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
Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2024-03-31 | 2025-03-31 |

| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 36.4% | 40.6% | |
| Current ratio | 2.75x | 2.45x |
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
“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 group's or charitable company'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
- “2025 brought the realisation that the charity has been in operation for 40 years following initial meetings in the 1980's to the formation of the organisation as a legal entity and the establishment to the bank account.”
- “New initiatives included the start of the Community Connector Project in funded by the conjunction with Macmillan Cancer Support Charity in partnership with The Nishkam Centre.”
- “In September we held a major celebration of our 40th Anniversary holding a formal dinner attended by the mayor of Sandwell and the local MP alongside current and former staff and volunteers, a community day and a Thanksgiving service on the last day.”
- “Unfortunately, the celebrations were tainted by the news of the passing of Gary Mellis on 28th September.”
- “In September a meeting with the Eveson Trust resulted in a commitment to fund a 1 year memory loss group whilst a chance exchange with Leroy Christie led to an initial investment from Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) to support the purchase of specific items including CCTV monitoring system and installing a new 6 burner gas cooker that increased the kitchens capacity to product hot meals.”
- “The biggest challenge going forward will be securing the future of the Sapphire projects and we are pleased to report that we have had some very positive discussions with local people around the re-establishment of the youth club and it is all set to restart in May 2024 as well as a Macmillan cancer support charity with a view to being part of a new initiative focussing on cancer.”
