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
Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2024-03-31 | 2025-03-31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Net margin | -11.0% | 3.2% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 401.6% | 183.4% | |
| Current ratio | 1.36x | 5.09x |
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.

Significant events
- “During the year Paul Warner joined the Board. Unfortunately, after the year end we saw the departure of our former Chair, David Umpleby and our Managing Director, Claire Hilton.

Alongside this, after the year end we extended a warm welcome to Chris Browne, who joined us as Interim Managing Director.”
- “The opening of the new Lisson Grove Café, part of the Westminster City Council partnership, saw new opportunity for staff and trainees and the continued expansion of Mail Out and increased external garden maintenance opportunities at Mill Lane saw new services and approaches being tested.”
