- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Trustees have reviewed the organisation's budget and financial plans including scenarios on registry, journals and conference income. They have concluded that there are sufficient reserves held at year end to create a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and that it is therefore appropriate to prepare the charity and group financial statements on a going concern basis.”
