Material uncertainty over going concern
The Directors are reasonably confident, based on the progress of these discussions, that the necessary financing will be obtained and has agreed heads of terms for a £1m loan with its major shareholder. As at the date of approval of these financial statements, no binding agreements have been finalised. As a result, the successful completion of the financing is not wholly within the control of the Group and therefore, in conjunction with the inherent uncertainty with regards to revenue generation, represents a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.

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
