK Gloucestershire as Chair in October 2024, in the midst of an event which caused so much heartache to our colleagues as well as being detrimental to our financial situation. With that incident now resolved, and with our organisational restructure in place...”
• “In Autumn 2024, the Government announced that the Winter Fuel Payment would be means-tested. To raise awareness, we ran an extensive campaign aimed at tackling the issue that one in 3 older people were not receiving the benefits they were entitled to and would therefore miss out on the Winter Fuel Payment. ...We are delighted that the Government has since revised the Winter Fuel Payment policy.”
• “In financial year 2023, a fraud was discovered that was carried out between 2016 and 2023. This was disclosed as an extraordinary item in 2023 and 2024 and the current and prior year impact is laid out in the table below.”

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
