## Companies House changes since it joined the register

2 changes worth checking, checked 31 October 2026, newest first:

- 12 Nov 2025: Company bought back its own shares. Share capital filing recorded on 12 Nov 2025. No new majority owner was notified, so this is usually routine. If it did pass a controlling interest to someone new, the licence does not transfer automatically, and a new licence application may be needed within 20 working days.
- 1 Oct 2025: Director resigned: FREELAND, George Keith. Director change recorded on 1 Oct 2025. If this person was your Authorising Officer, Key Contact or Level 1 user, the change must be reported in the SMS (the Home Office sponsor system) within 20 working days.

Companies House cannot show who holds the licence roles or whether a change was reported to the Home Office, so these are prompts to check against your own records, not findings.
