- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “The company's service delivery and project teams continued to provide a class leading service to individual client sectors, ensuring the successful delivery of embedded contracts. Our Compliance offering continues to go from strength to strength, cementing our nationwide coverage and ensuring clients achieve all their safety obligations.”
- “The business has continued with its commitment to social responsibility, having successfully delivered numerous community projects throughout the UK, sponsoring local teams in our areas of work, and fundraising for Derian House Children's Hospice and other local charities.”
