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 & accounting basis

- Auditor
- Mitchell Charlesworth (Audit) Limited
- 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.”
Significant events
- “Key achievements included reaching more clients in the most deprived areas of the Wirral through outreach work, leading the multi-agency Flourish Wellbeing Hub, and supporting even more clients through digital and face-to-face services.”
- “During the year, the Board of Trustees welcomed two new trustees - Chris Guy and Gavin Sterry.”
- “We secured additional funding from Wirral Council for the Ask Us Wirral service and SSMTR advice service. We also secured funding from Wirral Foodbank, Wirral St Johns Hospice, Macmillain and Mind to provide more advice.”
- “We raised funds to complement the services we deliver which, with donations from clients, staff and volunteers and the community, totalled £8,025.”
- “After the balance sheet date, the charity made the decision to exit its participation in the pension scheme operated by The Pensions Trust (TPT).”
