- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Given the strength of the balance sheet and liquidity the Board believes that while there is some uncertainty in respect of inflationary pressures and future funding opportunities these do not pose a material uncertainty that would cast doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. The charity's financial performance in the year proved resilient and on this basis the Board has a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being a period of twelve months after the date on which the report and financial statements are signed. For this reason, it continues to adopt the going concern basis in the financial statements.”

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
