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. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Audit opinion

Unqualified (clean)

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 group's and parent 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

• “During 2024, the group suspended mental health services at the Grove Park Mental Health Unit in the latter half of the year while restructuring the service and management team ahead of 2025.”
• “In line with its strategic objectives, the group has acquired a new property in Q2 2025. This new facility will expand care home capacity, enhance service quality, and reinforce Ashton Healthcare's strong position in the Sussex market.”
• “In September 2025, the group and company entered into a new secured loan facility of £27.5m. The facility, which is interest only for 2 years, is for a term of five years and bears interest at 3.5% above the Bank of England base rate. The proceeds of the facility were used to refinance existing borrowing arrangements and to provide additional funding for the development of another home within the group.”
