- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Trustees have reviewed Northern Ireland Hospice's financial position and consequently believe there are sufficient resources to manage any operational or financial risks. The Board considers there is a reasonable expectation that Hospice has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of signing of the accounts and the Board are unaware of any additional material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt upon Hospice's ability to continue as a going concern.”
Group structure
- NORTHERN IRELAND HOSPICE · parent
- Northern Ireland Hospice (Trading) Limited 100%
Significant events
- “Our printing supplier went out of business, which delayed two of our biggest campaigns: Lights to Remember and Little Stars. This had a significant impact, reducing income by around £200,000.”
- “2024/25 marked a positive turning point for our in-house services at Horizon House. Thanks to generous sponsorship funding, we were able to reinstate a sixth bed with a confirmed commitment for the next three years.”
- “One challenge was a drop in global textile recycling prices. Even though we recycled 20% more than last year, income from recycling only went up by 2%.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
