Material uncertainty over going concern
The Company ceased operations on 21 March 2023. Therefore, the Company is no longer operating as a going concern. In response to this, we have implemented a comprehensive plan to wind down the activities of the business as a whole. Consequently, we directors have concluded that the going concern basis of accounting is no longer appropriate.

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
