  Material uncertainty over going concern

  We draw attention to note 1.2 in the financial statements which discusses The Trustee's assessment of going concern. As stated in note 1.2 the company is heavily reliant on grant income from BMBC and a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern if BMBC were to withdraw this funding or reduce it significantly.

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

Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Margin ratios are hidden where reported turnover is too small relative to profit to yield a meaningful figure — typical of holding companies whose income is mostly subsidiary dividends rather than trading revenue. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Significant events

• “2024-25 saw significant leadership change for the charity with a new chair of the board of trustees, Elaine Price, and the appointment of a new CEO & Artistic Director, Dr. Daniel Winder. The period from April 2024 - Sept 2024 was focused on the completion of our two-year capital works programme to reinstate our historic Eldon St entrance building. The opening weekend saw over 2000 people explore a pop-up exhibition celebrating Barnsley Civic's history.”
