- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group and parent charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

- “A new 5-Year Development Plan has been finalised, setting a clear vision for the site through to 2029.”
- “In October 2024, we welcomed a new Chair, and since then, one new director has been elected to the board.”
- “MACC donated £14K to local voluntary and charitable groups under its Charitable Giving Scheme.”
- “MACC strategically divested its interest in DSUK in May 2025, enabling its partner to operate with greater agility within the fast-evolving space industry.”

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
