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 introduction of recent government led Childcare reforms represents the most significant in the history of childcare and are being introduced on a phased basis, between September 2023 to September 2025. Already they are generating an increase in demand for our childcare services.”
- “Diversification of service offer to deliver flexibility with Childcare reforms is planned for the 2025/26 year. This will enable all childcare premises to be open along with a variation of offer, term time only to offer greater flexibility to parents.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
