- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving these financial statements the Trustees have assessed the financial consequences of continued uncertainties yet are confident that the charities financial resources are sufficient to meet its liabilities for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure remains sufficient with the level of the reserves for the charity to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have therefore been prepared on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “In March 2024 the nursery was inspected by Ofsted and once again being assessed as Good in all categories.”
- “The Charity recorded a deficit of £5,241 (2024: deficit of £22,851) during the year, decreasing the unrestricted reserve to £306,469 (2024: £311,710) of which £17,000 has been designated toward future iT upgrades and repairing the garden.”
- “The nursery gained charitable status in 2009. The management and governance systems were then updated.. The Board's review of the Charity's governance arrangements and financial systems was completed in July 2019 and the revised Articles of Association received Charities Commission approval in 2020.”
- “The Children's Centre at the front of the building continues to remain vacant however negotiations about the future use continue although there is some conflict between Oak Hill's charitable objectives and Lewisham's need to maximise income from an asset.”
