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

- Robson Laidler Accountants Limited
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- 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 charity'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
- “During the financial year, VCAS supported 1,486 victims of crime and provided fraud prevention advice and materials to 2,117 individuals. The service played a critical role in the aftermath of the 2024 summer riots in Hartlepool and Middlesbrough, where over 200 properties and vehicles were damaged. VCAS deployed two staff members to the local community hub for two weeks, offering direct emotional support and crime prevention resources to affected residents.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
