Material uncertainty over going concern
The going concern basis of the Group depends on the continuing support from the directors, who have agreed through a formal letter of support to continue to provide that support, if required, to the Group for the foreseeable future and for at least 12 months after these financial statements are approved by the directors. As such, the going concern status of the Company is linked to the directors' ability to fund the Group.
