Report of the Directors

for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 March 2025.

DIRECTORS

The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 April 2024 to the date of this report.

T J Sheppard

N D Simms

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES

The directors are responsible for preparing 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), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. 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 ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information.

AUDITORS

The auditors, Lindley Adams Limited Chartered Accountants, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:

T J Sheppard - Director

23 January 2026

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of

Carver Engineering Access & Safety

Solutions Limited

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Carver Engineering Access & Safety Solutions Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Changes in Equity and 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 March 2025 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 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 Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

- | the Report of the Directors has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of

Carver Engineering Access & Safety

Solutions Limited

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 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; or

- | the directors were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Report of the Directors.

Responsibilities of directors

As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page two, 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.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of

Carver Engineering Access & Safety

Solutions Limited

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.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

As part of our audit, we determined a level for materiality and assessed the risk of material misstatement in the financial statements. Based on our understanding of the company and discussions with the management, we gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the company and the industry in which it operates.

We identified the laws and regulations which we considered to have a direct effect on the financial statements and considered that the most significant are the Companies Act 2006, Financial Reporting Standards and UK tax legislation. The engagement partner assessed that the engagement team had the appropriate competence and capabilities to identify or recognise non-compliance with the laws and regulations.

We enquired with management and those charged with governance as to any known instances of non-compliance or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations including fraud. We also designed specific appropriate audit procedures including:

- Agreeing financial statement disclosures to supporting documentation.

- Analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships.

- Testing appropriateness of journal entries.

- Review of accounting estimates for potential bias.

- Enquire with management as to actual and potential litigation and claims.

- Review of correspondence.

We are not aware of any actual or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations, and we are not responsible for preventing or detecting non-compliance with all laws and regulations. The primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with management and those charged with governance.

There are inherent limitations in audit procedures and there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected material misstatements within the financial statements, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in accordance with ISA's UK.

The further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations are from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we are to become aware of it. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk due to error as fraud may involve a deliberate concealment or collusion.

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.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
