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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Directors' 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 the parent 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
- “2024 was a defining year for the Glass and Glazing Federation Group. As a Board, we committed to delivering Phase 1 of our long-term strategy: Stabilisation & Optimisation.”
- “During the year, the position of GGF Managing Director for the Trade Federation was re-established as part of a reorganisation at senior executive level that also created the new post of Chief Operating Officer (COO) to provide more focus and support on operational activities at subsidiary level and central service functions in the group.”
- “Following the ending of all external contracts in 2024 Borough IT will cease to exist as a trading entity going forward as focus is upon delivery of strategically important IT development projects internally in the Group.”
- “Progress in winding up the GGF Pension scheme continued, and this will be completed in 2025 meaning the financial liability will then end.”
- “Two legacy projects were still work in progress during the year being the GGF Employee Benefits Plan and the GGF Fund.”
