Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Saffery LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The CMA has extended the deadline for the publication of its final report into the market investigation of the sector by six months, to May 2026.”
- “sharp increases in expenses, including those from Employer's National Insurance and National Living Wage changes”
- “Ophthalmology service experienced a drop in turnover due to the departure of two clinicians and hence a reduction in available capacity. The rebuilding of this department is underway and should be at full strength by Q4 of this year.”
- “We are holding off on any significant expansion, including the development of our mezzanine level (Project REACH), while the CMA investigation remains ongoing and sector valuations remain uncertain. We are also carefully monitoring the aforementioned significant cost increases that took effect in 2025.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
