Going concern
Affirmed

“The Trustees have reviewed the financial position of the Charity and Group, including consideration of downside scenarios and potential pressures arising from the funding environment and wider economic conditions. Based on this assessment, the Trustees consider it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of preparation and are satisfied that, based on current forecasts and available resources, no material uncertainties exist that would cast significant doubt on the Charity's or Group's ability to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future.”
