Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' Section 1A and the Companies Act 2006.
Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except any items disclosed in the accounting policies as being shown at fair value and are presented in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Summary of significant accounting policies
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.
Going concern
The company had net assets at 31 December 2025 amounting to £3,601,570 including cash at bank of £567,287.
The company has continued to receive rental and investment income subsequent to 31 December 2025 and the directors believe this will continue.

Accordingly, the directors continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
Revenue recognition
Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable in respect of rental income arising in the ordinary course of the company's activities, dividends received or receivable during the year and interest receivable, on listed and unlisted investments.

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2025
Tax
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a charge attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.
The current income 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 in respect of all timing differences between taxable profits and profits reported in the financial statements.
Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised when it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.
Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are stated in the statement of financial position 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 over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
|
Asset class |
Depreciation method and rate |
|
Furniture, fittings and equipment |
20% straight line |
Investment property
Investments
Fixed asset investments, other than programme related investments, are included at market value at the balance sheet date. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and their market value at the start of the year, or their subsequent cost, and are charged or credited to the profit or loss in the period of disposal.
Unrealised gains and losses represent the movement in market values during the year and are credited or charged to the profit or loss based on the market value at the year end.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Equity instruments are measured at the fair value of the cash or other resources received or receivable, net of the direct costs of issuing the equity instruments. If payment is deferred and the time value of money is material, the initial measurement is on a present value basis.
Dividends
Dividend distribution to the company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the financial statements in the reporting period in which the dividends are declared.

Prior period adjustment |
During the year it was identified that certain rental income attributable to the year ended 31 December 2024 had been carried forward as deferred income. This has been corrected in these financial statements and the comparative figures have been restated.
The effect of this adjustment is to increase turnover for the year ended 31 December 2024 by £60,000 and decrease the accruals and deferred income balance, and consequently net assets, at that date by £60,000.
During the year it was also identified that provisions for liabilities relating to a historic deferred tax liability in respect of the effect of capital allowances over depreciation had not been recognised. This has also been corrected in these financial statements and the comparative figures have been restated.
The effect of this adjustment is increase the provisions for liabilities balance as of 1 January 2024 and 31 December 2024 by £50,133 and decrease the retained earnings, and consequently net assets, at those dates by £50,133.
