“The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the directors have prepared detailed budgets for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing the accounts which show that Carlisle Cleaning Services Limited is able to meet all of its liabilities as they fall due. The directors are confident of being able to trade for a period of at least 12 months.”

- “We are proud to have initiated our first comprehensive Hard FM contract this year, further demonstrating our ability to diversify our service offerings.”

Whilst train operating companies have been advised that their contracts will transfer over the coming parliamentary term, we are comforted it is widely accepted the supply chains referenced below will remain in place for the foreseeable time.”
- “In 2024 we are pleased to confirm more and more clients have taken additional service lines from Carlisle and we see this trend continuing in the coming year.”
