Material uncertainty over going concern
The Company incurred a loss of £1.0 million during the year and had net current liabilities of £1.9 million at the balance sheet date. As explained in note 2.2, the Company's continued operations are dependent upon achieving future profitable trading and the ongoing availability of funding support These matters, together with the other matters described in note 2.2, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
