- 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.”
Significant events
- “Two siblings from one of our children's homes successfully returning to their birth family. We provided both children with a period of stability and worked with their parents to enable the siblings to safely return to their family home.”
- “Holy Cross Nursing Home in Sunderland achieved accreditation to the Gold Standards Framework for outstanding end of life care, joining sister home St Catherine's in Newcastle which was accredited last year.”
- “The charity has re-invested in its engagement with schools and parishes during the year, supporting both fundraising activity and the wider profile of its services.”
- “The charity has well developed plans to open two new services during 2026/27. The first a commissioned service for the residential care of children with disabilities. The second a charity funded service to support vulnerable women at risk of being homeless and/or being criminally exploited.”
