- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have performed a going concern assessment which indicate that, taking account of reasonable possible downsides, the Company will have sufficient funds. The directors obtained a support letter from H&M Hennes & Mauritz GBC AB confirming that the parent will provide financial support to the Company in case of financial difficulties during the next twelve-month period. They have considered the ability and willingness of the parent to provide this support and are satisfied. Accordingly, these financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.”
Significant events
- “In 2024, the Company decided on a strategical modification to its approach to call centre services by discontinuing operations at its Scotland office. This decision aimed to optimise efficiency and reduce operational costs. Between November 2024 and March 2025, the winding down and closure of the call centre was completed. This resulted in a redundancy provision being recognised in the current year, this has been disclosed as part of Other Payables which is an amount of £644 570. This is an adjusting event as the closure of the call centre was known at year end.”

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
