- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Access to funding remains a major challenge in a difficult financial environment compounded by the fact that demand for our services is increasing and the underlying costs of providing our service are also increasing.”
- “The registered office for CASWS was moved from Haydon Place, Guildford to Bridge Street, Godalming in preparation for the move from Haydon Place.”
- “Good progress has been made in reducing the risk scores for IT and HR issues. The former, due to the successful transition of all CASWS IT systems to a cloud based single system, and the latter as a result of the hiring of additional resource to focus on HR issues.”
- “We have had our second student placement from the University of Surrey during the year, which has been a very successful placement.”
- “In 2024/5, funds were invested in the development and implementation of our Service Model, specifically upgrades to our information technology infrastructure. We continue to make progress on finding more suitable accommodation and in 2025 are relocating our Guildford operation to more cost suitable accommodation.”
