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
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the next 12 months. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Stepping Stones has continued to adapt and respond to the changing needs of children and families living in North Edinburgh. We have developed new pieces of work with partners across both the public and third sector, increasing service provision for families with children under 5.”
- “We expanded our Family Wellbeing team through securing Whole Family Wellbeing funding to deliver The Family Hub. This is delivered in collaboration with six other partners with the hope of achieving system change to ensure that families with children under three have access to the right support at the right time.”
- “For the year ended 31 March 2025 there was also a surplus of £7,393. This is due to an increase in income from £478,152 to £600,981. Expenses also increased from £534,728 to £593,588.”
