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

“The management team have prepared projections for the period to 31 March 2026. The Trustees have reviewed the projections, based on this review, have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operation for a period of at least 12 months from the approval of the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The service has faced significant funding challenges and underwent organisational changes to better manage the community needs and these funding challenges.”
- “Fund transfers were made from the Lewis, Harris and Barra Capital Funds to Unrestricted Funds, being the transfer of fixed assets which were purchased with grant assistance. The asset-monitoring period is now complete and all terms of the grant have been met, so trustees have agreed on a transfer to unrestricted funds in accordance with the Charity SORP section 2.12.”
