- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Despite a second consecutive deficit and reliance on investment disposals, the Board believes NESS has sufficient resources to continue operating. This conclusion is based on reserves, cash flow forecasts, and ongoing SLA income.”
Significant events
- “The past year has been one of significant activity and change for NESS. Despite economic pressures and sector-wide challenges, we continued to deliver high-quality services to people with sight and hearing loss across Aberdeen, Moray, Dundee, and Angus.”
- “The Angus contract commenced on 1 April 2024, and Dundee continued under a rolling arrangement.”
- “Year two of our six-year strategy saw progress toward our 150th anniversary goals, including service innovation and community engagement.”
- “During 2024/25, we continued our programme of energy efficiency improvements at John Street, including the installation of new windows and energy-efficient lighting. The loft also received new insulation to improve the building's energy efficiency, as part of Business Energy Scotland's Energy Efficient Assessment.”
- “This initiative resulted in an interest-free loan arrangement, where part of the funding was provided as a grant and part as a loan.”
