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

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At 31 December 2024 the Company had net current assets of £36,441k (2023: £6,762k) and made a loss before tax for the year of £1,099k (2023: £1,459k loss). The directors are satisfied that the business remains resilient and has adapted to the current economic climate. The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts and are satisfied that the Company will continue to be able to pay its debts as they fall due. Accordingly, the directors have prepared these financial statements on the fundamental assumption that the Company is a going concern.”
Significant events
- “The company is under investigation from the Health and Safety Executive which is seeking prosecution following the death of an employee on the company's premises. Following a Coroner's Court inquiry in 2023, it was determined that the death was accidental. In the event that the Company is found to be liable, the directors have been advised that the compensation payable could be an unlimited fine. The directors note that in the event of an unfavourable judgement, the Company would not be able to recoup the loss from another party.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
