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

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

“The trustees have prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis as they do not intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease its operations, and as they have concluded that the charitable company's financial position means that this is realistic. They have also concluded that there are no material uncertainties that could have cast significant doubt over its ability to continue as a going concern for at least a year from the date of approval of the financial statements ("the going concern period").”

Significant events

• “The year 2024/25 saw changes to the Care Reform (Scotland) Bill as it made its way through the Scottish Parliament, changes to workforce regulation by the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC), and the ratification of the Health and Care (Staffing) (Scotland) Act 2019.”
• “The National Insurance Contributions (Secondary Class 1 Contributions) Bill made its way through the UK Parliament, and like other providers in the social care sector this change will have a direct impact on our staff costs from April 2025.”
• “The year also saw us conclude a strategic project to reshape our services with a continued focus on high quality care and support, compliance and improvement across our organisation.”
• “We collaborated with our colleagues in housing over the year to influence the design of 33 new Livingwell homes in Edinburgh.”
• “The Care Inspectorate inspected eight of our services over the year. Out of our 18 live inspection reports, more than 83% received grades 5 (very good) or 6 (excellent) for the key themes inspected by the Care Inspectorate.”
• “Our Duty of Candour report was published this year, showing there were no unintended or unexpected incidents that caused harm or death to a person we work for.”
