## Companies House changes since it joined the register

1 change worth checking, checked 25 October 2026, newest first:

- 19 Nov 2024: New shares issued (allotment). Share capital filing recorded on 19 Nov 2024. 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.

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.
