RHS SPECIAL EVENTS LIMITED
Company number 03119017 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
RHS Special Events Limited is a profitable, cash-generative subsidiary of The Royal Horticultural Society, structured to channel event profits to its parent via Gift Aid. While the negative net asset position (£11K) appears concerning, it reflects the distribution policy rather than trading weakness—the company delivers consistent £3M+ operating profits with 70% margins. Credit approval is recommended conditionally upon obtaining a parent company guarantee, as the intercompany dependency (£3M demand loan) and Gift Aid extraction create structural exposure without formal parental backing.

What it does
The Company organises gala events for fundraising purposes at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show and RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival. RHS Chelsea Flower Show returned to its usual May timing and once again the Gala event was a sell out and hugely successful. A new concept event was tested for the first time at RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival with mixed success.
