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

Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue.

Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the accounts, we have concluded that the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the accounts 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 original accounts were authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “The sale of the property has helped us focus more on our objectives, and in January, we completed our conversion to a Charitable Company.”
• “The Foundation obtained charitable status in January 2025 and are proceeding with the integration of the WPA Charitable Foundation into The Foundation which is expected to be achieved by the end of the calendar year 2025.”
• “The sale of the Foundation's investment property at Culmhead was completed in June 2024. The proceeds were invested.”
