official documents show.

Maytrix Group Ltd recorded a £165,000 fall in net assets — a company’s financial items minus what it owes to other organisations or people.  

The figure dropped from £170,333 to £5,384 between 2022 and 2023 according to the firm’s accounts for the period.

The amount of cash at hand and in the bank also reduced, from £228,797 to £39,496, the document filed yesterday shows.

Hannah Ingram-Moore, the record-breaking fundraiser’s youngest daughter, and her husband, Colin, are directors of the business, which is registered to the for-sale family home in Marston Moretaine, Bedfordshire. 

The ‘filleted’ accounts, where certain information is not sent to Companies House, also show that the company has reduced its creditors’ balance, from £291,781 to £153,939.  

ALREWAS, STAFFORDSHIRE - NOVEMBER 04: Hannah Ingram-Moore, daughter of Captain Sir Tom Moore, poses for a photograph in front of the sign marking the path named in her father's honour on November 04, 2021 in Alrewas, Staffordshire. Ms Ingram-Moore, a daughter of the World War II veteran who famously raised money for the NHS amid the Covid-19 pandemic, visited the Arboretum for the first time to inspect the path named in his honour. If visitors walk Captain Sir Tom Moore Way and take a connecting path to the Burma Star Memorial - an award given to Captain Tom - they will cover 250 metres, the same distance as Captain Tom walked each day for his fundraising challenge.

Captain Tom became a national figurehead by walking laps of his garden at the Bedfordshire coach house.  

Originally aiming to raise £1,000 for NHS Charities Together, the amount rocketed to £38.9 million within three weeks. 

A foundation run by his family continued to raise money in the Second World War veteran’s name after his death on February 2, 2021, aged 100. 

At the start of this month, the Charity Commission barred Ms Ingram-Moore and her husband from being charity trustees as part of an ongoing inquiry into the foundation. In a statement, the family said they ‘fundamentally disagree’ with the decision.

The statutory inquiry had considered the relationship between the foundation and ‘private companies connected to the Ingram-Moore family’. 

The charity’s accounts covering the 12 months to May 2021 showed that payments were made to Maytrix for website costs (£5,030), photography (£550), office rental (£4,500), telephone costs (£656) and third-party consultancy fees (£27,205). 

The costs were initially funded by Maytrix on behalf of the charity, and reimbursed when sufficient funds were available, the document states. 

In July 2022, Ms Ingram-Moore said the payments to Maytrix were justifiable start-up expenses and were fully transparent on the commission’s website. 

She told the : ‘We are not going anywhere, we have our ambitions, and we absolutely believe we can create a positive impact with the foundation.’

The latest accounts were published yesterday under Mr Ingram-Moore’s name after being approved by the company’s board.
