Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. There are no material departures from FRS102

Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.

Going concern

At the year-end, the company held a cash balance of £17,261, providing a foundation for its ongoing operations. While the company reported net liabilities of £1,052,375 (2024: £265,794) and a net loss of £146,581 (2024: £301,512).

Despite these accounting adjustments, the directors remain confident in the company’s financial resilience. With continued support from the parent company and their own commitment, they believe the company has sufficient working capital to meet its obligations and continue trading for the foreseeable future.

Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, and no adjustments have been made that would be necessary if the company were unable to continue as a going concern.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Year Ended 30 September 2025

Key accounting judgements and sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the company's accounting policies management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values 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. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The key judgements that have a significant impact on the financial statements are described below:

Leasehold land and buildings
There is an element of judgment involved in the accounting treatment of the leasehold land and buildings. Management determined that the lease meets the definition of a finance lease under FRS 102 and should therefore be recognised in the financial statements as both an asset and a corresponding finance lease liability. In assessing the fair value of the leasehold property, and consequently the lease liability, management concluded that the present value of the minimum lease payments exceeded the fair value of the leasehold property. As a result, the fair value of the leasehold property was used as the basis for recognition in the accounts. Carrying value of leasehold land and buildings at year end is £5,689,181 (2024 - £5,592,058).

The key estimates that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are described below:

Group recharges
Cost re-allocations are required in order to fairly reflect the cost of management services borne by group companies and entities under common control. These are based on judgemental estimates of the proportion of management time spent in areas of the business which are different from where the payroll cost is originally processed, and where joint contracts of employment are in place. The carrying value of amounts owed to/from group companies and entities under common control can be found in note 7 and 8.

Intercompany loan interest
The business trades as part of a group. In addition to recharges of central costs and other trading settlements, management charges are raised to reflect the cost of funding arranged at a group level. Significant balances with group and other connected parties arise, these balances are due after more than one year. The lending company charges interest on these loans using a market rate for an equivalent third party loan. The carrying value of amounts owed to/from group companies and entities under common control can be found in note 7 and 8.

Finance lease liability
The finance liability in note 9 of £7,240,699 (2024 - £6,939,529) is calculated based on discounting future minimum lease payments over the term of the lease using the company's obtainable borrowing rate. A finance charge is then accounted for to unwind this discount each year.

Management are required to make estimates as to the outflow of economic benefits which will be required to settle an obligation in making provisions.

Year Ended 30 September 2025

Revenue recognition

Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the provision of services in the ordinary course of the Company's activities.

Income relates to monies received for the provision of care home services and is recognised on a straight line basis over the period of residence.

Tax

Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a change attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.

The current corporation tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates taxable income.

Deferred tax is recognised on all timing differences at the balance sheet date unless indicated below. Timing differences are differences between taxable profits and the results as stated in the profit and
loss account and other comprehensive income. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and a valuation allowance is set up against deferred tax assets so that the net carrying amount equals the highest amount that is more likely than not to be recovered based on current or future taxable profit.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.

Depreciation

Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Asset class

Depreciation method and rate

Leasehold land

Not depreciated

Leasehold property

Over the life of the lease

Freehold property

2% straight line

Furniture, fittings & equipment

20-100% straight line

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less subsequent accumulated amortisation.
Costs include software development expenditure.

Amortisation

Amortisation is provided on intangible assets so as to write off the cost, less any estimated residual value, over their useful life as follows:

Asset class

Amortisation method and rate

Software

20% straight line

Year Ended 30 September 2025

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

Leases

Leases in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee.

Assets held under finance leases are recognised at the lower of their fair value at inception of the lease and the present value of the minimum lease payments. These assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet as a finance lease obligation.

Lease payments are apportioned between finance costs in the profit and loss account and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

Defined contribution pension obligation

A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.

Financial instruments

Classification
The company holds the following financial instruments:

• Short term trade and other debtors and creditors;
• Loans with group companies and entities under common control; and
• Cash and bank balances.

All financial instruments are classified as basic.

 Recognition and measurement
The company has chosen to apply the recognition and measurement principles in FRS102.

Financial instruments are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument and derecognised when in the case of assets, the contractual rights to cash flows from the assets expire or substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to another party, or in the case of liabilities, when the company’s obligations are discharged, expire or are cancelled.

Except for loans with group companies and entities under common control, such instruments are initially measured at transaction price, including transaction costs, and are subsequently carried at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received, after taking account of impairment adjustments.

Loans with group companies and entities under common control are initially measured at transaction price, including transaction costs, and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
