The Directors took the decision in 2023 to sell the trade and assets of the Company to another group company on 1 January 2024. The Company will remain in existence immediately following this divestment pending dormancy at a future date. Accordingly, the Company will cease to carry out its principal activities and the financial statements have been prepared on a non-going concern basis.

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
