“The trustees are satisfied that the group has rectified its going concern position following the existence of a material uncertainty in the 2024 accounts. During the year, a number of strategic and operational changes were implemented to strengthen financial resilience and address previously identified uncertainties. These measures have included reduction in on going expenditure, improved cost controls, continuing to seek a diverse income portfolio, and refinements to governance and risk management processes. As a result, the trustees are confident that the group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.”

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
