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 Society'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
- “SSJ purchased 2 properties to provide move-on opportunities for 12 residents utilising these funding sources.”
- “Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities provided a grant to SSJ through the local authority to acquire and develop 15 properties for Afghan and Ukrainian refugee families. By 31 March 2024 SSJ had acquired 12 of these properties, the purchases of the remaining 3 properties were completed in April & May 2025.”
- “SSJ has agreed the purchase of 49 units of accommodation from Hyde Housing Association. These are properties that SSJ already leases from or manages for Hyde but the purchase of these properties secures their availability for SSJ's residents into the future (see note 26). In June 2025 the Board authorised Capital Expenditure of £1.5M to purchase 49 units of housing accommodation from a Registered Provider of Social Housing. The transaction is expected to take place during the financial year ending 31 March 2026.”
