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.

Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' 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 charity'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

• “At Hay Bridge, a huge amount of work resulted in the successful approval of a new 10-year Countryside Stewardship agreement commencing on the 1st of January 2024. This will help fund management and monitoring to further improve this exceptional Nature Reserve.”
• “A new reserve manager was appointed in July 2024 with a key role being the delivery of this agreement.”
• “At Hay Bridge a grant was obtained for Cumbria Wildlife Trust for the creation of six new ponds for the benefit of Great Crested Newts.”
• “At Hartley, a Farming in Protected Landscapes Grant was obtained in the previous financial year for the creation of a footpath in the Hartley Lakes Field and also across the higher land for public access. The footpath is now open and there has been good feedback from the local community.”
• “The Trustee skill set was strengthened in November 24 by the appointment of Maggie Hough, accountant, bringing financial expertise to the board and in April 2025 by the appointment of Emma Walker, a younger trustee with forest management skills.”
