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 and 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.”
Group structure

Significant events
- “The company has seen an overall decrease in turnover over the previous year as a result in the general slowdown in the marketplace.”
- “The group and company has historically seen the demand for caravans increasing following the pandemic which has resulted in the increased trading performance and ultimately the increased profits obtained in prior years. During the year, the trading activity has declined.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
