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
“The trustees have considered the future financial position and risks to the company and have reasonable expectation that the charity will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and have, thereafter, used the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “During the year to March 2025, Hillcrest Futures changed the method of monitoring risks, moving to an application within Decision Time, the Board Servicing Portal.”
- “The current systems in use by Futures to record, store and analyse data are no longer fit for purpose and are inefficient to support quality, cost effective service delivery. The Futures Board agreed capital investment in IT hardware and new systems to improve efficiency across Hillcrest Futures to mitigate these risks. This project will be completed by March 2026.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
