Material uncertainty over going concern
The company is expected to cease trading on 7 November 2026 and it is the intention of the directors to wind up the company sometime in the future. The company is therefore not expected to remain in operation for a period of longer than 12 months from the date of this report. As a result, the financial statements are prepared on a basis other than going concern.

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
