Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw attention to Note 1.2 in the financial statements. This indicates that the company reported a profit of £322,513 for the year ended 31 March 2025 and had net current assets of £509,703 and net assets of £848,770 at that date. However, the company is part of a group which incurred a net loss of £1.2 million during the year ended 31 March 2025 and, as at that date, had net current liabilities of £2.72 million and net liabilities of £20,101. As stated in Note 1.2, these events or conditions, along with other matters set out in that note, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the group's, and therefore the company's, ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

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

Significant events
- “The company moved into a new Head Office at Thurmaston Lane in Leicester, this is a state of the art building in excess 25,000 sq ft and a total site size of over 2 acres, this enabled the business to consolidate our training and Innovation Centre, Contact Centre, Finance Team as well as the office for the senior management team and Directors. This consolidation has enabled us streamline processes and further develop the company's culture of supporting and growing the people within our team. The Company's move to the new Head Office at 301 Thurmaston Lane resulted in significant onc-off costs during the financial year. These included substantial investment in IT and telephony systems, warehouse racking and storage installation, as well as other general relocation expenses associated with a move of this scale.”
