THE MALVERNIAN SOCIETY LIMITED
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity transferred its tangible assets, investments, and cash to Malvern College during the year, leaving total reserves of £3,347 at the year end. The trustees expect the charity to close by mid-2026, and consequently, the financial statements were prepared on a basis other than going concern. The independent auditor noted this basis but did not modify their opinion.
