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

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- 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 the parent 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
- “Style Acre has had a very busy and active year with the people we support taking part in a wide variety of activities, hobbies, work opportunities, outings and holidays. Our Work Programme removes barriers to employment faced by adults with learning disabilities by providing employment support to those wanting to work or volunteer.”
- “Our social enterprises have continued to develop during the year offering a wider range of work placements. Catering has expanded from the Tea Room in Blewbury to now offer external catering; the Retail offering has grown from the Charity Shop in Wallingford to now include other retail platforms including Vinted; Green Acre has increased the days it offers gardening services; our sustainable medal making social enterprise has seen significant growth during its second year of operation.”
- “Our Ways-to-Wellness project has continued to go from strength to strength during the year with many new opportunities and activities being offered. Several fundraising events have been held during the year including a fundraising summer soiree, Style Acre's Got Talent, Rock-and-Roll Bingo, and our annual Santa Dash. The people we support and our supporters took part in the Superhero Triathlon, ran the Blenheim 7K, and the Oxford Half Marathon to raise funds for the Charity.”
- “Style Acre will celebrate it's 30 year anniversary in the coming year with a number of events and projects. This will include fundraising events such as "£30k in our 30th year", encouraging people to take on challenges, and various events including a celebration picnic, "Together in Textiles" (a collaborative art project to commemorate 30 years of Style Acre) and an exhibition of Art.”
