What the accounts disclose
“During the year the trustees identified certain presentational and classification errors within the prior year financial statements. These errors were not material to the financial position, results, or cash flows of the charity. Comparative figures for the year ended 31 December 2024 have therefore been restated where necessary to ensure consistency and to improve the quality and clarity of financial reporting.” — page 64
