- 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 charity changed its name from St David's Home for Disabled Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen to St David's (1918) Charitable Trust, which was certified at Companies House on 6 September 2024 and approved by the Charity Commission on 1 October 2024.”
- “The principal activity of the charity was to tie up any loose ends following the sale of St David's Home in July 2024.”
- “It is envisaged that a new strategy will be developed during the year 2025-26.”
- “The trustees now plan to have conversations with a small number of charities with similar purposes to its own.”
