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.”
Significant events
- “The year 2024 was a momentous year for the Congregation as it held its 42nd General Chapter in May 2024 at which 36 delegates participated in the Generalate in Rome. This brought the General Council together with representatives from the 5 Provinces, 4 Regions and 2 Communities for three weeks to review the past and look into the future.”
- “In September 2024, the Cameroun Mission entered its Silver Jubilee year with eleven indigenous and nine Indian Sisters.”
- “Refurbishment and development work on the Generalate building was mostly completed during the year and the 2024 Chapter was held in the building with only a small number of delegates and assistants having to be accommodated elsewhere.”
- “Cazenove Capital had been appointed in place of BlackRock Fund Managers Limited and the investment funds were transferred in April 2024 at no cost to the Charity.”
- “Since the year end the Charity has received another £5m from The Congregation of the Daughters of the Cross of Liege (the English Province of the Congregation and a related party) as an endowment.”
