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 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
- “The Company continues to investigate ways to innovate in the services provided, and how we can work with our foster carer families to support and develop the young people they care for. Consideration will continue to be given to the need to adopt business processes to drive efficiency of operation as well as effectiveness of ultimate service delivery. Continued appraisal of acquisition opportunities will be undertaken at appropriate times and to address specific strategic expansion plans.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
