Going concern

Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, as the Trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The Trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.”

Significant events

• “The Lido received a generous legacy which funded desirable upgrades including new showers, a grant for kitchen upgrade, and a new all-weather canopy with solar panels from the UK Government's Swimming Pool Support Fund (over £100,000).”
• “A record grant of £330,000 was secured, with £280,000 for replacement of its aging filtration system and £50,000 towards utility bills.”
• “The Hall benefitted from grant support, refurbishing the main auditorium floor, replacing lights with LED, and building a first-floor office.”
• “The Ferry has built assets that can benefit the Lido and is seriously looking into upgrading to an electric engine.”
• “Utility costs remained significant (£167,000 in 2024/25), but new 2-year contracts are expected to reduce annual costs to £115,000 in 2025/26 and £70,000pa by 2026/27.”

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
