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

- “In recognition of this milestone, HELP commissioned an impact study, which included input from partners, past service users and current service users as well as Directors and staff. A copy is available on our website. HELP also commissioned a stain glass panel, designed by young people, to remember those we have lost through the years.”
