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 | -4.6% | 23.3% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 65.6% | 29.1% | |
| Current ratio | 1.52x | 3.44x |
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.

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“To support the going concern basis of preparation, the trustees have prepared cash flow forecasts, which include the use of reasonable downside scenarios for sensitivity analysis. These cash flow forecasts show that the charity has sufficient resources to meet obligations as they fall due and as such the charity has the ability to continue as a going concern for the 12 months from date of signing.”
Significant events
- “Over the past year, Caring Breaks provided respite sessions on a weekly basis for 160 family carers combined with social and recreational activities for 105 adults with a learning disability. In addition, between April 2024 and March 2025, we provided 16 weekend breaks giving an extended period of respite to 139 family carers and attended by 98 adults with a learning disability.”
- “The organisation's strategy is to grow and develop the service to reach more people and expand the service into other health trust areas whilst maintaining the service for existing clients in Belfast, Bangor and Lisburn. Plans beyond 2025 include extending the service to more families wishing to purchase respite breaks via Direct Payments/Self-Directed Support.”
