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 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 charitable 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.”

• “We continue to work with awareness of staffs' mental health being affected by the pandemic, cost of living crisis and other issues...”
• “A number of new living models have been developed. They are apartment style, with people having their own front door.”

• “There has been an increase of 3.6% income from supported tenancies.”

• “Stepping Out is well established and has developed extensively since its creation to the point of offering a wide range of possibilities to many people. It has a real focus on health; well-being and employment with a gardening project and two shops inside Extra Care Schemes offering purposeful employment experience for people we support.”
• “Believe in your future is a partnership between local authority, schools, colleges and providers and we are ambassadors of that programme, the aim is to attend each college and every school in the areas for years 9 and 11 and talk about careers in social care. Another programme that we are involved in is SWAP.”
