- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- 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 charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “On the 27th of January 2025 6 programmes across Nepal, Uganda, Tanzania, India and Zimbabwe and 1 Global Programme received cease work orders from USAID or USAID implementing partners as a result of the US president's executive order to suspend USAID work. This was then realised as termination of grant contracts in March 2025. This has resulted in £600k of lost, contracted income in the financial year 2024/25.”

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
