Going concern

Affirmed

“After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. As of July 2025, the charity has secured over 70% of its budgeted income for the year. The current fundraising landscape means there is uncertainty in 2026 with internet company income, but the charity continues to diversify its income by focusing efforts on selling its Al tools and training, focusing on individual giving and partnerships with trusts and major donors. For this reason the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. The Charity is continuously monitoring its expected income levels, operational targets are set in order to ensure the charity secures sufficient funding to fulfil its on-going obligations.”

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
