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

“Based on these projections the company will continue to operate within its current facilities. As a result of this, shareholder support, forecast expectation, and experience the directors are confident that the adoption of the assumption of going concern is applicable.”

Significant events

• “The company had a challenging year, with the business experiencing a significant and protracted reduction in demand. Turnover reduced by £6,224,286 to £38,542,658 (2023: £44,766,944). The market contraction adversely affected labour utilisation which, when coupled with increases in input costs, most notably government increase to national living wage, resulted in an operating loss of £2,303,983 (2023: £591,635).”
• “The market dynamics noted above have continued in the early part of the 2025 financial year. The 2025 financial year is further affected by the significant cost increase arising from the rise in the National Living Wage and employers National Insurance Contributions.”
