Notes to the Financial Statements

Year ended 31 October 2025

1. General information

The company is a private company limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is 7th Floor, Trinity Gate, West Street, Gateshead, NE8 1AD, Tyne & Wear.

2. Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with Section 1A of FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland'.

3. Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity, rounded to the nearest £1.

Going concern

The financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis. In the directors' opinion the company can rely on the financial support of its shareholders and is expected to trade profitably in future periods which will enable the company to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

Revenue recognition

Turnover represents revenue, excluding value added tax and trade discounts, derived from services provided during the period.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.

Amortisation

Amortisation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful life of that asset as follows:

	Development costs	-	16% straight line

If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in amortisation rate, useful life or residual value of an intangible asset, the amortisation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates.

Research and development

Website development expenditure incurred on clearly defined projects whose outcome can be assessed with reasonable certainty is carried forward as an intangible fixed asset and amortisation is charged over a period of six years.

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 purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an 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 includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.

Financial instruments

A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
