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. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Going concern

Affirmed

“The trustees have considered the charity's ability to continue as a going concern to assure themselves of the validity of this assumption when preparing the accounts. In making this assessment, they have taken into account all available information about the future for at least twelve months from the date the accounts are approved. The trustees continue to believe that the Going Concern assumption is appropriate.”

Significant events

• “World Obesity Day 2024 saw unprecedented engagement, with a campaign highlighting the intersections between obesity and broader health challenges, helping to shift narratives and encourage systemic change.”
• “The International Congress on Obesity 2024, held in São Paulo, brought together experts from around the world to share the latest science, policy strategies, and clinical approaches.”
• “Our education and data initiatives expanded further, with increased participation in SCOPE training and record engagement with the Global Obesity Observatory.”
• “In 2024, we welcomed 12 new member organizations, bringing our total to 109 across 125 countries and territories.”
• “We also secured a new contract with our publishers, Wiley, for our journal portfolio. This has secured a significant increase in guaranteed income from the journals for the organisation for the coming years.”
