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

“The Trustees regularly check the Balance Sheet value and consider the implications of grants that are funded each year. The net result for 2024-25 was significantly lower than in previous years, but careful consideration of our reserves allowed us to award a similar level of grants as in previous years, proving that the reserves policy was robust. The balance sheet shows reserves of £3,067,872 (2024: £4,178,272) and the Trustees are confident that we will be able to meet our commitments and consider the charity to be a going concern.”
