Material uncertainty over going concern
As the Company has ceased to trade, the directors have prepared the financial statements on a basis other than a going concern. No adjustments to the financial statements arose as a result of ceasing to apply the going concern basis.

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

Significant events
- “On 1 January 2025, the trade and assets of the company were transferred at book value to Busy Bees Nurseries Limited, a fellow Group company. Following declaration and payment of a dividend to its parent company in order to realise the profit and loss reserves accumulated, the entity does not expect to enter into any transactions. It is expected that this company will eventually be dissolved, therefore all activities have been marked as discontinued.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
