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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' 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 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.”
Significant events
- “2024 followed on from the previous year's consolidation with an increase in growth of 10% of turnover to £16.21m.”
- “Key partnerships with the Football Association of Wales and repeat cliental continued strongly with some new clients coming on board.”
- “The restructuring of the maintenance division of the business is complete with its own Business development manager in place, this will begin to show improvements over the following years with growth in this department.”
