RAMBLERS TRAVEL AGENCY LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF RAMBLERS TRAVEL AGENCY LIMITED
UNDER SECTION 449 OF THE COMPANIES ACT 2006
We have audited the financial statements of Ramblers Travel Agency Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 October 2025, which comprise the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes, 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 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF RAMBLERS TRAVEL AGENCY LIMITED (CONTINUED)
UNDER SECTION 449 OF THE COMPANIES ACT 2006
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. 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. 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 course of 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.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Directors' Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
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 Directors' Report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF RAMBLERS TRAVEL AGENCY LIMITED (CONTINUED)
UNDER SECTION 449 OF THE COMPANIES ACT 2006
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 an Auditors' Report 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.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
- We exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit; - We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the deliberate override of internal control; - We obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control; - We evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made; - We assess the risk of management override of controls, including testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, and evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business; - We review the scope of the Company's compliance with The Package and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018 (“PTRs”) and sample test relevant documentation to assess this and the effectiveness of its control environment; - We request and review the minutes of management meetings, and assess any matters identified not already provided for or disclosed that may materially impact the financial statements; - We review the Company's relationships with related parties, identifying and disclosing transactions during the year and balances at year-end with such parties.
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 Auditors' Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2025
As disclosed in the Directors' Report, the principal activity of the Company in the year under review was that of a seat broker to organise the air travel arrangements of its holding company, RWH Travel Limited, under the TOMS VAT Transport Company Scheme.
The Company is a private company limited by shares and is incorporated in England. The address of the Company's principal place of business and registered office is Lemsford Mill, Lemsford Village, Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire, AL8 7TR.
2.Accounting policies
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland' and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. The disclosure requirements of Section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The Board and management meet regularly during the year and continue to review the Group’s financial position, budgets and forecasts in order to neutralise the potential financial impact from any significant downturn in trading.
As a result of these reviews and projections, the Board and management have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being at least the following 12 months from the signing of these financial statements. This is supported by the strong balance sheet with a healthy mix of fixed assets and net current assets, the recent trading performance and the current bookings already taken for 2026. The Company is well placed to meet and service the additional volume. Consequently, the directors believe that it is still appropriate to apply the going concern basis for the foreseeable future.
