- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The trustees have considered the financial position, including the net current liabilities of £19,941 (2023: £214,034), the negative free reserves of £98,588 (2023: £322,969), and the future grant income pledged in relation to Sizewell C, and have considered both the Group and the Charity to be a going concern. Thus, the Trustees have continued to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events
- “The year saw a significant restructuring of Pro Corda's delivery in reaction to the commencement of the Sizewell C project, and its impact on Pro Corda's permanent home of Leiston Abbey. Pro Corda received the first instalment of the £500,000 Section106 grant secured as mitigation against the Sizewell project.”

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
