- Audit opinion
- 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 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.”

- “Joint work with Leeds Older People's Forum and Volition (collectively known as Forum Central) has continued, with several joint projects including a jointly commissioned review of VCSE infrastructure support in the cty, an update to the biannual State of the Sector report (due for publication summer 2025) and work to develop the Doing Good Leeds website as a joint resource.”
- “Amicable - a positive legacy of the Giving Time project, which supported those managing criminal histories into volunteering, the Amicable project continued over the course of the year.”
- “Community Champions - originally developed during the pandemic to support volunteers in the city's diverse communities to deliver accurate, positive and up to date health messages, this project has received renewed funding and is now focussing on vaccinations across the life course.”
