STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2024 |
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 January 2024. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
We aim to present a balanced and comprehensive review of the development of out company during the period and its position at the period end. Our review is consistent with the size and non complex nature of our business and is written in the context of the risks and uncertainties we face. |
During the period, the company continues to operate a number of residential nursing care facilities. |
We consider that our key performance indicators are those that communicate the financial performance and strength of the company as a whole, these being turnover, profits before tax and net assets. In addition to financial indicators, occupancy is also considered to be a key performance indicator. |
Administrative expenditure is in line with the previous period. |
The current economic conditions do provide an element of uncertainly over the level of funding available for the type of services provided by the company. |
In our opinion, the company will have sufficient resources available to manage its business risks and we expect that the present level of activity will be sustained for the foreseeable future. |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The company is affected by a number of factors, the principal ones of which are: |
- The company is exposed to the risk of negative developments in financial markets and the sectors in which it operates, either directly or through the impact on the company's bankers, suppliers or customers. These developments can result in recession, inflation, deflation, restrictions in the availability of credit, impact on demand from customers, problems in the supplier base, increases in financing costs or in the cost of utilities. Such developments might increase operating costs, reduce revenues, lower asset values or result in the businesses being unable to meet in full its strategic objectives. |
- The company operates in a competitive market, and failure to compete effectively in terms of price and quality can have an adverse effect on demand and / or margins. |
The company mitigates risk in several ways: |
- The company has in place an organisational structure with clearly defined lines of responsibility and delegation of authority. There are established policies and procedures for the setting of corporate strategies; financial planning and budgeting; for information and reporting systems; for systems of operational and financial internal control; for assessment of risk; and for monitoring operations and performance. |
- Management and staff at all levels work closely with customers and suppliers to operate as effectively and efficiently as possible, whilst maintaining long term working relationships, innovation and good lines of communication. |
- The company operates a recruitment and selection process to ensure employees are experienced and competent in their work. The workforce is trained to be alert, responsive to customer needs, and to operate in line with the company's corporate objectives. |
POSITION AT THE FINANCIAL REPORTING DATE |
The directors consider the company to be in a solid financial position at the financial position date, with accumulated distributable reserves of approximately £2,828,000. |
Management remains mindful of the competitive environment in which the company operates and the need to maintain close control over the company's working capital and financial position. |

STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2024 |
BORROWINGS AND RISK MANAGEMENT |
The company's principal financial instruments comprise bank balances, trade creditors and trade debtors. The main purpose of these instruments is to raise funds for the group operations and capital investment. The company's approach to managing other risks applicable to the financial instruments minimised the risk to a level that the Directors consider acceptable. |
Trade debtors are managed in respect of credit and cash flow risk by policies concerning the credit offered to customers and the regular monitoring of amounts outstanding for both time and credit limits. |
Trade creditors liquidity risk is managed by ensuring sufficient funds are available to meet amounts due. |

DIRECTORS |
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 February 2023 to the date of this report. |
STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES |
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. |
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to: |
- | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
- | make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
- | prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. |
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |
STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS |
So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he or she ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
UNITED HEALTH GROUP LIMITED |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of United Health Group Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 January 2024 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Changes in Equity, Statement of Cash Flows and Notes to the Statement of Cash Flows, Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). |
In our opinion the financial statements: |
- | give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 January 2024 and of its profit for the year then ended; |
- | have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and |
- | have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. |
Basis for opinion |
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. |
Conclusions relating to going concern |
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. |
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. |
Other information |
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon. |
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. |
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. |
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 |
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: |
- | the information given in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
- | the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors. |
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: |
- | adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or |
- | the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or |
- | certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or |
- | we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
UNITED HEALTH GROUP LIMITED |
Responsibilities of directors |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page four, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. |
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. |
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements |
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. |
We have identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our general commercial experience, knowledge of the sector, a review of regulatory and legal correspondence and through discussions with Directors and other management obtained as part of the work required by auditing standards. We have also discussed with the Directors and other management the policies and procedures relating to compliance with laws and regulations. We communicated laws and regulations throughout the team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit. |
The potential impact of different laws and regulations varies considerably. Firstly, the company is subject to laws and regulations that directly impact the financial statements (for example financial reporting legislation) and we have assessed the extent of compliance with such laws as part of our financial statements audit. We evaluated management incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements, (including risk of override of controls) and determined that the principal risks were related to management bias in accounting estimate and judgemental areas of the financial statements such as depreciation of tangible fixed asset, as well as the risk of inappropriate journal entries to increase reported profitability. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included the identification and testing of material and unusual journal entries and challenging management on key accounting estimates, assumptions and judgements made in preparation of the financial statements. |
Secondly, the company is subject to other laws and regulations where the consequence for non-compliance could have a material effect on the amounts or disclosures in the financial statements. We identified compliance with Care Quality Commission (CQC) regulations as most likely to have such an effect. |
Auditing standards limit the required audit procedures to identify non-compliance with these laws and regulations to enquiry of the Directors and other management and inspection. We inspected the latest CQC inspection reports from visits in the year for any instances of non-compliance and discussed with management the impact of the outcomes of these visits on operations of the care homes. Through these procedures, if we became aware of any non-compliance, we considered the impact on the procedures performed on the related financial statement items. |
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. The further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it. As with any audit, there is a greater risk of non-detection of irregularities as these may involve collusion, intentional omissions of the override of internal controls. |
We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations. |
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Auditors. |

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Significant judgements and estimates |
In the application of the company's accounting policies, management is required to make judgements, |
estimates and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from |
other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors |
that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are covered within the accounting policies: |
(i) The annual depreciation charge for tangible assets is sensitive to changes in the estimated useful economic lives and residual values of the assets. The useful economic lives and residual values are re-assessed annually. They are amended when necessary to reflect current estimates, based on technological advancement, future investments, economic utilisation and the physical condition of the assets. See note 8 for the carrying amount of the property plant and equipment, and accounting policy note for the usual economic lives of each class of assets. |
(ii) The company makes an estimate of the recoverable value of trade and other debtors. When assessing impairment of trade and other debtors, management considers factors including the current credit rating of the debtor, ageing profile of debtors and historical experience. See note 9 for the net carrying amount of the debtors and associated impairment provision. |
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects. |
Turnover |
Turnover is measure at fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for services rendered in the provision of care. |
Turnover is recognised in the period in which the services are provide and comprises residents fees and other ancillary services. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Tangible fixed assets |
Freehold property | - |
Furniture & fittings | - |
No depreciation is charged on freehold property on the grounds of immateriality. Freehold property is subject to regular maintenance and repair such that in the opinion of the directors the residual value is not materially different from the value in the financial statements and has a long useful economic life. The directors consider the need for impairment at each period end. |
Impairment of fixed assets |
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. |
For the purpose of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, as estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash- generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that included the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group assets. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date. |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position date. |
Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
3. | TURNOVER |
The turnover and profit before taxation are attributable to the one principal activity of the company. |
