Going concern

Affirmed

“A going concern assessment has been performed by the trustees which has involved the following: Preparation and review of cash flow forecasts up to September 2026 which show that the Charity is expected to maintain sufficient cash balances throughout this period to be able to meet their liabilities as they fall due. Assessment of the major financial risks facing the Charity and their potential impact on the cash flow forecasts presented. The trustees consider the most significant risk for the Charity to be shortfalls in income, in particular donation and legacy income which fund more discretionary charitable expenditure.”

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
